All she wanted was to feel again, but when Kisa stumbled into Dolor’s life, she didn’t know it would change her entire existence. Being told that one is destined and damned to destroy the world isn’t what she had in mind.The more she learns, the more questions she has, and getting answers is harder than she thought. And then there’s Dolor. Mysterious, sexy, dark, he pulls her into his gravity, … gravity, challenging her to surrender to her feelings and what her body tells her is right. Dolor feels like home, but Kisa still holds back.
Feelings aside, a prophecy is unfolding before their very eyes, and it’s a race against the clock and fate itself to find a loophole before it’s too late.
With Dolor by her side, and the supernatural world unraveling before her, will Kisa be able change her destiny before it’s too late? Will she be able to protect not only the world from herself, but her heart from Dolor’s magnetic charm?
Or will she lay waste to them all?

I love the way Convalescent seamlessly picks up from Slivered, the storyline unfolds gently while the heat between Kisa and Dolor BURNS!
The character development throughout the story is wonderful. The book deals with loss and trust just beautifully. The dynamics between all of the characters are just perfect. I want them all to have spin offs!
Kandi has written a novel to escape into – the words draw you in so fabulously I felt like it was being played out in my imagination. It’s steamy, it’s paranormal and it’s fantastic.
Book 3? I’ll take that now please!!
I am blown away by this book. I thought the first installment couldn’t get any better and Kandi Vale proved me wrong! The story is woven in a way that draws you in from the first page. The chemistry between Dolor and Kisa will have you needing an ice bath. It’s steamy and romantic and just an absolutely perfect union. Get ready for your new a addiction.
Convalescent is the second book in the Slivered Souls Trilogy, and all I can say is OMG!!!! I couldn’t put it down!!! Kandi brings in more characters, and we learn more about some we have already met. We get more info on Kisa and Dolor, and see how their relationship develops and it is so freaking HOT!!!! Definitely five stars!!!! I can’t wait for the next one!!!!
Wow wow wow kandi you did not let us down with this second book! Starts seamlessly from book 1 (excellent as well people) characters are hot very hot lovin the journey we are going on with Kisa and Dolor (who is now my new book boyfriend) people you need these books in your lives Kisa new world is amazing Kandi added just the right amount of BDSM which is amazing. Love the characters and the sexy scenes Wow can’t wait for book 3 xx You need to read these books Fantastic
I loved this book and finished it in one night evening. Her characters are realistic and read great today and kinky scenes read true
What
A
Book!
It’s a 10book, just like Slivered!
I can not wait to read the next book…
Kisa and Dolar are such an interesting couple. I adore how Kandi has written their love story.
In the follow-up to Slivered, Kandi Vale once again takes your emotions and wrings them out all over the place. Be warned, this book will leave you breathless in places. It’s so good, though, totally worth it.
Wow…I’m at a loss for words! After reading Slivered (Book one of the Slivered Souls Trilogy), I didn’t think it could get any better because that book was amazing! Well, I am here to tell you I was dead wrong! Convalescent is the second book in this series and it blew my mind! You can tell Kandi Vale has a passion for what she does because every emotion that she puts into this book through the characters you can actually feel it! There are so many emotions in this book that I don’t even know where to begin! The storyline is consistent, I haven’t found any plot holes between the first book and this one. Some of the questions I had while reading book one have been answered, but for every question that was answered I gained two more that will hopefully be answered in book three!!! She got me hooked with Slivered and now she is reeling me in with Convalescent! Job well done! I would give this book 10 stars if I could! If you haven’t read Slivered already go do that NOW! Then go read Convalescent! I would recommend this book to everyone, but I will also warn that there is adult theming in this book, this series is definitely not for younger audiences, people who do not like foul language (there is not a lot, but some), or people who don’t prefer to read books that have sex in them. There are also some BDSM scenes in this series.
“That better have been glamour on his part. If you were really eye fucking some stranger in front of me, I think I would have to find my Cane.”
This is just a tid bit of the saucy, Quirky, Sexy story ahead. Convalescent by Kandi Vale will make you weak in the knees, Kisa and Dolor really know how to immerse you in a story! The title in itself is just a perfect reference to how the story progresses but to find out how you’ll have to crack these pages open! I am speechless.
I thought Kandi’s first book Slivered was perfection. Now as she continues to carry us in our journey in the world of Kisa and Dolor it is still nothing but perfection. These books have surpassed my expectations.
Kisa is constantly learning more about herself, her power, and this new world around her. Dolor never goes back on her, he helps her with everything she needs. Especially her need to stay in control.
Oh and did I forget to mention it gets hot and steamy? oh so very much so! you’ll be holding your breath, biting your lip and giving the occasional squeal of delight there is so much character development for many of the characters in book 2!
As well as some new ones! You don’t want to miss seeing how they grow, and finding out who they truly are. In which direction will Kisa go? a submissive pet? a mutual partner? stubborn like a bull? will she fall to the dark? questions will be answered! Though it will leave you wanting so much more!!!
This book made me feel desire, alive, giddy, hate, and wanting. I’ve always been patient but Kandi I need some more .
Overall I’m sure you can tell I absolutely loved it, and I recommend it to every single one of you! So what are you waiting for? Hop on the Kandi train and make your way to Kisa and Dolorville!
