Book 4 of the Crystal KingdomRunning is Chelsea Golby’s escape. Literally. She runs to get away from the pain of being rejected after asking the love of her life to marry her. Instead of wallowing in self-pity, or a pint of Ben and Jerry’s, she heads to the Crystal Kingdom to hang out with her sister Avery, the new Elf Queen. With Avery busy being queen, she decides to go on a run to see the … see the magical lands. Maybe what her grandmom said was true and Chelsea has magic in her blood too.
Zaos Firefoot,the right hand man to King Gorwin, knows his people are fading out. It’s too bad he can’t tell the dumb-ass leader exactly what he thinks about how he rules the kingdom. As much as he hates it, Zaos does what he’s told. Until the day he’s sent out to question and kill a light elf. When Zaos finds out that beautiful light elf is his mate, all bets are off with the killing thing. He’ll protect Chelsea with his last breath if necessary. Afterall, she’s his.
The surprises don’t stop at finding a mate. Someone forgot to tell Zaos he’s the son of a dragon and a Dark Elf who are mortal enemies. The drama explodes until the realm is at risk and everyone’s life is at stake. But Chelsea isn’t one to sit idle and watch. She’s about to learn that saving a world can get a girl killed. And it’ll destroy Zaos to know there’s nothing he can do to stop her.

This is book four in The Crystal Kingdom series. It features human, Chelsea and dark fae, Zaos. I’ve enjoyed the other books in the series, but I think this one might be my favorite (even with a couple of confusing parts).

This is Book 4 in the Crystal Kingdom series. Chelsea’s sister is a Queen in another world. Her grandmother sends her and 3 cousins for a visit. Things are way different there than they are on earth! She is even supposed to have a little magic of her own but she has no idea what it could be. She’s gone for a run that takes her a long way from the village. There she gets in trouble trying to take a lost little boy home. Trouble isn’t too bad though because she does meet Zaos there. This is such a good book! I couldn’t put it down until I had read it all so I could see what happened. It’s definitely an adventure to experience. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book that I received from Booksprout
This book is the forth in the Crystal Kingdom series. I found it very creative in joining the the books together and joining the use of the queens magic. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this series and will welcome more in the future.
Chelsea and Zaos chemistry together is blazingly hot. Great adventure in this book. I couldn’t put this book down .

Loved it! I love to read books from Milly Taiden. This is the fourth book in The Crystal Kingdom series. This is Chelsea and Zaos’s story. Chelsea is just coming out of a breakup. So she decides that she needs to visit her sister in the fae world. Zaos is a dark elf who isn’t what he appears to be. This story has it all from passion, and heat, a bit of scary and magic!! I loved Zaos and Chelsea. I could not put it down at all. You NEED to grab this story. It’s an amazing journey in this series. Keep up the amazing work Milly! I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
Quite amusing and enjoyable.
Found the heroine Chelsea believable and likeable. Zaos was just yummy.
These two being mates really will bring balance between the light and dark elves and I loved how Chelsea sorted out the dark lands.
This was better than I expected. I read book one and didn’t find it to be what I wanted to read. Having read book 4, I may just have to go back and read the intervening two books.
This is my honest review of this book kindly offered to me.
Fire King is the fourth book in the Crystal Kingdom series. In this book we’re introduced to Avery’s step sister Chelsea & dark elf Zaos & follow them on their path to happily ever after.
Chelsea is a runner. She runs to clear her head & get away the pain of rejection. When her grandmother offers her a chance to go see her sister, she jumps at the chance. When she decides to go for a short run, she ends up much farther from her sister, way too close to danger & smack into an elf that says she’s his mate.
Zaos is second in command to the dark elf king, even though he privately doesn’t agree with everything his king does. Zaos still does what his king demands until he realizes one of those demands is to kill the woman that is his mate. He’ll do anything to protect her, but will she reject him when he tells her the truth about himself?
In this book we meet some new humans that travel to the Crystal Kingdom including Chelsea, the female lead in this story. She’s strong & level headed but seems a little off balance somehow. Zaos, the male lead, is a typical warrior type hero that comes with a bit of an inferiority complex. The supporting cast is well crafted including including an adorable little hero-to-be & the deliciously evil Tel. The story line was interesting – a bit slow to start but picking up speed & excitement as it goes. It also includes three more women that just might be appearing in future additions to the series. All in all, this is a great read for a quiet evening.

