My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Master Oradea is the tenth book in the Masters of the Consulate series by Sylvia Black. It is another dark paranormal romance with enemies to lovers, a rogue vampire faction, shifters, witches, magic, pure bloods, politics, agendas, fated mates, drama, danger, tension, intrigue, chemistry, sizzle, action, and more. Again, as with the rest of the series, this is told from a duel POV- which helps deliver a fuller perspective.
This is Master Oradea and Natalia Benzini’s story- a dark, tense, romantic suspense-that not only tells their story, but also helps build the background story which has been developing throughout the entire series.
It is because of this ‘overarching, background’ story that I highly recommend reading the entire series, in sequence, so you have all the important details, character, and other relevant information on board- otherwise there might be some undue confusion.
There is a lot going on, and a large ‘cast’ of characters, so even though each book focuses on one individual ‘couple’- there is a recurring cast which pops up in instalments throughout the series- so ‘knowing ‘who is who’ helps.
As this ends on a bit of a cliffy, which is set to continue in the next is instalment — “Master Bistrita” (Book #11).
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Sylvia Black!

Sylvia has done another fantastic job on this series. In this book we meet Master Oradea and Natalia. While it is a stand-alone, it does follow the storyline of the rest of the Masters of the Consulate series, so I do suggest reading the previous stories to get a general idea of the storyline and what’s going on. The chemistry between Oradea and Natalia was burning off the page. Natalia’s fiery personality clashes with Oradea’s dominant. Secrets are being stolen and revealed, and lines are being drawn. Who comes out on top and who doesn’t come out unscathed? I loved reading this book, and the characters were wonderfully well done!

I enjoyed this book and it was very nice to read the continuing story about the master vampires and their loves. This book is about Oradea and Natalia and how they find each other in the midst of the battle that is going on. I enjoyed being able to follow their journey and how even through the twists and turns of the battle they were in, they came together. This is an excellent series and I recommend it to others that enjoy paranormal romance.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is the first book I’ve read by this author, and while it is a short, simple read, I did have a lot of moments where I was confused and unsure of the plot. While it is the 10th book in the series, it is marketed as a stand alone novel, but if you’re going to get started in this series, the I would suggest starting at book one, since it’s across the same universe. It personally isn’t something that I was absolutely 100% enthralled with. I liked the book, I like vampire and mafia novels, but this one just wasn’t something I loved a whole lot. I struggled to get into the story, and it just seemed to drag for me. However, that shouldn’t stop you from trying it out, because you might enjoy it more than I did. It just wasn’t for me.

I was so excited to get my hands on the next book on this series. By book 10, most series have started to wan and lose their grip on me but this one just keeps getting better and better. I was pulled straight into these books and the characters. I loved getting to know them and discovering even more about this world I have come to love.
This author really has an interesting writing style. Her books have a dark and intense feeling to them and yet they are so easy to read because of how well written they are. This series has easily become one of my favourite to read and I cannot wait to see what else this author has to offer.

So I think this story might be my favorite so far in the series. I appreciate that each story is standalone, but it’s definitely helpful to have read the whole series to really get a full understanding of what is going on. We have vampires, werewolves, witches, and humans all working together to defeat the rogue traitors trying to drag everything back to the way it was centuries ago. Oradea’s territory has been invaded by the rogues and he is determined to take them out. He doesn’t count on meeting and immediately being drawn to protect Natalia, a human whose brothers are involved in the syndicate. Neither of them have any intentions of wanting the other, but the temptation becomes too great. I loved that this story really carried a lot of the plotline with the rogues even further and definitely had me reading quickly to discover what was going to happen. Plenty of action, romance, betrayal, love, twists, turns, and steamy in this book. I can’t wait to read the next book and see what happens.

This was a great 5 star read. I continue to get pulled into this great series. When Natalia finds herself in danger, her brothers get protection for her. And she is not happy about it. Oradea is determined to keep her safe. Things definitely got steamy between these two.
Overall I really enjoyed this story and the characters. I really like that it was in dual POV. We get witches, vampires and so much more. There are so many different things about this story that pull me in, I loved the storyline. All of the characters added a great element to the story. I look forward to reading more from this author and series. 1-click and get started today.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Master Oradea is the 10th book in the Masters of the Consulate series, but you don’t have to read them all. I have only read book 9 and this one, so far. This book does pickup where book 9 leaves off, and has the same characters for the most part. However, I jumped right into the story and caught on quick. There is about to be a big war between the underworld …factions? Not sure that’s the right word- The vampires, witches, shifters and humans. The vampires don’t know who they can trust and its weighing on everyone. Natalia is human (or so we think…..), the only daughter of a powerful family. She is strongly protected by her 4 brothers, but they enter in to business with the vampires and quickly learn they may not be able to keep her safe. So, she is sent off with Master Ordea to be her guard until the Rogue vampires are captured. But, like any good vampire story, there is a quick attraction between the 2. I think this book is much like the previous, and it is a perfect balance of steamy and suspense. I look forward to back reading in the series, I love the characters and their strength and connections.

