An epic enemies-to-lovers fantasy
romance perfect for fans of Jennifer L. Armentrout, Raven Kennedy, and Sarah J
Maas.

After spending years training to
defend my people from our enemies, I never expected that my enemy would be the
one keeping me alive.

Athos is the last human city. A
treaty with the Fae keeps the fae, the vampires, and the wolf shifters at bay,
while we fight against the dragons at our border. Being a human in this world
is dangerous and we all make sacrifices to survive.

When the delegation sent by the Fae
King arrives to claim the human tributes required by our treaty, I never
expected to forge a connection with their leader.

Ryvin is as dangerous as he is
handsome. I know he’s my enemy, and I know I’m supposed to hate him, but with
each passing day, he’s more difficult to resist.

But things are changing in Athos.
Humans no longer want to bend to the Fae King.

Alliances blur and centuries of lies
begin to unravel.

And I’m faced with a choice.

No matter how much I hate him, Ryvin
might be the key to preventing war.

But it may mean sacrificing everything….

Kingdom of Blood and Salt is the
first book in a fantasy romance trilogy with fae, vampires, and shifters. This
enemies to lovers series contains violence, mature language, and spice. This is
a NA/adult fantasy romance and steam level will increase as the series
progresses. Mind the cliff.

 

Rating: 5/5 stars
This isn’t my first book by Alexis Calder and I have to say that I’ve never been disappointed by the author before and to my relief I absolutely loved “Kingdom of Blood and Salt”. Everything was just great, the atmosphere, the female main character and the relationships mentioned in the book. Of course there were also some parts that I didn’t like that much or that I think could have been put aside but I enjoyed my time a lot while reading this story! Which is also why this was definitely worth its 5 stars. 
Unfortunately, I can’t go into many details in my review because I would spoiler you but be prepared for some great but dark adventure as well as a cliffhanger that just makes you impatient for the second book to arrive.
If you are a fan of new adult fantasy books with some spice in them, be prepared to find a new favorite series!
