Part 6:

This ending though!

Part 6 ended with a bang! Or a scream really😳

Great creative writing, fun and loving characters ( Zane was the best, sorry Brant).

Tanya was fierce and took no bullshit. Great storyline, perfect chemistry between the characters and beyond sexy!

Le sigh...

I went on this journey with these characters not really knowing what to expect. I'd never read this author before but I LOVED forced marriages. Call me old school with the whole bodice ripper mentality, but I love when a woman is picked and a dominant male insists on her accepting him. If that makes me a non-feminist then label away but I love me some barbaric manly chest pounding heroes. This is my cup of tea and I love how the author had a very effortless way of world building and bringing the story to a full arc. I'm a fan of the serial format because I'm a busy girl and I haven't got all day to sit and read most of the time, I get the weekends. This is one of my favorite serial series to date. I love how Tanya didn't give into the men, they were forced to work together for the sake of the women they loved, and for their race of people. It wasn't just a 'forced' situation. They all needed one another and sometimes stubborn people need to realize that they get along with someone that someone isn't an enemy just because your daddies didn't like one another. Zane seemed to get this but Brant had trouble and it took losing his woman to realize all this. This was a great story that had me laughing, crying, and falling totally in love with this author and her world!

New Moon is the sixth and sadly the final enticing book in the Chosen By The Vampire Kings series. I am in love this amazing paranormal romantic series. Don’t worry we will continue to see the characters in the other books in this series.
With smoking hot dominant alpha males in all shapes and sizes with Ménage à trois, MFM love triangle, Vampires, Shifters, and Elves. It is erotic, sexy, sizzling, and everything to burn the sheets and everywhere else in between.
This original storyline has two smoking hot vampires Kings, mortal enemies who want the same thing. These men are ruthless, vicious, power players, and violent. They love hard and fast, with their whole heart. They love these incredible sassy, sexy, strong females that own them. The chemistry is off the charts and then some more.
This captivating excellently woven tale sees a tangled web of lies, deceit, suspense, drama and love. The characters each have their own voice in this series. I love that we get their POV because we get a feel for who they are.
There is lots of action, danger and war around every corner but given all that there are plenty of witty moments and humour that will have you laughing out loud. Zane and Becky crack me up and Tanya gets her vampire sandwich.
You need to get your hot little hands on this incredible original paranormal romance series today.

Not enough story to be stretched out over 6 books

Well I've just finished the sixth and final book in this series and I have to be honest and say I found it all disappointing, from the blurb on the first book it was inevitable how this series would turn out and while I appreciate very few books are original and the enjoyment is in the journey there didn't actually seem to be a lot here.
In my review of the first book I mentioned that I'd originally skipped past it assuming I'd already read it because it seemed so similar to 'Claimed by the Vampire King' by Susan G. Charles. Since this was spread out over 6 books I assumed there would be a lot more to the story, more depth and development with a whole new supernatural world to describe.
I read this series partly because I was intrigued since it sounded so similar to 'Claimed by the Vampire King' partly because it was available on kindle unlimited but mainly because I was waiting for a book to come out, I've been waiting months for this book which was due out today and I didn't want to be in the middle of another book so I figured very short books were my best option.

Stars: 4

Overall: Zane and Brant finally realize what will happen if they really lost Tanya, so they give her a little space after her accident but have a secret plan to win her back. After they get the all clear that she is good to go, they seduce her as only male alphas can. They finally get to have their bonding ritual and really become the couple that I was waiting for through this whole series.

Pros: I loved that Tanya stayed true to herself throughout the whole book. I really loved that both guys finally put their differences aside for the sake of Tanya and their love for her. The sex in the story was romantic but raunchy at the same time. This was the perfect ending for this story. I do hope that in future books we get to find out what they are having and how their future turns out.

Cons: I personally didn't have any cons with this story.

Characters: Brant ; Tanya ; Zane

Page Turner: Yes

Series Cont: No, but another side story starts!