This book is seriously one of the most amazingly well written I have had the pleasure of reading, from the start of the story all the way to the last page there is so much in each page that it’s as if each page is its own tardis. The world created within these pages will have you begging for more and it will definitely capture your sense of adventure, from the characters, to the plot, to the unbelievably exquisite story flow and the down right steaminess this book is the definition of the Perfect story. Kandi Vale has undeniably raised the bar and set the new standard with unparalleled success. This is an Author you do not want to miss, and I can honestly see many awards and best sellers in her future.
This book is another stunning performance by Ms. Vale. Kisa and Dolor continue to grow individually as well as a pair. Kisa is discovering who and what she is becoming. Dolor I’m all his hot alpha maleness is finding out there’s much more to his thoughts and emotions than even he thought himself capable of. But what I love the most about this story is that Dolor reads Kisa so well he knows what she wants or needs before she does and he finds a way to give it to her despite herself. It’s beautiful and haunting and so worth the read. Dive in and get lost in this world. You won’t regret it.
I absolutely loved this book! Number 1 was amazing but number 2 knocks it out the park. It picks up wonderfully where it leaves off. The intensity between Kisa and Dolor just burns a fire deep down in your soul. It’s hot and steamy everything to get you all excited and sucked in to the point you are intransed into a whole new world. Your no longer reading it as as if the words play a movie right before your eyes. Stunning Job Kandi Vale! This girl is so excited for January and the last book to come out! 5 stars all the way!
Convalescent picks up flawlessly from the first book Slivered… No wasted pages rehashing everything, it just grabs you and pulls you right back into the unique world Kandi Vale has created. The story and character development are amazing! I can’t wait to see what happens next for Kisa and Dolor…
Kandi Vale has done it again! Convalescent is amazing! You find out more about Kisa, Dolor, and several other characters that keep the pages turning until you reach the end and want to scream! I need to know what happens next now! I read it in one sitting and had to read it again the next day! Please, Kandi, hurry with the next book!
Kisa and Dolor are such a unique couple, I love how they need each other and yet Kisa refuses to submit completely lol..she so fiercely independent I love that about her. Sexy, addicting, hanging on every word.. basically a masterpiece.
Dolor and Kisa’s story continues to grow as more secrets and pasts come to light. The characters and worlds Kandi creates makes you feel as if you are a part of them, you can picture everything she has described. Wonderful secondary characters that pull you deeper into the story, and really make you invested. I had a hard time putting this story down so I could be an adult for the day, I kept saying just one more page.
I can’t wait for the final book to see how everything plays out!
Words can’t express how much this series has become my life; when I first read Slivered, I was hooked after the first few chapters, wanting more and more between Kisa and Dolor, anxiously hoping that their connection would transform into something more. Kandi did not disappoint! After reading Convalescent, I realized that nothing will ever compare to this book or series, I am obsessed with Kisa and Dolor’s story. We learn more about Dolor’s background, we learn more about the side characters (Which, I hope we see more from in another series -wink, wink-), and the connection between Dolor and Kisa only leaves you craving more (Each chapter, leaves, you on the edge of your seat–wanting more and more and wishing you were in the story). After finishing this book, a part of me was, deflated that I finished it quickly, and left me wanting more and not having anything to top it. I love many stories and authors, but only select few can get me obsessed, and Kandi did that with Convalescent. I don’t even know how the last book will go, but I know that I will be locked away for a few days devouring it. The way the book ended, I am eager to see what takes place, and hoping Dolor can find a HEA because he deserves it, as does Kisa. Kandi, you have destroyed my life in a good way. I can’t think of anything else but this book now and I’m not even able to find something that can compare. Please write more amazing stories! I just want to say if, I could give you ten stars, I could give you ten stars because give does not seem like enough.
When I read Kandi Vale’s first installment of the Slivered Souls Trilogy, Slivered, I was hooked almost immediately. I was thrilled when Convalescent was finally released because it meant I was able to finally get my Kisa and Dolor fix.
Hot yet angsty is the best way I can describe this series. Ms. Vale continues to do a great job depicting the softer side of Dolor while allowing Kisa to come into her own. Watching these two discover not other each other, but themselves, as well has made this series really stand out.
Convalescent is an incredible addition to the Slivered Trilogy! The chemistry between Kisa and Dolor conflicting with the fact the world could be torn apart at the seams at any moment keeps your turning the pages, biting your nails, and holding your breath! You may need a couple shower breaks while reading this book. I cannot wait for the third book to be released. And if you were waiting to see how this book turned out before reading Slivered, go go go! You really need this dark, paranormal romance in your life!
This book is A. Maze. Ing! I thought Slivered, the first book in the Slivered Souls Trilogy was good-and it was-but Convalescent was even better. We learn more about Dolor and watch Kisa grow, trust, love and come to accept her growing powers. We get to meet a very interesting new character, and see more of the characters introduced in Slivered. The hot factor is turned up to panty-melting drool worthy proportions and goes way beyond steamy. If you haven’t read Slivered, get it now. You will be hooked, I guarantee it. Kandi Vale is so amazingly talented. Her world building and storyline is so original. Her ability to string well written sentences together, magical. The editing is flawless and it was so easy to get sucked into this story so that the words disappeared and I was there, in Kisa and Dolor’s world. I could see it, hear it and feel it. Any author that can pull me in like that, I’m a fan for life.
