About this listen
Perfect for fans of romantic dark fantasy with spice who loved The Four Horsemen series, and the Black Jewels novels. Step into the realms Of Chaos and Darkness with Neith's debut novel Invoking the Blood. A spicy enemies-to-lovers in a dark fantasy setting with Hades x Persephone vibes and vampires.
What could happen in fifteen minutes?
Faye agreed to her sister’s brilliant idea to sneak into the Hunter’s Moon ball. A night the vampires in attendance held sacred, lusting under the eerie glow of the blood red moon. Faye was no vampire. She wasn’t even a race that possessed magic. Her ceremony failed, marking her an Anarian. A mortal without magic.
After a run in with the Shadow Prince, Faye begins dreaming of him. His yearnful gaze leaves her feeling cherished after she wakes. A pleasant daydream, since men like him didn’t exist. Not for women like her.
But as days pass and the dreams intensify, the Shadow Prince comes for her. His gaze filled with the same yearning he held for her during their shared dreams. Until he realizes she’s an Anarian.
Abducted and confined in his home in Hell, Faye is left only with his promise to release her after he breaks the tie binding his life to hers. But with each heated exchange she can almost see the man that longed for her in her dreams.The one who cherished her and tempted her heart.

Story
Long ago, Requiem was plagued by war and abandoned by the gods but Death saved the suffering people, giving each soul a hundred years of immortality. With that grace, he also sent two Maidens. One of Life, for healing and comfort, and one of Death, the only person in the world with the ability to kill. Generations later, the Life Maiden is missing and Princess Deyanira is nothing more than a trained weapon. A hunter. A murderer wrenched into Death's dark court to have the name of her next victim seared onto her palm.

The Gods split the skies and rained down tyranny upon the mortal realm long ago. Ever since then, the only thing worse than being human is being of Divine Blood. For someone like me—an undocumented God child, indebted to the Underworld Assassination Guild—that means only one thing: A life in the shadows. Or so it should have been . . . until Mortal Gods Academy. Until them.

I was fifteen when the Death King came for us. With a mighty black dragon and the ability to command the dead, he raised an army of our fallen soldiers to fight for him—and conquered us in the night. My father, King Laurier of Scorpion Valley, couldn’t stop him. I tried to flee but came face to face with the man in black armor, the man who looked more like a god than a human. Instead of killing me, he chose to show me mercy… but it didn’t feel like mercy. Not when the next ten years of my life are spent as a slave in the Arid Sands, digging for Black Diamonds from sunrise to sunset.

This must be a mistake. There's no way the Goddess chose me to be a demon's bride. I barely have any magick, and certainly not enough to repair the bargain between witches and demons that's kept both our realms stable for centuries. But Eren is… nothing like I expected. Something about him calls to me. Tempts me. And he looks at me like no one else ever has—like I'm strong and worthy. Like he wants to keep me, cherish me… and sink those wicked, wicked fangs of his into me.

The man who already has my heart but could never have my body. The sweet southern gentlemen whose darkness can’t be tamed.

They all think I’ll be easy to use, to control, but I’m nobody’s puppet.

As a human, the fae see me as no better than something they scrape off their shoes. I'm good enough to wipe their butts and clean their sheets, but that's about it. So when I lose my job as a maid, I get the fun choice of either becoming a whore or starving to death—until a fae prince presents me with a plan involving a magical spell that will make the world believe I'm his mate. I don't trust the prince one bit, but left with no other choice, I agree. Only, the spell goes wrong and instead of matching with just him, I'm matched with all four of the fae princes.

Abso-flogging-lutely amazing
The femdom was perfect. Watching her come into her Dommeliness was a moderate burn, but so worth it. I loved that it explained the crystals (the physical copy has a breakdown in the beginning). I just wish there was a breakdown for the races, extinct or not. 10/10!

Slow burn
A dark fantasy romance that takes slow burn seriously. This book dances around the relationship of the MMC and FMC while the side story is trying to figure out where the FMC belongs in this world. She is tied to a vampire prince with a split personality who is the devil on his shoulder and difficult to keep tame. Although his monstrous side is 100% devoted to her and gives her the attention she has always craved.