Recommend: Yes

FANG-FREAKIN-TASTIC!!!
Great balls of fire! I am so in love with this series! Ms. Hartnady continues the magical journey of this series with New Moon, the sixth and final installment of this series. This is, hands down, one of the best series I've ever read. Exciting! Action Packed! Fast Paced! Smart! Original! Suspenseful! Powerful! Gripping! Riveting! Thrilling! Addictive! Captivating! Funny! Endearing! Arousing! Romantic! Sexy! Steamy! And did I say hot? Oh yeah! This story has it all. Ms. Hartnady has once again demonstrated her exceptional writing ability and talent by delivering a masterpiece of wonder, thrill and entertainment. Both the story and dialog flow beautifully, twisting and turning with surprise elements at each turn. Such a delight! The characters are well developed, intriguing and engaging. They come to life and jump off the page while teasing and enticing your imagination. The story enthralls you with its magic and fantasy. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. Such a wild and wonderful ride! Two handsome, sexy, alpha vampire kings, Zane and Brant, totally different but both desirable-each longing to make the same human woman their mate and queen. Beautiful, sassy human, Tanya, now pregnant and torn between love for both men. Will Zane and Brant make it through the mating ceremony without killing each other? And which of her lovers is the father of her baby? And can she love either if they try to destroy each other? Will Zane and Brant be able to win her back and regain her trust and her love? Or will Tanya refuse them both and raise her child all on her own? Then, throw in a nympho best friend, Becky, who wants to have sex with every vampire in sight and a beautiful elven princess, Esral, given by her Father to the Vampire Kings to be one of their brides and oh my! What a recipe for disaster! Wonderful cast of amazing characters-check! Mystery, suspense, romance and steamy sex-check, check, check and check!!! And did I mention a ménage trois? Yeah baby! That and a whole lot more, in spades! Oh yeah! This is the sixth installment in this series so it is not a stand alone book. Do yourself a solid and read them all. But I just love serials. The anticipation and excitement created by each installment is like having great sex with a blindfold! And then you can't wait to do it again! Hubba! Hubba! And never fear my lovelies, if you have become addicted to these characters, as have I, Ms Hartnady has announced the release of Mated to the Vampire Kings in 2015. And we will also see some of our favorite characters in another new series, Stolen by the Alpha Wolf. Hmmm......I wonder who that could be? Oh!Oh!Oh! I can hardly wait!

So I have a lot of thoughts about this serial series. There will likely be spoilers.

First of all, I'm not a fan of serials. At all. I'm not even sure HOW I found these books. With all the books on my TBR I chose to read these as a quick in between. There were vampires and the promise of m/f/m after all, how could I resist? Lol

My expectations for these were pretty low, I just wanted something quick and hot. I ended up reading straight through them AND Kidnapped by the Alpha very quickly. I ended up really kind of loving the whole series!

That's not to say that they're perfect, they're definitely not. I almost stopped reading at book one. I feel like they're a bit rushed, there were things that didn't make a lot of sense to me, scenes that I felt SHOULD have been in there but weren't, and some of the dialogue was hardcore eye roll inducing.

All of that aside, my the time I got to the end, I couldn't put them down! I'd give the series as a whole a solid 4 stars, and if I could overlook some obvious things and just base it on how I FEEL, I'd say even higher. I really think that with a little fine tuning, this would make a really awesome book one to a great series. There are SO many possibilities from this series on, so many other stories and characters to expand off of, without being confusing.

I know that there are a lot of authors who feel very strongly against Kindle Unlimited, but this series is a perfect example of why I love it. I would never have read these if they hadn't been on KU. Not that they wouldn't have still struck my interest, but there are just way too many books out there right now. I have so many I've bought and haven't read, and even more on my list to buy. I'd have never messed with a serial by someone I've never heard of. Because these were on KU, I read them, loved them, will continue to read all the next installments, and if Charlene decides to not put new books in KU, I will buy them. She's become an author that I will follow

I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.

FINALLY! NOW YOU BIG BUMBLING BEEFCAKES GET IT! WASTED SO MUCH TIME FIGHTING. Brain farts while reading Part 6

I must admit I was expecting Tanya to be preggers with twins but so far its just one. Still wondering who the father is though. Hoping for a whole new twist to this because it seems to me this story is far from over. But seeing as there's a new spin-off series coming up I guess we will be hearing more about the Vampire Kings and their mate. Glad that they finally came to senses and agreed to do what was best.

Looking forward to Steph's story (gosh that's going to be a complicated one) and possibly more on Xavier and Esral

Excellent Conclusion!

