Wicked Games
Tasked with finding the remaining treasure hordes, Alyx Mayhem and her guards, Scur Nordscov and Khalid Ingvar, have their hands full. As she is uniquely suited for the treasure quests, she plans to do it her way with the men that love her by her side.
One of two newly minted princesses in the Nightmare Courts, Alyx is determined to ensure her court is indispensible to the others, by filling the hole of a warrior house. With one horde down, and several more to be found, they think they have it in the bag…
Except they didn’t count on a competitor, and one who is set on ruining the Nightmare Courts.
And when something monumental is unearthed, Alyx and her men will have a decision, one that will take them on a grand adventure…or doom them all.

July 11, 2020I love a good quest
I've been excited to get to know Alyx. Was not disappointed! I love her strength and her unapologetic look at life. She owns who she is and who she loves and wants.
I think my favorite theme throughout these books are strong women, and that strength shows differently for each, owning who they are, what they believe in, and their sexuality. It's refreshing in a world that doesn't always encourage these ideals.

Seriously can these books get any more detailed. Loved this first with Alyx and her guard. Can't wait to see what they find next. I really love the detail the authors are providing us with in the growth and the "un-hiding" of Faerie. And this cover? DAMN! Stunning. If you need new book boyfriends that are outside the norm, the Court series is where you should go!

Wicked Games is the start to the tale of newly minted tom-boy princess Alyx Mayhem and her guards, Scur Nordscov and Khalid Ingvar. They are tasked with a mission and determined to succeed. But Alyx’s court isn’t complete and there are factions rising against her.
This is a sexy fast paced in your face adventure that will leave you breathless and wanting the next book asap.

I loved this book and cannot wait for the next book to come out. This look into Alyx's world will keep you laughing and wondering what else is going to happen to them. At least a portion of the issue is taken care of but a whole nother one takes it's place. There is a great big mystery to get through and the pieces will hopefully come together starting in the next book.

A Grand New Adventure
Alyx is a fae princess who is starting to establish a new court, however she also is a warrior and has been keen to take up the challenge to search the world, both human and faerie to find lost hoards of treasure. The treasure isn’t always gold and jewels, but also information, which is sometimes much more valuable. One such hoard leads Alyx and her men, Khalid and Scur to visit the faeblin prince, Abaxley. Abaxley is half fae and half goblin and can read the scroll they found. Abaxley is supposed to be part of Alyx’s court, but he’s been resisting.
This scroll is the start of a new quest for Alyx and as usual she jumps in feet first all gung ho.
I’ve always like the character of Alyx. She’s fierce and fun with a lust for life. When she was battling her brother Quinn, a member of the Queen’s court, it started to make me like her. This book also helps us to understand her men better than before, which is what usually happens with spin off series. I would say, as always with these books, you probably won’t understand a lot of what is unsaid in this book unless you have read from the beginning of the various series, ie Slumber (The Sleeping Court Series).
I will warn you that there is a doozy of a cliffhanger, and I’m just glad the next book is already out or I would be cursing the authors!

I absolutely adore every Princess in Faerie, but I’ve loved Alyx since she was introduced to us. Alyx is my absolute girl crush. She’s a badass and wicked smart. How could you not love her? Now that she and her Guard are off on their quest the excitement and extremely sexy times are just beginning. You definitely want to read this series immediately. Start with The Sleeping Court and I promise you will not be disappointed.

Loved it
Another great book of the Arcane Court. I love Alyx and her men. Everything is finally fighting itself, and new things are being discovered.