Another Master is about to fall in Master Oradea. Lucas is now an enemy in this current underworld war. The vampires lead by Overmaster Descallia are now in Master Oradea’s territory looking for Lucas. The author brings us into a world I love so much. A world that shouldn’t be read as a standalone novel. These books should be read in succession. They all pick up where the previous book left off. The author has you falling in love with characters, feeling frustrated about them, happy, sad ect. This book is no different!
Master Oradea is now the lead in looking for the rogues and trying to put an end to the war amongst supernatural beings. When the sister of Benzini brothers not only catches his eye but because she was threatened he’s the only one who can keep her safe.
Can he resist her?
Will he be able to keep her safe?
Don’t underestimate Natalia, she’s definitely paying attention. Between her brothers deals within the syndicate. To a gorgeous master who graces the bar with his presence. That same master’s presence is the reason she was threatened. Why is he now the only one who can keep her safe from the rogues. Why that could end up being dangerous for her. He’s a vampire and she wants him.
Will she stick with the team?
Will she be able to help with what she was taught by her grandmother as a child?
These books are fast paced and connected. A fantastic story being told that I absolutely love! I’m sure you will too!

I was so excited when I saw this book was out. I absolutely love this series it has become one of my favourites. You are absolutely missing out on all this dark paranormal goodness if you don’t read them all and especially if you don’t read them in order even though they can be read as standalones.
I have said it before, but I will say it again, I have been there since the beginning of this series and Sylvia knows how to write an epic dark paranormal tale that you are unable to put down. I am always instantly lost in the story and to the beauty of the harsh world that Sylvia created.
Master Oradea is the tenth book in the fantastic Masters of the Consulate series where the vampire mafia rule and fated mates are a guarantee.
This is an enemies to lovers story where you get shifters, witches, vampires and more and great writing. The Masters are wonderfully deliciously dark characters who are fierce, loyal and love hard and let’s not forget the sexiness, the passion and the explosive chemistry but cross them and look out.
I cannot wait to get my fingers on the next book Master Bistrita. Bring it!

You’d think that the 10th book in a series would lose some of its luster, but this author has proved me wrong! The Masters of the Consulate series has grown to be one of my favorites over the last couple of years, so I picked this one up without any hesitation. It’s a quick enough read to fit into your day and one you won’t be able to put down either! Sylvia Black has an everlasting talent as she expertly crafts the story of Master Oradea and Natalia. I adore the fact that we get to experience this from dual points of view as it makes it easier to gain each individual perspective. The story flows beautifully, the plot is solid, and the characters are incredibly well developed. I would definitely pick up the previous books in the series to gain the full experience with background. You could probably make do with this as a standalone, but you’ll also feel a bit lost through portions of it without the previous pieces of the puzzle. If you’re looking for a riveting paranormal read that will have you on the edge of your seat, look no further than this. I cannot wait to see what this author has in store for us next!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ooooo. This series is literally life I was up all night waiting for this one to hit. Sylvia Black’s talent in having one every evolving story while also each individual story for each book/couple is inspiring. Dual perspectives of Oradea and Natalia.
Master Oradea is beyond angry at the recent discovery of Lucas, Overmaster Descallia’s right hand man being a traitor and refuses to let him hide in his territory. All the masters are in shock and questioning everyone around them, even the loyalty of Embry. Lucas’s “mate” that he left behind, that has fought time and time again for the vampires as she is now being treated as an enemy. As if all her deeds never existed. Natalia is the younger sister of the Benzini family, with four older brothers. The rogues take interest in her with a warning sent through her for her brothers, her innocence doesn’t go unnoticed by the vampires. When the “plan” around the necklaces doesn’t work as planned the entire group is forced to look at themselves the Masters’ disbelief in the loyalty of the witches, even their own mates cause the power to be zapped from the crystals. Everything needs to change; trust needs to build and begin within the core group of the Master’s and mates as pairs not just to each other as males and females separate or only trusting their own mates. Too many questions and more keep rising as the end gets closer.
Can everyone learn to trust each other? Will Oradea get his enchantress? How can Natalia communicate with them without words? Everything about this series pulls you in. Each book more questions appear and few answers in the build for the sure to be epic finale. Only two books left in the Masters of the Consulate and honestly, I am holding my breath. What will happen next? What secrets will be revealed? Who will betray them next? Book 11, Master Bistrita, July 19th, 2024. I’ll see you there.

This is one of those stories that you can’t tell much about or you give it away. Oradea and Natalia are meant for each other. It just takes them time to realize it. Just a few obstacles get in the way: rogues; brothers; and witches. It’s a fast-paced story that will have you feeling like you are chasing rogues with them. I’m a big fan of multiple POV’s. It makes the story feel personal. Familiar faces make appearances. Everyone is chasing the rogues from Descalia down. There is some steam that will have you wiping off your glasses. It does end with a cliffhanger. I can’t wait for the next one

A vampire master on the hunt for a rogue who got away. An infuriating beauty who won’t do as she’s told. When destiny speaks, will immortal hearts survive?
As a pureblood and dark-souled master, I will capture the rogue vampire trying to steal the secrets that we keep. When we find him, no one will stop me from seeking retribution for the destruction they’ve caused.
Not the shifters, witches, or even the biggest traitor of all.
But when a red-headed beauty gets caught in the crossfire, I must save her from our foes.
That proves harder than it should because the fiery female has powers of her own. When she uses her magical gift, the mystery of the stones exposes a secret we’ve never known.
Battle lines between the witches and vampires become clearly drawn, but that won’t stop me. Whether destiny forbids it or not, I will make the bewitching enchantress my mate.
Master Oradea is the explosive tenth book in the Masters of the Consulate series by Sylvia Black. It is a deliciously dark, fated mates, enemies to lovers, vampire mafia romance. You will love these novels where the passion is fiery, the loyalty is fierce, and the stakes are high. Each book in this collection is a stand-alone, with different characters and a guaranteed happily ever.