Sometimes the wait is worth it and this installment most definitely was. The Vampire Kings have hated each other, fought with and alongside each other, and finally learned to live with each...more or less. Tanya has been terrified, jealous, had her feelings hurt and finally put her foot down vehemently. The conclusion to this particular serial was close to perfect in my opinion; things weren't wrapped up too perfectly, questions were answered and more were asked (great segue into a new serial featuring a favorite character!). In the end I got me HEA or a vampire sandwich in Sweetwater-ese!

Let's first begin by saying- I received a copy of this book for an honest review on what I thought about it.
Now let me say- Holy Hell. Tear jerker and absolute hilarious book!
I love this series more than I have loved a book series in A WHILE! I am so glad I began reading it and have had the privilege to read Part 6!
Zane and Brant really surprised me in this book and made me an extremely happy reader!
Tanya... Poor Tanya! She had a tough time in this book! I feel for her completely. I was terrified for her for awhile.
I absolutely cannot wait to read Mated to the Vampire Kings! Great series! Great book! Totally worth the $.99 ya'll!
I HIGHLY recommend this series!

Okay, this author is GREAT! The only issue I have is that I want to read all the parts at once. Both kings are strong Vampires although Brant got on my nerves to no end in this installment. The whole series is wonderful, and I do believe that once the series is done and Charlene sells all parts as a boxed set, this will be even more enjoyable for the readers who haven't had the chance to read it yet.

All the characters in this series feels like I got to know them personally. The sex is hot!!! The writing is fantastic! The action is heart racing. What more can I say.

So happy this isn't the last book.

After reading book 5 I knew this story was coming to an end like they all should. But I was in away torn. I didn't want this to be over. What about Xavier? Stephany? What about the wolves? And her best friend Becky? Then that's when I found book 1 of the wolf coven. This "last" book was a hard read. Tanya now pregnant left them and went home. Brant and Zane try to win her back until something happens to Tanya and the baby that could change everything. This book will have you on the edge of your seat until you find out if one might die.

This was ok. The males have been stupid and Tanya ends up leaving. They work to earn her trust back to mate her. There is a lot of sex but overall the book and series is still good. I'm super curious what has happened to Stephany how was she "accidentally" taken by the wolves? Turns out she has her own serial which I will probably read. Especially since I read A Mate for York before the entire serial. I'm trying to see how everything happened and then reread that book. Still the plot is minimal but still interesting.

I recived this book in exchange for an honest review.
As for all of the other books in this series, this one was THE HOTTEST!

Not like the other books though, in this there's not that much sex, BUT there's this scene ummh!!
But that said! It was great ending for Tanya's love story with the two vampire kings, and it almost had me fooled :)
Loved it!!
Ummh ummmh that's all I can write about this book!!!!

It's about time those two royal beefcakes got their act together and gave their female her vampire sandwich;-)

Loved the brotherly bonding over Tanya's gifts & the way they solved their blood drinking dilemma. Gotta admire their romantic dedication.

I know there will be spin-offs, and hopefully, said spin-off will deal with the vampire/human petition as well as the vamp/wolf triangle. I'm just as ready for a little action as Ross and Becky, just sayin'. *hint, hint*

4+ stars.

Tanya finally got her vampire sandwich! *girl sigh*

I got worried that the three wouldn't find a way to make amends and live as a threesome. (No pun intended) As stubborn as Tanya is the Kings find a way to keep them all together. A work in progress. Way to go boys! One big happy vampire story!

Now onto what's going on with Stephany!?!

Awesome Series

This series just kept getting more intense, more exciting, and just more of everything. I loved it; the characters were awesome, and the story plot was great. It was funny to see two alpha vampires, try so hard to please their human mate. Highly recommend this series to anyone who wants strong alpha males and hot sexy scenes.

Holy vampire sandwich!!! What an awesome vampire series. Cannot wait for next spin-off series to come out! This is a wonderfully sinful set that I could not put down. Ordered as soon as it came out and read in one setting. Great conclusion.

Sad to see it end

This episode is much longer than the others. The resolution feels rushed with a very serious betrayal forgiven rather quickly. I am looking forward to the story of Stephany and her wolf and Lance. Wish this one had more.
