Story
Lochlann Wilde walks in the shadow of his father, a legendary summoner who commanded mythical beasts in battle. But Locke isn't legendary. He’s barely a summoner, never passing his academy’s trial of the elements. And then he accidentally summons a fae prince with a beautiful body and a bad attitude. Sylvan is fiery and ferocious, stronger than anything Locke has ever encountered. And hotter, too. But time is running out. Locke must tame the prince’s wild heart. If he fails his trial, he’ll lose his inheritance and ruin his family's name.

Story
All vampires suck. Sterling just happens to be very good at it. Vainglorious vampire Sterling is forced to trade his big city hedonism for a trip to a sleepy mountain town, where mangled dead bodies have been discovered. Soon he’s entangled with snooty vampire nobles, territorial werewolves, and a society of law-enforcing sorcerers. The locals aren’t so bad, like the luscious young lady at the fruit shop, or the hunky electrician whose smile sends out sparks. But they’re distractions from the hunt for the mountain murderer.

It’s really hard to pretend like life is normal when you’re staring a monster in the eyes, though he’s both tempting and irritating in his human form. I put my days as a hunter behind me, unable to cope with the death and pain anymore, to become an upstanding citizen and for what? To assist Lake, a man who claims he’s not a monster but keeps talking about me like I’m edible and–even worse–wants to woo me?

Though I was born with the ability to see the dead, I struggled with it until my brother was killed and his ghost was left behind. Now, I’m determined to figure out who is responsible for his death…the problem is that Detective Maddox Booker, the one working the case, is a grumpy and stubborn man who wants nothing to do with me and definitely doesn’t believe in ghosts. It doesn’t help that I keep finding myself looking ridiculous in front of the detective, thanks to interfering ghosts who enjoy laughing at my expense.

well paced story, outstanding narration
Jackson and Xander continue to build their lives together, forging friendships and discovering they have more allies than they realized. There are of course more secrets. More battles fought. Sacrifices made as they continue to rebuild the guild and attempt to stop the fae. The story is well paced and a great continuation of the series.
Zachary Johnson is an outstanding voice actor and excels in this genre. He has immense range and distinct character voices that are so well suited to this series.

Sedgewick Shines
Hand of Glory is the fifth book in the Arcane Hearts series. This is an ongoing series and should be read in order otherwise you’ll be lost.
The moment I have been waiting for finally happens! I was so giddy throughout this book waiting for the big question, but the author kept us on our toes. I won’t spoil it, but overall, it thought it was done with just the right amount of sass and sweetness. Sedgewick was so impressive in this book. He’s been this sweet young guy who kind of faded to the background in the other books, but Sedgewick has a spine of steel. This entire book – from the interaction with Hecate (that was a creepy ceremony, the Grayhaven school dance, and even the fascinating building process of Jackson’s guild – was fantastic. I got sucked into the storyline and enjoyed every moment of it.
The audiobook was narrated by Zachary Johnson who does a great job. Zachary performed this book with skill and energy. The voices were spot on and the action scenes were engrossing. I loved every moment of it.

Brilliant
Loved the story when I first read it. But as always the story takes on a whole other dimension in audio form. The subtle and sultry ways Zachary reads the romantic scenes really do make you blush. I’m so glad Lore is coming into his own. His part always makes me laugh out loud. Can’t wait to hear the next one

Thank you to the author
This author is writing the most beautiful Homo erotic fantasies I'm absolutely grateful for his writing I definitely suggest listening to all. This particular series is a little bit more graphic which is fantastic for the older, But if you listen to his vampire series or the dark series Is same overtones but a little bit more pg.
