Queen Takes More by Joely Sue Burkhart

5.0

A collection of Short Stories, some of the previously in Anthologies and two completely new ones that are just A-MA-ZING.

Queen Takes It Out On Me
Daire was behaving like a brat and I didn't even realize it until it was pointed out by Shara. Care to guess why a submissive behaves like a brat? *wiggle eyebrows suggestively* Exactly.
I absolutely LOVED how Shara taught Daire a lesson in this short story. It was bloody but when Shara doesn't end cover in her Bloods blood, right? It was beautifully written as always and the inclusion of her Kraken did this even more so.

Queen Takes Alpha
I've read this short story when it was released as part of an Anthology of short stories with other authors before. One of the Between the Sheets if I'm not mistaken but it was great to re-read this again. There is no way I would pass on a scene when Shara gives Rik free reign.

Queen Takes Twins
Another one that was part of a Between the Sheets Anthology, the Halloween edition if I'm not wrong but this one was also beautifully done. I love submissive men stories and the way they give their all to their beloved, there's something about their vulnerability that just melts me.

Queen Takes A Late Christmas
This one was my favorite from all the short stories before Queen Takes More was released. Xochitl visiting un-announced and the Blood's reaction was just adorably cute. The aftermath was also adorable in a completely different way and in a completely different level of hotness.

Queen Takes Tentacles
My favorite short story to date. Hands down. There's no other. I LOVED it. I don't even know what to say except repeating myself like a broken record: I loved it, I loved it, I loved it.
Add to my love the fact that his mother was there. Don't even get me started with that woman/creature because I could slap here twenty times in a minute. I can also understand that at the time he was born things were so different that she had to do what most did. I still can't forgive her.
And finally... what the is the Screaming Madness???

I read this book / collection on KU