Enemies to lovers w/plenty of heat, hate & humor!
For months, I had been eyeing Kalista Neith's Invoking the Blood on bookstagram. I was intrigued by the promise of a dark fantasy romance with Hades and Persephone vibes, a violent yet passionate world filled with vampires and other super natural beings, an enemies to lovers relationship with plenty of fire and a feral vampiric blood lust whose personality and devotion to his mate can only be described as the cinnamon roll filled with razor blades that you never knew you needed.
Have I got your attention yet? Needless to say, from the moment I started this book, Kalista pulled me into to this rich, luscious and oh so sinful world and never let me go. As the story opens, we meet Faye, a young woman who has spent her whole life searching for the place where she belongs. She has grown up in a world where one's worth is measured by the power one wields and unfortunately for Faye, up to this point her shard, the symbol of one's power, has not materialized. Faye is enraged by how society's powerful elite, particularly the dark bloods, look down on human life. However, Faye does not know what she can do to stand up for the humans of her village, where she lives with her outspoken and mischief making adopted shape shifter sister, Sparrow.
Fate, of course, has other plans and when Faye and Sparrow sneak into a dark blood celebration, she crosses paths with the infamous Prince of Hell, Rune. Rune has lived over 3,000 years and while he has a reputation of being one of the most ruthless vampires, he craves a partner, an equal and a powerful Queen who can rule alongside him and whom he can worship completely. Rune's primal bloodlust, known as the Ra'Voshnik, immediately hones in on Faye as their mate and becomes consumed with being united with her.
Faye finds herself drawn to the mysterious vampire as they share intense connections in their dreams. Soon enough, circumstances force Rune to bring Faye to Hell and he is horrified to find out that despite the inexplicable draw he feels to her, she is without a shard. Rune refuses to believe that fate has cursed him to be tied to a powerless and vulnerable human. He is determined to break whatever bond is tying him to Faye, while his bloodlust, who Faye lovingly nicknames Voshki, is absolutely enraged that Rune would dare to deny their queen.
This is a true enemy to lovers story and I absolutely loved that Kalista really focuses on the evolution and development of the characters in this first book. Rune is ancient and his behaviors and prejudices are not ones that change over night. He's got an almost Darcy-like vibe, which of course means I'm going to have a soft spot for him. There is plenty of tension and passion as Rune and Faye tow the fine line of attraction and hate and it is made even more complicated by the fact that Voshki is absolutely to devoted to Faye. However, Kalista really gives space for Rune and Faye to make mistakes and learn more about each other and themselves as they navigate their growing connection. It makes the payoff that much more rewarding and let me tell you when Kalista brings the spice it's absolutely fantastic.
Beyond the romance and the simmering tension, I also really appreciated the moments of humor and levity that Kalista brings to the story. In particular, the dynamic between Rune and his bloodlust, Voshki, makes for some fantastically humorous dialogue as Rune is literally fighting against the primal part of himself that craves Faye as his mate. Voshki is not shy to call out Rune when he treats Faye badly and is the epitome of 'touch her and die' if he senses anyone disrespecting his queen. Kalista also is able to weave in poignant messages about race and the inequity between classes, as Faye opens Rune's eyes to the injustice that the dark blook ruling class perpetrates on those they consider beneath them.
I absolutely devoured this book and cannot wait to see how things evolve in book 2. I listened to this in audiobook, which was in a duet style and I really enjoyed how this format brought to life the dual POV structure of the story. Both narrators were new to me and I thought they were absolutely masterful in bringing these characters to life--especially Corvin King, whose demonstrated an incredible range in voicing two extremely different personalities that share one physical body.
I thoroughly enjoyed my first book by Kalista Neith and I am still going through Rune and Voshki withdrawal. Definitely jump into this series if you are looking for a dark fantasy romance that brings the hate, the heat and the humor.

So Good!!
I’ve read the physical copy of Invoking The Blood and initially rated it 3 stars - however the voice actors that narrated this book really brought it to life and I found myself hooked the entire time! And Rune/Voshki’s VOICE 🤤 I highly recommended this audio book and definitely recommend picking up a copy of A Trial of Lace and Bone once you’re finished. Once you’ve entered the world that Kalista Neith hs woven, you won’t want to leave.
