Wow again. Utterly fabulous story. Sophie, the vampire princess. Dylan, her human on/off again boyfriend. Maxim, the vampire. Both men are in love with Sophie and she really, really cares for them both. But what terrible secret is being kept as Sophie and the others prepare for war? If I could give more than five stars I would.
Sophie was shopping for her prom dress, but the pink ones Bernard was showing her just didn’t fit with her mood. As a half-human, half-vampire, she figured it was okay to fall into the stereotype and wear black; as long as she accessorized with sparklies, it would work. But with all the weight she had lost, she wasn’t sure she looked good in it. She stepped out of the dressing room and Bernard held up a silk dress of pale lavender embroidered with pale gold thread. It was perfect! But when she heard some girls laughing as they passed nearby, she had to finish her purchase and hurry out. Her teeth had extended and her terrible blood thirst was increasing in both frequency and violence.
This book has everything I like in this type of story. The story line was good, fast-paced, the characters were wonderful. The humor and close friendships really pulled it together! And the suspense at seeing how Sophie was faced with saving her kingdom kept the reader fully invested in the story. There is more to Sophie than we know, and her powers are constantly increasing. This is a time of discovery for her, and surprises for the reader. This series is well worth getting involved in! I am sure you will enjoy it as much as I did!
I really enjoyed this book the most so far! Sophie is now broken up with Dylan and her best friend has deserted her. So she’s spending more and more time training as she learns the endless list of new abilities she has. When her bloodlust becomes insatiable drastic action must be taken. Maxim can no longer quench her thirst! With Bernard and Caleb more worried than ever they do more research and discover her mother wasn’t what she seemed and this unlocks the key to helping Sophie. I really enjoyed the new parts to the book that I can’t reveal as it would be considered spoilers but this book is definitely worth reading. I’m anxious to read the final book in this page turning trilogy!

Book 2 of this series and it’s full of plenty of twists, turns, and surprises. Even after reading book 1 and 2 I can’t figure who I want her to end up with. I will once again be waiting for the next book to find out how things turn out!

Fresh twist on the brooding and dark vampire genre
Amazing! Book 2 keeps the story flowing! It’s well written and the characters are well defined! I’m excited to see what book 3 brings!
Without giving away any spoilers, I can only say that it does not make any sense to banish someone who is loved, required, and a potential threat simply because not all the truth came out at once. Aside from that humdinger of a cliffhanger, this book was just as great as the first, if not better, and now I’m already suffering from having to wait for the 3rd installment.

Book Review
Title: Royally Cursed (Vampire Princess #2)
Author: Cameron Drake
Genre: YA/Paranormal/Romance
Rating: ****
Review: It has been a while since I read Vampire Princess, but I remember enjoying it even if I didn’t totally love it, so I have decided to continue on with the series. The synopsis of Royally Cursed does sound more interesting that the first book and I am eager to see how the series ends although there is another book scheduled to come out soon. We know that Sophie/Sasha had to break up with Dylan in the previous novel because his family are Fae, but he still loves her, and we also see that she is having serious trouble controlling her thirst as she is now drinking more blood than the other 3 vampires living with her combined. However, keeping the appearance of being human means she has finals and prom to deal with on top of everything else.
We see a strange love triangle developing between Dylan, Maxim and Sasha, which was interesting and while I am not overly fond on love triangles, I do enjoy them if they are done right. Prom turns out to be a slight disaster as Sophie’s hunger returns with a vengeance and she is almost 100% sure Dylan saw what she is but her complicated feelings for Maxim are mixed up in this especially since she drinks from him which can be seen as quite intimate. It turns out that drinking from another vampire forms a bond between them that is typical reserved for lovers and while Maxim knew this Sasha did not, furious with Maxim she throws him out even knowing that his blood is the only blood that will truly satisfy her. Eventually he does return and while Sasha doesn’t like drinking from him because of how he feels for her and she doesn’t want to return those feelings we can see something developing between them. This relationship is made more complex when Sasha has a vision of other Vampire Royals and one of them seems so familiar to her and I have a feeling that it is Maxim and he may be using Sasha to complete his own agenda.
As Sasha’s hunger continues to grow with no signs of slowing down or stopping her powers continue to grow as well especially since she starting drinking from Maxim. Together with Maxim, Bernard and Caleb she manages to create a light so strong it almost kills Maxim and a darkness that protects him. Her guardians comment that they had only seen these powers in Fae who are descendants of Angels, but somehow Sasha has similar abilities and it is also said that no vampire could stand against Sasha’s light unless they are like her. As Sasha is chained up to protect the humans and other vampires, her hunger is getting worse and even Maxim’s blood doesn’t seem to stop it when Bernard and Caleb decide to bring Dylan into the situation. This enrages Sasha but Dylan is very understanding and even feeds Sasha which manages to satisfy the thirst she has been feeling for days. Now, the question is how is this going to affect her relationship with Maxim and how is Dylan going to cope when he learns of the bond between Maxim and Sasha.
With Sasha’s thirst dealt with she can get on with training and being a normal teenage. However, her powers are getting stronger which is seen when she turns Bernard into a daywalker or maybe even made him human again which is unclear, but it seems that Sasha is going to be the key in winning the war to come. Despite this, not all is well as the rivalry between Maxim and Dylan is getting worse, but Sasha is gathering allies in other vampires and certain Fae like Karen and Dylan. The ending of Royally Cursed leaves a great cliffhanger for Rogue Prince as Sasha learns of another heir to her throne and his true motivations for being close to her and I have a feeling everything is going to blow up in the supposed finale to this series.
Royally Cursed by Cameron Drake is book 2 in the Vampire Princess series.

Ah, yes! Teen angst/drama at it’s finest. The classic ‘love-triangle’ and part (a large part) of the reason I keep coming back to this kind of story. I enjoyed the first book, but I couldn’t wait to start this one, and wasn’t disappointed! As a second book, this one had my expectations high, but not only did it meet them, it left me craving more of this story! I loved the characters in the first one, but I’m excited to see even more of them, and more emotion and personality in this one as they are each forced to make choices and take sides.

Big improvement on the first in this series . You can’t help feeling sorry for Sophie , her best friend & her boyfriend are now off limits , Fae & Vampires just don’t mix . her cravin constant . She might be a princess but life a the moment sucks , you actually feel sorry for Sophie when she goes to pick a prom dress Her craving for blood is constant , her usual blood just doesn’t satisfy her any more but then neither does Vampire blood . Boys , prom , training ,blood & her powers take over Sophie’s life until she is forced to make a decision that could cost her dearly, faster paced book than the first that you will find very hard to put down until its finished .
Book 2 is even better!
Sofie’s story continues with several twists and turns, lots of emotion, drama and suspense. A wonderful combination. I look forward to reading the next book. Enjoy!

I just loved this book. It was so well-written that it captured my mind and I was dragged along for the ride. Once I started reading I couldn’t put it down until I read the last page.

In this second book of discovery, the author further develops the characters and their relationships in this tale of discovery. The book is a sweet read with just enough spice to fall in love with it.

Love!!! Love!!! Love!!!! Can’t wait for the next book!!!
