Wow what amazing book to this series. I loved this book and waited long time for to come out and was very excited to read when I received to read. This is a must read series that is taboo side/dark side to it but well worth the read.

The story takes off where book 4 ended, and while 4 was a lot of filler, this one brings more action.

Doe is an unique mix of strong and breakable that I really really love, and that really shows in this one.

The sexy scenes weren’t written all that explicit imo, but there were a couple there. We also get out first real FF between Odette and Doe.

Some parts of the book did lag a bit, but there was more happening than the previous one so that’s why I give 4 stars this time around.

I have been waiting on this book for months you guys. And it did NOT disappoint.
@nikkiraeauthor reached out to me last year when I started my booksta and asked if I would be interested in reading her series The Order. I had no idea what to expect and went in completely blind.
Y'ALL. Don't sleep on this series. It is SO GOOD. It is definitely on the taboo side/dark side and definitely has some triggering topics for some. But I love everything about it.
Nikki's writing is phenomenal, in my opinion and her ability to bring these characters to life is just amazing.
Harvest is book 5 in this series and it honestly had just as much substance as the rest of her books. You know when someone writes a series and it seems to drag, or it seems forced? This is not the case with Harvest. This book takes Fawn on a completely new "adventure", takes her to new limits, and helps her find herself in ways she never had before. I loved being able to see Fawn's relationship with Odette grow as the book went on!
I will say, this book isn't my favorite of the series, but I still absolutely loved it!
Also, fair warning, it does end on one hell of a cliff hanger, so be aware of that going in. Don't be one of those people who rates badly just because there is a cliff hanger. This book is part of a series and needs to be read in order. Be aware of that going in!
Thank you so so much Nikki for allowing me to read your newest book baby! I loved it so much and can't wait to see what's in store for Fawn, Elliot, Marius, and Odette!

The amount of anxiety that filled me throughout these books should be illegal. I had to take a small break after the fourth book to reread something and ground myself before I kept going. The amount of deception for the “greater good” is amplified in Harvest and manipulation is around every corner. I felt like I was reading a psychological thriller, and I couldn’t put it down.

I was totally not expecting some of what happens in this book! Each book I read in the story I feel like I know what's going to happen, and then BAM, Nikki throws us a curve ball! This book in particular is definitely dark as it mainly centers around the characters being in the wolf manor. With that being said, please read the warning before beginning the book! The smut in this is definitely heating up with some fxf, mxfxm, fxmxf, and mxm. There is even a scene with Elliot and someone that you'll never see coming! Love these books and can't wait for the next!

A version of this review was published on Lost in a Good Book

Note: I received a copy of this book to review from the author

This is the fifth book in The Order series and it was full of the darkness, lust, pain, and power that this series has been synonymous with over the years. Where in previous books there has been unease and anticipation, not to mention excitement as Fawn works to defy and bring down the system, there is a feeling of constant tension through this story as you never know where it will go and what these characters will do.

There is a greater focus on the dark romance and BDSM aspects of this story and it fills up a lot of the pages but everything has a purpose and Rae uses it well to show not only who is actually controlling who, but also as manipulation and to highlight how there are two agendas and purposes being played at the same time. There are clear warnings at the beginning of the book regarding the content but this is a topic that can be hard to read about even knowing the subject matter going in.

This isn’t a series you can jump into at any point, this one especially offers little in way of explaining the larger plotlines. Rae has built up a world through the past four books that show the depth of the world and these relationships and with this fifth it is a hint at what I hope to be a fantastic world crumbling conclusion it’s been building up to be.

After the shock of the previous book’s conclusion I wasn’t sure what I was going to be met with but this is a nice balance between furthering the story, enhancing the characters and their relationships, and being another small step in the bigger picture. Fawn alters between being strong and defiant, manipulative and able to master her emotions to trick when she needs to, and being weak and fragile. I’ve said before I love Fawn best when she is defiant and prepared to burn the world down so I’m glad I got a few glimpses of that in this book.

This was a slow build but one that wasn’t unsatisfying. The tension and uncertainty around the Wolf’s actions and the unknown of how this group of people will act confined to a house, each with their own roles to play, was one that keeps you guessing and on edge. There are negotiations and punishments on both sides and the sudden shifts and the unexpected are what Rae does best. Spending an entire book on edge never knowing what could happen is a feeling that is perfect for the kind of story Rae is trying to tell.

Original review

This book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Nikki Rae!

Harvest is the fifth book in The Order series and continues Fawn, Elliot, Marius and Odette.

Nikki Rae is one of my favourite self-published authors and she makes me go crazy with the books from The Order series. Every time I finish the next book in this series, I don’t know how to feel. I keep thinking about what happened in this book and whether or not some characters have spoken the truth or have been honest. I question everything that happens in every book, and even though I hate it, I also love it.

The world that Nikki Rae has created for this series is kinda disturbing but I cannot get enough of it. I think that the story is really intriguing and you want to know what is going to happen to the characters. I think that every book in this series is so good and Harvest isn’t an exception. I really enjoyed reading about Fawn and the others and I just cannot get enough of them. I kinda love this disturbing world, and I think it’s just so interesting to read about.

I love Fawn, I think she’s changed so much throughout the series. Even though she’s still broken, I also think that she’s gotten stronger. I love her connection with Elliot, Marius and Odette. Even though it’s all so weird (as in the world and the twisted/cruel games), I love that she got to meet these 3 people. Even though I still question everything that Elliot does, I still love him and find him so attractive, ugh! But I mustn’t forget Marius and Odette, they’re so attractive too. I’d date all of them!

I have to admit that I kinda forgot what happened in the previous book (I just read so many books), but once I was in the story and remembered everything, I couldn’t put this book down. I really loved reading about Fawn again and I really missed her. I’m really looking forward to the next book in the series. Let’s hope that we don’t have to wait too long, I wanna know what’s going to happen next!
