About this listen
For a desperate duchess, an Unseelie duke could be the perfect fake fiance.
A fae woman named Tomorrow is set to inherit a wealthy duchy. The one stipulation: she must marry a man of gentle breeding. But to make it to the altar, she'll have to survive her family first. The next in line will stop at nothing to keep her from collecting.
When she's introduced to the Unseelie Duke of the Dead, she's certain he's the partner she's looking for. He's dragon-strong and just as big and frightening as he is handsome. Most importantly, he appears to be as down on his luck as she is.
The Duke of the Dead . . .
Darko lost everything to war and a tyrannical father. When Tomorrow approaches him with a promised fortune and an offer to act as her pretend lover, he's intrigued.
As they work together to thwart her enemies, a mate bond begins to bud between them, but Tomorrow has secrets she's not yet ready to share. She warns Darko against forming an attachment, but what happens when the duke is done playing pretend?
Contains mature themes.

Story
Mating is a matter of politics for Night, not the heart. To prevent a forced union that will plunge the Lunar Court into war, he must find and bond his true mate. When he lays eyes on Rain, he knows the shy forest witch is the bond mate he's been searching for. Unprepared for the intensity of his attraction, Night makes an offer that would keep his priorities straight and his court safe: a marriage of convenience. Any eligible woman—mortal and immortal alike—would leap at the chance to become the powerful duke's bride. But Rain isn't interested.

With Morrigan and her generals dead, they are finally free to roam both realms once more.

Marion enjoys her quiet life of solitude in the shadowy woods of the Black Veil, where even the local villagers don’t dare venture. She sells her healing potions at the village market by day and tends to her otherworldly garden by night, caring for her magical bees and furry familiar, Peek, at their cottage. Then, one moonlit night, she encounters a devilishly handsome male—with powerful wings, sharp fangs, and high fae-like beauty—shot through with a lethal poisoned arrow.

I'm the next in line for Fyrifirar Tribe Jarl, a skilled warrior, and definitely not good at chopping down trees. But I can't stop thinking about the tiny human female who we'd found near our village with eleven other human females. She's so small, barely larger than an orkin child, and so lovely I can't get her out of my mind. And then I went and nearly killed her while felling a tree to distract myself. Yet somehow, she still ended up in my arms.

Story
When the Monster Relations Bureau tells me I've been identified as a kraken shifter's mate, my first instinct is to run. I learned the hard way what it means to be treated like someone's possession, and I'm not about to make the same mistake twice. Only, Elias is… different. Patient and careful with me, willing to wait as long as it takes for me to let him in. The more I learn to trust him, and the more he draws me under with the dark temptation of his touch, the more the defenses I've held onto for so long start to crumble.

When my sister thrifts an aged map with iridescent lettering leading to a town called Ever, I roll my eyes. According to a quick internet search, the town doesn't exist. We only manage to find it with the help of a sexy gas station owner who offers to come for me if I call him. Swoon. I quickly learn that Shepherd isn't actually human; nobody in town is. News flash—he's a gargoyle—a dominant, possessive, crème brûlée-loving monster. That should terrify me, but something about him keeps me coming back.

A must read for romantasy fans who love banter
Content Warning: Grief and loss, foul language, sex work, mild fantasy violence, and open-door sexual scenes between consenting partners including tail play
Fans of A. K. Caggiano's witty banter and rich world building, but who need a bit of a break from the deep dark and high stakes of their novel She's All Thaumaturgy will appreciate S. L. Prater's Dance with the Dragon Duke (2024), a standalone novel in the Fae Tricksters series.
Prater wraps up the series by exploring entirely new ground: an Unseelie male lead, Darko Yaga, who is nothing like the brutish dragons we've encountered before, and Tomorrow, a frail but brave female lead who is neither a warrior nor a witch when we start our story.
All Tomorrow wants is to be safe from the machinations of her upper-class relatives, who are desperate to get their hands on her inheritance. A fake engagement with the Duke of the Dead seems like hitting two birds with one stone; she receives his protection and fulfills the one requirement that stands in the way of claiming the only gift her father ever gave her. What Tomorrow doesn't anticipate is the blooming bond that sparks between them, putting both of their hearts at risk as she holds a life-changing secret close to her chest.
Alternating between Darko and Tomorrow's perspectives, narrators Liam Price and Victoria Aston bring Prater's characters to life, deftly handling the up-and-down emotions that make up this wild ride.
I highly recommend Dance with the Dragon Duke by S. L. Prater to anyone who loves a chuckle-inducing romantasy with solid side characters and lovable leads that are hard to put down.
And I especially recommend the audiobook to my fellow neurospicy readers. As someone who struggles with auditory processing, I never thought I'd be able to enjoy this often-recommended reading format. Thank you, Tantor Audio, for producing content I can enjoy just like everybody else.
