Reasons why being the Harbinger is hard, a list by Faith Blackwell. One: waging war against an enemy whose favorite pastime involves war is pretty much impossible when you have no idea what you’re doing. Two: there’s no manual, no easy how-to guide to show you how to save the realm of the Second and all its races. Three: when you’re fighting confusing feelings involving your supposed … supposed arch-nemesis, everything just feels so much harder.
Faith Blackwell is the Harbinger of Humankind. The savior of the Second, fated to fight the Dread King Dracyrus. With her fellowship of men guarding both her heart and her body, it should be simple. But with the Elves suspecting her of murder and no army at her back, she has few options.
The Well inside the Cave of Memories holds the answers to the riddle of why the Harbinger and the Dread King are fated to fight each other until the end of time. The only problem is no one has ever heard of the Cave of Memories, so finding it will be a challenge.
Once Faith has the answers, once she knows the truth, everything will change. When the truth comes to light, her destiny is not what she thought it was. Maybe Dracyrus is not her enemy after all.
Faith isn’t a hero. She won’t do whatever it takes to win, but she’ll do what’s right—even if it means giving up. Surrender has never tasted so sweet.
The Dread King is a steamy reverse harem fantasy with hot scenes involving an irreverent heroine and her group of men.

This book is a very slow paced story. I think the characters are an interesting variety, but that’s about all I found interesting in this book. The story dragged for me and I became bored very quickly.
Okay so this one had even more surprises, especially with what Faith learns about her past with the Dread King. Faith is confused about her destiny. The Dread King is doing things differently. It’s worse than a prophesy, more of a curse. All characters learn something about themselves and start to accept things when it comes to Faith, she included.
After reading the next book, I am confused on why “him coming for her” is a bad thing. Again, you have to read to learn what I’m talking about. This book is for 18+. There’s sex, mention of suicide and if you don’t like one sharing one person with many, you may not like this. It’s an exciting world that Candace has created and I love all the imagery.
***I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review***
This is the third book in the Harbinger Series and pick up right where the last one left off. The first half of the book builds for the second half which is much more interesting.
Faith and her men are so steamy. Man oh man those sex scenes Candace Wondrak created are HOT HOT HOT! I felt the steam coming from my kindle!
OMG that cliff hanger!!! The Dread King finally gets Faith in his hands and Bam she gone. What an ending. I need the next book now so I can know what happens!
Definitely transitions from YA to NA in this third book of the series. I loved learning more about the guys. Starts a little slow, but picks up and leaves us with a cliffhanger.
This story is filled with passion inside and out of the bedroom. I love that the perspective of the story allows for the POV of all characters and the story to be told to its fullest extent. You will get more insight into the background of the characters. This does end on a cliffhanger, but this story has engrossing plotline.
I loved learning more about the guys and their pasts in this book. I feel like the characters were more developed in the first part of the book, then the story really took off in the second half. There’s definitely a lot of passion and just when I was really deep down and dedicated to it, it ended with a cliffhanger. I SO cannot wait to see what happens. I’m loving this series as it’s definitely different than anything I’ve read before.
Really… Darn cliffhanger. This is so far my favorite book of the series. The beginning of the book to me was alright. I actually liked the second half better. Started to really heat up. I’m seriously looking forward to book 4. Sat up all yesterday and last night and finished books 1-3. But that cliffhanger. Was not expecting that. Counting down till book 4.
