Bestselling BBW Vampire Novel. Contains scenes with ménage.Series reading order – 1#Chosen by the Vampire Kings 2#Stolen by the Alpha Wolf 3#Unlikely Mates 4#Awakened by the Vampire Prince 5#Mated to the Vampire Kings 6#Wolf Whisperer (Novella) 7#Wanted by the Elven KingEvery hundred years, tradition dictates that all eligible females in Sweetwater assemble for the choosing ceremony. Two vampire … choosing ceremony. Two vampire kings have separate territories within the surrounding countryside. Both are eager to pick their future brides.
What a waste of her freaking time.
Tanya is among the many women at the choosing ceremony. As far as she’s concerned it’s an outdated, sexist event and if it wasn’t mandatory she so wouldn’t be here. It’s not important that the two males are ridiculously rich and handsome.
Deep down she knows a plain Jane like her will never be picked by one of the kings anyway. Many of the women in the town square are stunningly beautiful and model thin. Most seem enthusiastic about being a queen even if it means being mated to a blood sucker, which suits her just fine.
Imagine her surprise though when King Brant sets his sights firmly on her. Once a vampire king has decided, there’s no going back. But her home is in Sweetwater. Being forced to live amongst the vampire species…big gulp…forced to mate with a vampire…is not what she had in mind for herself. Maybe she can convince him to let her go, to pick again. If not, she’ll have to find a way to escape his – very muscled and rather delicious – clutches.

A rare love-triangle in Paranormal Romance! Loved it!
What’s better then a hot and sexy vampire king….. two hot as f##k vampire kings!!!! My God these vamps are so sexually arousing and the whole good boy, bad boy twist was fabulous!!! Brant and Zane are both dominate males and so different and Tanya is a curvy,strong and not afraid to tell these guys what she thinks! I love her!!! I really loved the storyline and the characters were so interesting as well ,even secondary ones were very intriguing !! When you’ve read as many vampire romances as me it takes a lot to get and hold my attention and Hartnady writes a damn good tale! I haven’t read many books with multiple partners because frankly it’s not my thing,but when you read erotic done well it seems almost natural ! I can’t wait to read more of this series,if the the other books are anything like the first Hot Damn !! The next book in this series is Stolen By The Alpha Wolf
Good reading. It kept my attention.
Good story and ok characters but some of the descriptions of the main character and her bookstore scene was a bit much. The main character’s description is not plausible, the insecurities and demands were a bit over the top and the one scene in the bookstore was a bit much. The rest was enjoyable and loved the bantering between the kings and the few fighting scenes with the other species. Not sure if I will continue this series.
This was a good steamy paranormal story although there were things I liked and disliked about it. I liked the characters and the storyline. There were some unexpected twist to this story that I liked and the lust between the main characters were off the charts. There were a lot of sex scenes! Brant, Zane and Tanya were good characters. Although it seems that the description between Zane and Brant in the beginning swapped. Zane was known for being ruthless and Brant was kind. However, during this story they seemed to switch roles and Zane was kind, caring and compromising while Brant was hot-headed and uncompromising. Brant became the throw fist first and ask questions later vampire. Tanya was all over the place at times. she came off as strong in the beginning but then she started to cry ALL THE TIME. She was hesitant with Brant then not even a full 12 hours later was jumping into bed with Zane. I was happy when they figured everything out. The ending was a cliffhanger but it left me wanting to read Stephany’s story. I’m excited to see what is happening to and with her and the Wolf. There’s also her thing with Lance that needs to be resolved.
I loved this book series, i couldn’t put it down.
5 Stars
Chosen by the Vampire Kings is the first book in The Chosen Series by Charlene Hartnady. This is my first read from Ms. Hartnady- and with this book I’ve discovered that I’m quite late to a really rockin’ party! I have had quite a few of Ms. Hartnady’s books on my Kindle for a long time now, and am really kicking myself that I didn’t dive into them sooner to discover what a brilliant storyteller she is. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this book/series, so much so that I’ve gone on a one-click spree and purchased many more of her books to explore ASAP. My TBR is out of control (lol)…. But now that Ms. Hartnady has made it onto my radar, she will firmly stay on my ‘Must Read’ list.
This is an incredibly good paranormal romance, with wonderful originality, Vampires, Elves, Shifters, a love triangle, Ménage (MFM), suspense, danger, action, adventure, some angst, and a bit of drama. All added together made this an intriguing, HOT, sexy, erotic, and captivating read.
The characters are all really well developed- with their own individual personalities, quirks, and flaws. The chemistry between them was electrifying! But that’s not all that made this such a great read- because the story is really well woven too, with an intensity I never expected. There was a little humour, and plenty of emotion too- which helped to balance the sexy, dramatic, and suspenseful elements. We get to hear from all three main players, and this made the story even more intense and intriguing.
This isn’t just a sexy love triangle, where two vampires compete for their chosen female- there is so much more going on. This is a war of species, with unusual alliances, hidden agendas, power plays, tenuous truces, ruthlessness, violence, danger, choices, being hunted, hope, reconciliation, unity, heartache, health scares, miracles, and so much more.
If you love paranormal romance, sizzling storylines, love triangles/ménages, wonderful characters, dominant alpha male types, feisty stubborn leading ladies, vampires, action, and suspense- all wrapped up in with wonderful emotional elements, then this is definitely a story you won’t want to miss out on!
Superb!
Thank you, Ms. Hartnady!
If you have not read this series I highly recommend it. I loved how she branched out and every book kept me wanting more. Could not wait for the next one to come out. I never got tired of reading these.
I wanted to like this book but I just could not. Characters were not engaging and the entire tone of the book felt flat.
I enjoyed this steamy book. I’ve just star the 2nd book in the series.
Super hot read. Easy to read romance novel and the relationship between the three of them is enjoyable.
This book has interesting characters and a lot of action. It was a different sort of paranormal story. I enjoyed reading it.
Loved the characters and it was a little X-rated but it was excellent. Author knew how to keep me interested…would read it again.
Well developed but predictable plot and interesting characters. There were a few unexpected twists and turns, but an entertaining read.
Fun to read
Loved book so much I purchased all of Charlene Hartnady books after reading it
Be warned, while a decent book, it is not a stand alone book and most of her books end in a cliffhanger.
I enjoyed reading this book.
I thoroughly enjoyed the entire series~~~
This book lead me to read the rest of the series. I am on number 4 in three days. Have fun and enjoy. I sure have!