As expected with Milly Taiden another great book. This was a fun and exciting addition to The Crystal Kingdom series. This is just another great reason why this author is one of my instant purchases any time she has a new book.

I liked the Fire King. Chelsea is visiting her sister, the Queen of the Light Elves when she suddenly finds herself captive of the Dark Elves. Luckily her mate, Zaos finds her quickly.
Some danger to Chelsea from another dark elf who is jealous of Zaos but she is saved and she also manages to help bring the dark elves and dragons together.

He may not agree with his orders but he follows them. Chelsea runs because thats what she does. This Fate steps in and oh boy what a doozy of an adventure. The characters in this book are off the charts; whether the good or evil. Milly Taiden has outdone herself once again.

Just when i thought the final story was told this author came back with an incredible story that was unexpected and definitely left you wanting even more.. Zaos is definitely my favorite King because of his insecurities and vulnerability.. Chelsea was kick ass and is definitely a perfect addition to the queens.. Looking forward to see what this author has planned next..
Always anticipated new release from the talented Milly Taiden, she brings us Fire King book 4 of The Crystal Kingdom Series. Milly being true to her style gives us sass personified in Chelsea a no-nonsense beauty that will need all her talent as a mediator to pull off a truce between some long angry folks. Zaos will have your pages overheating, ah but he brings mystery to the mix and when chem sparks between Chelsea and Zaos stand by to stand by. It’s the easy good vs bad but rides the rails of a true fairy tale. Dragons and Dark Elves oh my. magic and fairy realm oh my. A mix of detail, passion, and heat, a bit of scary and magic!! If you’re a believer in book magic grab Milly’s latest release and enjoy. Milly Taiden
Book 4 of Crystal Kingdom by Milly Taiden
I will admit I wasn’t expecting more in this series and I wasn’t sure how MT was going to keep me interested but I should have trust one of my favourite authors to always satisfied me.
This book is about Avery half sister and her cousins visiting and getting into trouble basically.
Chelsea is Avery half sister (even though I don’t like that description) and she visits her but while on a run she travels further than planned and ends up in dark elf part which is slowly dying and collapsing. While there she finds a child and while trying to figure out what to do with him dark elf’s find her and think she’s kidnapping him so they kidnap her. That when Zaos find out she’s his mate and everything gets massively complicated between them. I love that Zaos doesn’t just mate her straight away he courts her and tries to get to know her before officially mate but he does mess up along way.
Absolutely loved this little gem which I wasn’t expecting and now so looking forward to finding out what happens to cousins.
MT is always a winner for me. If you love YA MT has started writing the Crystal Kingdom as a YA Fae Queen is first book definitely check it out.
This is part 4 of a series and while it can be read alone it is so much better as the group of books. I have to say this book surprised me in all the good ways. Chelsea leaves earth to go visit her sister and her new mate one of the Elf Kings. While there she goes for a run and fate steps in. I knew I would like her tale and I did so much. I love how the author gives us something to think about as far as our world goes. This is a must read and i am looking forward to reading more of this series. I read/review as a thank you to the author for their gift of words.
After finding out that her boyfriend do not see the same future with her as she sees with him. She is happy to spend weekend with her half sister, The Elf Queen. While there, her love of running will give her more than she anticipated for, a mate. Trying to help him, they find out more about his past and the person he is.
Awesome story.
Chelsea was happy for her half-sister. Really she was. She was now a Queen for fracks sake! In another Realm! That’s what she was getting used to! But on a visit to Avery and Tylen, Chelsea manages to get caught up in a turf war between Dragons and Dark Elves! She never thought her work as a Divorce Mediator would be used this way!
Zaos has all sorts of delicious secrets. He comes from an actual love union and…well he has more than a few talents. And just why does he sound more “Earthling” than the rest of his kind???
I loved Zaos and Chelsea together. Chelsea is the calm centre to the whirlwind that is Zaos. But he too is a calm voice among his kind. But it just goes to show that racism and bigotry isn’t just Earthbound sadly. Great little read!
