Why oh why does this series have to be over?? Fiona has been a succubus her entire life but now she has been turned into a vampire as well though she has her doubts about this. Instead she tries to fight her new status and the warden is happy to entertain her when she denies her needs. What she doesn’t know is that he has a hidden motive for this attention which she discovers when she is rescued by her mates that have to go through an entire process to free her of him. A fascinating read full of steam that will have you turning page after page as the story unfolds. Since this one will continue I cannot wait to see what happens in the next book. I totally love it so I give it 5/5 stars.
The story was an extremely interesting one. It has a lot of sex scenes but they are beautifully written. It does have a lot of drama and we learn a lot about our characters. They have fantastic personalities that are felt throughout the story. I absolutely love Alfred. Even if we do not see much of him in this story, he is still a magnificent character. I can’t wait to see what is going to happen next.
Woah – this story starts of hot, and just gets hotter. Fiona is a succubus who is in denial that she was turned into a vampire. Unfortunately for her, no sooner is she turned and she is thrown into Nightmare Penitentiary, because mixed bloods aren’t supposed to exist. She escapes with the unasked for help of 3 hot guys – Maddox, Fin, and Rogue. I love that Fi is such a strong character. She is fierce and has such sass! I’m really curious about Elias and can’t wait to see what happens next!
I found this reverse harem story a bit darker then some of the stories I have read lately. That said it definitely kept my attention with it lead characters and the unusual storyline. Fiona is a rather complex character. She is a succubus also turned into a vampire by mistake which sets up the storyline. It seems being a vampire hybrid is a crime that will get you put in Nightmare penitentiary, a paranormal prison. This is where the story begins and as the story unfolds we meet her hybrid rescuers who try to convince her that she is their destined mate. There is a fair amount of sexy encounters as well as conflict along the way. Especially when Fiona is in denial of her hybrid status. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next installment.
Ooh! I love this story. Fiona is perfect. She is a fighter through and through. She has so much to understand about who she is now. Fin is so fun and Maddox is a typical dragon. This book is super hot!! You will not be able to put it down. I can’t wait for more.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This was exciting to get into that is a great start to a new trilogy. This is also a new one do not think I have read a prison one before. Read some getting in or out but not featuring one. Fiona will certainly capture your attention with us adoring her. Her feedings will be steamy so watch those fingers. Her humor matches mine so I could totally relate. She will also have those who want to rescue her. Author is right they are snarky.
Fiona is a succubus who had the bad judgement to engage with a hungry vampire. When he thinks he’s killed her he tries to save her and creates the impossible. A Hybrid, An Abomination.
The Vampire Prince sends her to Nightmare Penitentiary, with the intent of her never getting out.
Fiona isn’t drinking the blood they try to feed her, she only feeds when the Warden visits her and she feeds both her succubus nature and the vampire although the later under protest.
Fiona hasn’t asked to be rescued, she has more or less resigned herself to the fact she isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Then a ‘guard’ shows up and expects her to just go with him.
Things obviously weren’t going as planned and between her bleeding wrists and no answers, Fiona’s temper was rising.
Maddox wasn’t the most diplomatic and with some help from Fin they calm her. It isn’t until the next night that they actually get her away with Rogue’s help. Well Rogue takes off with her so that counts, right?
I love this book, these guys don’t have a clue other than knowing they have to help her transition properly. Fiona has to accept both sides of her nature to survive. It’s the forth in this group, Alfred, who is the turning point in more ways than one.
Plenty of twist and turns, ups and downs, some giggles and plenty of Kindle Melting Sizzle, as we meet and get to know these guys who believe Fiona is theirs.
I really can’t wait for the next book!
Trying to explain a book that starts out in a place called ‘Nightmare Penitentiary’ can be daunting… Let me say that Ms. Long has created a phenomenal world where paranormal activity is a very sexy, very smexy, and hawt experience! It is definitely a book one and for me: it was the background to all that had happened, when the story opened; the story that happens in this book; and all that is about to happen.
At the opening, to say that Fiona is having a bad few days would be an understatement. She is, or was, a succubus who was just turned by a vampire (who abandoned her), imprisoned by a demon warden (who is trying to exert control over her), my favorite part – her best outfit and shoes were destroyed, and she is NOT happy. Okay, another understatement! She is not a very cooperative inmate and I love that she is super snarky.
