***An Amazon Top 10 Bestseller***


Welcome to the conclusion of the tantalizing romance of Erik and Livia.


The Songbird:

Captive. Challenger. Queen.

Enemies took her from the man who holds her heart. They might see her as weak, as a pawn in wicked games, but they’re no match for the first Ever Queen.

Let them think they’ve won. Her heart belongs to a beautiful monster, and she will never stop fighting until she’s back in his arms.


The Serpent:

Captor. Villain. King.

His enemies stole the woman who claimed his soul. They betrayed him out of greed and desire for the crown, but they won't die for that betrayal. No.

They’ll die for touching her.

His heart belongs to a stunning little bird. He will never stop searching for her light across the skies. Not until the blood of his enemies spills at her feet, and his queen wears their bones around her neck.


Welcome back to the world of the Ever Kingdom where pirates collide with Vikings in passionate romance, brutal battles, and an unforgettable dark fantasy world. This book concludes the love story between Erik and Livia, but new, standalone romances with other favorite characters will continue to build the world. Readers are encouraged to check the TW inside the book for their reading comfort.

What an amazing journey. I enjoyed every minute of this book. This starts right where book one ended. Livia is such a badass. I loved seeing her determination and fight in this book. I loved seeing her use everything she learned from her parents in this book too. Also getting to see more of Valen was amazing. He is from the Broken Kingdoms series (books 1-3). Seeing his relationship with his daughter was great. Gosh, Erik was just chefs kiss through this whole book. Who wouldn't want the Villain to be feral over you? I also loved seeing his walls fall just a bit for Liv. They are the bookish couple I will always think about. I loved the found family too. Also the banter between all the characters in this book was so good. This book was also an emotional rollercoaster too. It was 100% worth it. I still can't believe this story is over. If you want a story full of Vikings and magic I can't recommend this series enough.The Ever Queen is book two in the Ever Seas Duet by LJ Andrews. This book is recommended for 18+.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful sequel
Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2024

This book starts off right after where book 1 ended with Erik's betrayer revealed and Livia having been captured. Now its a race to save her and bring peace to the Ever.

What I found most intriguing about this duology was the pirate/sailor fae aspect. In book 1, we discover much about the Ever and the sea fae who oddly enough live primarily on land, but their magical abilities revolve around the sea and water. While book 1 focused on the development of the relationship and heartbond between Erik and Livia in true enemies-to-lovers fashion, book 2 explores a found family aspect with elaborations on the magic, the addition of elven, and battles. Friends and family on both sides come together to build lasting relationships and strengthen the characters. While Erik's character development revolved around his relationship with Livia, Livia flourished from the shy person that she still was at the end of book 1 to blossom into a formidable opponent for the Ever's enemies.

With action nearly in each chapter and a flow of short punchy sentences that kept the pages turning, this duology was a wonderful read. I did feel that there was a lull after Livia gets rescued and that the ending was a little long, but it was absolutely enjoyable!

Absolutely captivating! I was hooked from the start as the story picked up right where the last book left off.

Full of action, danger, and high stakes this book was hard to put down after I started.

Songbird and her serpent go through hell both individually and together. Their story is beautiful, breathtaking, vicious, and unforgettable. I loved their growth and relationship!

I really enjoyed the side characters as well and hope we’ll be able to see more of them. I can’t wait to see if they will get their own stories!

There’s so much I want to say but don’t know how to put it into words. All I can say is that I really enjoyed this series so far and definitely recommend!

Some more reasons to check this out:

- morally grey characters
- pirates
- unique magic and world
- fierce love
- strong characters
- ‘fight for you’
- family bonds
- vicious characters
- and so much more!

5.0 out of 5 stars Epic conclusion to the Ever series
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2024

I loved the Ever King and this was a worthwhile sequel and conclusion to the series. I love that the author kept it a duology (yes, there is a third book but based on a side character, not these main characters) where the end is beautiful, emotion, and perfect. Nothing makes me happier than not waiting for years to get to a happy conclusion to a fantasy series.

I would recommend this series to anyone who loves pirates, vikings, fae, found family, and a morally gray hero burning down the world to find his love and save her. This book has it all and I am a committed fan of LJ Andrews.

This book moves along. Good story, butAs I feel with most series, book 1 could’ve included a shortened version of this book and concluded. No need for a second book.

Ugh, Jonas is not who I want to learn more about in book 3. I don’t feel he’s mentioned enough in book 1 and 2 to warrant this. Tate and Mira were played up more in this book than him. I want to know about them.

En esta ocasión el libro me vino bastante bien, cosa que es rara viniendo de los envíos de Amazon. La única pega que tengo realmente con este libro es el tema de la edición, me explico, portada e ilustraciones de 10, aquí me han puesto las ilustraciones del mismo estilo y además son del estilo que me gustó en el primer libro, creo que son muy bonitas. Mi único problema es el lomo, me molesta de sobremanera que el tamaño de las letras sea diferente, yo lo único que pido en sagas o series de libro es que los lomos cuadren y tengan el mismo estilo al poner uno al lado del otro.

This is book #2 in "The Ever Seas" series and it was the most beautiful conclusion to Erik and Livia's love story.
Did you have a moment where the book that you were reading was so good, you cry a little when it ends? This was that book for me. I never wanted it to end.

LJ Andrews weaves a beautiful story of love, politics, intrigue, adventure and found family. The world building just got even better. The biggest highlight for me were all the side characters, they were written so well and held their own, I instantly fell in love with them all. It was not only Erik and Livia's story, it was a beautiful story of all the people that loved them and considered them family, and stood by them.
I laughed, I cried, I lost my cool, I smiled while reading this book. It was a whirlwind of emotions one after another. 🤣

Erik and Livia will always have my heart and this book only cemented that status. The way they love, respect, care and support each other is just swoon worthy.

Ending with my favorite quote from the book.

The Ever Queen is the second instalment in The Ever Seas series which marks the end to Livia Ferus and Erik Bloodsinger's duet, but is not the end to the series by author L.J. Andrews. This series will continue to featuring side-character standalone romances set within the same world. Livia Ferus, crowned Queen of the Ever, has been betrayed and kidnapped by an unlikely foe. In light of an agonising betrayal and determined to return to her ferocious mate's side, Livia must challenge all of her self-doubt in order to survive and learn about the enemies that have stolen her away from her home. Erik Bloodsinger will do whatever it takes to see the woman he loves returned to him alive. Even if that means facing the unknown of his mate's homeland in the hopes of securing the help of her father; the man who murdered his own. Met with hate and distrust, Erik is running out of time and is growing desperate to rescue his mate from a man he thought he knew and once trusted. As opposing forces seek to drive them apart, Erik and Livia must work harder than ever to return to one another's arms and take a stance against those that wish to tear them down. A battle of two Heirs is on the rise... and only one can emerge victorious as King of the Ever.

To say I squealed when I received the email that I had been approved to receive an early copy of The Ever Queen is an understatement. I absolutely adored The Ever King when I finally picked it up several months back, and the conclusion to Livia and Erik's duet did not disappoint. The pacing of this book was consistent with the first instalment to the series with its descriptive writing which left me enraptured from beginning to end. I could not put this book down and finished it within one sitting... that's how obsessed I am. I was thrilled to see a more present role from Valen Ferus, father of Livia and the main character in the first three books in The Broken Kingdom series, and Steig. I adored both characters within their original series, and it's such a joy to see a more present role on-page with the others including Elise, Kase, Sol, Tor, Ari and more. I'm so impressed with how seamlessly author L.J. Andrews has weaved and combined a lore filled with the past and the present, making new readers read with ease whilst previous readers can better appreciate and enjoy the inclusion of characters we have already grown to know and love.

This book has just further cemented my sheer love and adoration for all things Livia Ferus. Livia holds all of the best qualities from her parents, and to see her utilise those qualities and strengths is such a joy as a fan of Valen and Elise. I always knew Valen would be the most amazing girl-dad, and his role within this book just further solidifies that claim. I adore that as a father Valen undoubtedly wants to see his children safe, loved and out of harm. Livia undergoes a lot of despair and torment in the first half of this story, and seeing the raw love and sense of family that she shares with her father is so special. Valen knows that as much as he wants to lock Livia away in a tower and throw away the key, he could never stop her from facing her fate and her potential. Valen is the best father, supporter, warrior, and leader to his children and people, and his involvement and addition to the story made it all the more sweeter. I already adored Livia as a character from The Ever King, and yet I had found more space for that love to grow after finishing The Ever Queen. Livia's loyalty and fierceness are her greatest attributes, as are her loving and forgiving nature. She proves that she is not a woman who is to be deemed as meek and docile, and is instead a worthy adversary of her own right. Livia's growth and strength was a thrilling journey to go on, and as sad as I am to be leaving her point-of-view in future instalments to the series, I firmly believe this will not be the last that we see or hear of Livia Ferus.

The Ever Queen offers a deeper insight into the emotional vulnerability that can surround a deadly Sea Fae such as Erik Bloodsinger, King of the Ever. After the betrayal of a man he trusted and the kidnapping of his beloved mate, Erik is forced to seek help from outside forces who wish to see him dead as opposed to offering him the aid that he seeks. We see Erik go to great lengths and willingly risk his life several times to ensure the safe return of Livia. I absolutely loved the thrilling and deadly introduction to Erik during The Ever King, and I was glad to see a great deal of growth to his character in the second instalment to this series. Still dangerous and deadly to any who cross him, but with a reluctant willingness to emotionally let more people in. It was emotionally moving to read as Erik realised that he had never truly been as alone as he had thought, and that blood isn't all that made a family. The explosive introduction between Erik and Valen as they forged a tentative agreement to see Livia returned home safely, his unspoken kinship with Steig, and the bonds he forged with his crew on the Ever Ship. Erik's journey is more emotionally driven as opposed to physical, and seeing him gain a new insight on life and what being the ruler of the Ever Kingdom can be is absolutely everything. I'm going to miss this villainous and poisonous man so much, and I hope to see more appearances of him in future instalments to the series.

I am truly amazed and impressed with the follow-up and conclusion to Erik and Livia's duet in The Ever Queen. Author L.J. Andrews has set out to impress with the strong addition to The Ever Seas series, and I cannot wait to see what comes next for Jonas in his story The Mist Thief: A Dark Fantasy Romance.

5.0 out of 5 stars A satisfying and swoonworthy conclusion
Reviewed in Australia on March 21, 2024

An extremely satisfying and swoonworthy conclusion to Erik & Livia's story.

The Ever Queen starts immediately where The Ever King left off, and continues at a pace which makes you power through the book from start to finish.

As there are dual POV's (Erik and Livia) and different things happening to them both, of course, you can't help but stray to wanting to read one POV over the other. However, this being said, it doesn't make the other POV or what is happening to them in this POV any less interesting. I think for me, it personally boils down to having read her The Broken Kingdoms series first, and having a love for the characters we see there that made me immediately become invested in one POV more than the other. But like I mentioned, wanting one POV more does not mean I didn't enjoy or like the other POV, I loved it.

As this is a duology for Erik and Livia's story, the pace is quite fast, but it's masterfully written, as it doesn't feel rushed and everything that needs to happen, does happen in a reasonable amount of time. It also leaves room for the expansion of this series to other characters and leaves you (as always with LJ's books) in a book induced slump (in the best way possible) and eagerly anticipating the next book in the series and future books as well.