Enter two…let’s call them ‘saviors’! When trying to break her out/rescue her, she fights them every step of the way. It’s a push/pull/I’m-gonna-smack-you event that will get your heart pumping. There’s Rogue and Fin, who infiltrate the prison. Then comes Maddox, who she meets later in the story. And Alfred…the fourth member of this reverse harem, action, rescue, love story!
So much happens in this first book that I don’t want to give any spoilers. Know that this is a very smexy, fast-paced, deeply snarky, paranormal story. And it hooked me so fast that I want to read more. Can’t wait for the next book!
I enjoyed the blurb with this and was intrigued to find out how the succubus story line would fit it. Fiona is a fun character with her own snark and banter and made the story funny. However, I would have wanted to see more in depth of the guys and the relationship between them, the prison, and Fiona. The story is hot but most of it had to do with that and less of the story and the prison.
This is probably the first of the prison books that I’ve read that has started with a bang. I like that the main character is so tough and willful. She can really hold her own. But, the guys are so great. Controlling yet trying so hard to be gentlemen even though she fights it the whole way. I’m really intrigued to see these relationships grow. Such a great bunch of characters.
Another fun story in the paranormal prison series. This is about a succubus and her men, though she is much more then that. I liked that the main character was more then just a succubus and I liked that her men were both drawn to her because of who is is and in spite of her abilities. The steamy scenes were, well steamy. There was plenty of snark and humor to balance out the prison aspects; and while this was partly in the prison most of the story was outside that dynamic. I enjoyed this story but would have also liked a bit more in the prison and the struggles that brings. 3 solid stars.
Succubus Chained is the first in a smoking hot reverse harem trilogy. Vampire hybrids don’t exist or do they? This story tells the tale of a succubus named Fiona who is having trouble dealing with that fact that she was drained and fed blood by a vampire. She deals by snark, wit and building her dream home in her head. This book is steamy, funny and finished too fast. Bring on the next installment.
She loved being a succubus, but now she’s so much more.
She didnt ask to become what she is, but it happened and then she landed with a bump inside a cell.
Now freedom is on the tip of her tounge, but she trust the stranger with her life?
Another installment in the paranormal prison series, set inside nightmare penitentiary.
To be completely honest with you I was a little disappointed with this. It felt like the prison was an after thought for once again the main story is outside the prison walls.
The characters didnt particularly hold my attention. They lacked depth and because there were quite a few, they had to share the spotlight.
I wanted more time with each of the men, to see their true personality and I didnt get that.
The sex scenes were great, nice and steamy just the way I like them, but as for the rest, it just didnt hit the mark.
I walked away from this book not really feeling anything and that saddened me as this series was one I had been eagerly awaiting.
Succubus Chained (Paranormal Prison) Kindle Edition
by Heather Long
Thanks to Heather Long for the complimentary eARC. I am choosing to leave a fair and honest review.
Wow! There is a lot of steam in the fast paced, Reverse Harem addition to the Paranormal Prison series. So much heat and steam that your kindle will be begging for mercy because it is melting.
Fiona is a Succubus … and something else. She was drained by a vampire during a mutual feeding session. When he accidentally drained her, he gave her his blood, thinking it would save her. It did the exact opposite. She wakes up as a hybrid – part vampire and part succubus. This act of simply being lands her in a windowless cell in the Nightmare Prison. Her only crime was that she was not supposed to exist. Enter Maddox and his ‘brothers’ to rescue her.
The first few pages is a hot, smexy sex scene involving Fi and the Warden. And it only gets hotter from there as she works to escape and to feed both of her dual sides.
Beyond the nearly continuous sex scenes, the best part of the book is the narration by Fiona. She is snarky, sarcastic and under it all, tormented. Her voice is funny in a way that had me smirking through most of the story, which was broken up by laughs, snickers and guffaws. While the men’s POV appears sprinkled through out, they lack the sly, stand-up-like snark of Fiona’s voice
Most of the book is spent in various places having sex and swapping blood. Which is unfortunate, there is so much that could have been done in terms of plot and backstory. We don’t find out exactly what all the guys were to the very final chapter. I would have like some information and fill in that wasn’t sex, architecture or clothing.
All in all, I enjoyed the book, even if it was, in my opinion, much shallower than it needed to be.
4 stars out of 4
