About this listen
Dawn mage. Twilight mage. Cursed, useless, damaged, dangerous…
His birth magic leaves Prince Nikola with nothing but bad choices: live as another man's possession, subject to his whims and his desires, or remain dependent on a potion that stunts his powers and prevents him from knowing love.
Andreas vows to protect the prince with his life—whether Nikola wants him to or not. After all, the queen pays his soldier's wage. Nikola's nothing but a job to do.
But when they find themselves stranded, with Nikola's potion running out, Andreas has to… improvise. Because what Prince Nikola needs to survive is the opposite of a lowly guard's respectful protection.
It should've been only one night. Just until the potion's refilled. But since Nikola had Andreas's touch, he craves Andreas again and again. He shouldn't. But he—and his magic—can't live without it…

Story
I've spent most of my life knowing that supernatural creatures exist but never really interacting with any, so my knowledge of them is limited. Still, who would've thought a demisexual incubus was a thing? Well apparently, not only is it a thing, but I have one who claims to be my soulmate—or viramore, as he calls it. And now he has it in his head that he's going to save me from my past.

I was born to kill the emperor, but first, I must marry him. I trained as an assassin while my twin sister trained to be the empress. My life will be forfeit once I murder the most powerful man on the continent, but I have no choice. If I fail, the Imperium will consume our nation and anyone who rises against them. Too soon, we walk into the glittering imperial court, each step taking us closer to the dangerous man on the black throne, my sister’s future husband, the newly crowned Emperor of the Southern Imperium.

Story
When ghostwriter Maz Amani inherits a house from an uncle he’s never heard of, he offers heartfelt thanks to the universe, packs up his car, his cat, and his skepticism about mysterious uncles leaving all their worldly goods to unknown nephews, and high-tails it to a small town halfway to the Oregon coast. Anything would be better than week after week of couch surfing his way around Portland. Even if the alleged house is a rundown shack ridden with termites, spiders, and—shudder—rats, he’ll deal. Because hey, he owns a house!

George Hunt can think of nothing he’d like more than to skip the high-society fundraiser where he has to guard a precocious seventeen-year-old girl and her judgmental therapist, but there’s no way out of it. If anything bad were to happen and he wasn’t there to stop it, he’d never forgive himself. So even though she’s grilling him about his dating life and the good doctor is psychoanalyzing him, he’s going to soldier on, because protecting his charges is what a knight does.

Ash is technically a fire mage, but he can't do much. Turning his bedroom lights on and off without having to get out of bed isn't exactly awe inspiring, not when anyone with the right gadget could clap and do the same thing. Worse, sometimes he senses something bigger and brighter lurking under his skin, and it feels so familiar he knows it has to be his magic, but then he burps or sneezes, and the feeling passes. So it's probably just allergies . . . or gas. Yeah . . . Not exactly brimming with magical oomph. Not anymore. It sucks.

Weirdly, people don’t react overly well when you’re caught standing over the dead body of a murderer who’d walked free. It’s not that I thought my fellow homicide detective would rejoice when he saw what I’d done, but is a pat on the back too much to ask for? Maybe a gold star at the very least? The problem is that the person who caught me is Gabriel, the only person I care for and adore… and he’s prepared to look the other way if I leave homicide and promise to never kill again.

I was overlooked most of my life. Quiet, nerdy, and someone people didn't notice. But he saw me. Adrian Kennedy was kind whereas others were indifferent. He laughed, not at me, but because of me. Because he believed I was the funniest person he knew. I was myself with him—stripped bare, exposed. Raw and open in a way I've never known since. I was his, and he was mine. But I was a secret. Perhaps an experiment. Pushed aside when things got too scary. Too real. His kindness turned into cruelty, not because of words he said, but because he was unaware of what his rejection felt like.

Shaman, necromancer, a little on the snarky side...no one could ever accuse him of being boring. But one thing he never intended to be was imprisoned by angry werewolves. The Alpha Experiment: When a half-werewolf geneticist needs to activate his dormant genes, it's just common sense to get up close and personal with his werewolf bestie.

But when an arcanist murders a fellow scholar, Seth finds himself assigned instead to a dusty, thirsty, frustrating manhunt. Why him?

One Spicy Story
If you're looking for a story that takes spice to a whole new level, look no further. There is plenty of story and plot, and it takes the subject matter seriously, delving into how difficult living with such a condition would truly be, which was unexpected. There is a lot of depth to the characters, brought alive beautifully with Graves' excellent narration. Be ready for the spice! Once it shows up, it stays. There is a bit of a trigger warning for later in the book, but for those who worry, nothing truly bad happens to our beloved Nikola and Andreas, although their journey is far from easy. The story was fantastic, but the epilogue really sealed it. Wonderfully well written, beautifully performed, and well worth a relisten!

Succulent
I came here from another Eliot Grayson series and while Kirt Graves does a wonderful job, his voice is a bit nasally for my liking. That being said, I love being able to piece apart voices without the voices being too, eh, cartoony.
This book is also in 1st person and I specifically went to another book from this author because the last book was in 3rd person and wonderfully vivid and flowery. Fortunately, that is not lost in 1st person! Even with a single POV the whole book!
I was easily sucked into the premise and story. Yes I came for the sexy times, which there are plenty. More sex and emotionally dramatic than plot heavy, but that is what I'm looking for these days! Nico and Andreas (sorry if I misspelled anything. The review section glitches out if I leave and come back) are an adorable couple and I'm kind of living for these insecure bois.

I’m absolutely in love with this series and squealed when it came out on audio.
But Kirt?!
SIR?!
I didn’t think I could love it anymore but holy I so do. His absolute emotion while reading this wrecked me. I’m going to now shove this in peoples faces because HOLY he’s amazing. Now I’m going to go and relisten to it.

The story was extraordinary & Kirt Graves has a wonderful intensity for building up desire
I read this years ago and just now listened to the audiobook. I had forgotten much of the plot, which helped listening again.
I think the details of sex in the book would help inspire male sexual virgins learn how to please their male lovers.
The story was well written and beautifully shows how to structure a plot to make it appear to be inevitable that the happily ever after is achieved. The conflicts were soundly constructed and advanced the plot and demanded sacrifices to achieve that allowed each character to better express what they feared would trap themselves or the other. I loved the narrator describing the sex scenes which were richly detailed.

Go on quest, sexy times every quarter mile, quest forgotten
Let's be honest, this is purely fan service. There's no world building, no character development, barely even a plot line. But there is plenty of sex. So much so that I was honestly done with this book 5 hours in, but told myself to finish it before I left a review. Two characters, woe-as-me mage prince, and buff body guard with a beer can for a package, go off on an adventure through the woods with a horse named Fluffy. Along the way they manage to stumble into each other's bed at every mile marker. Just when you think the story is going to move along with the adventuring, their pants disappear again. It honestly became so monotonous that I zoned out during each scene. But wait, there's a twist! Betrayal! While this was never a 2 party adventure, they are talked about less that NPCs. They fight, cry over dead love, narrowly avoid rape, love comes back, love almost dies again, prince sacrifices self for love interest, love interest pissed, quest forgotten. It felt like a very forced plot line towards the end of the book after hours of them screwing around. Honestly this book is like AU Omega-verse, where instead of omegas in heat with a knotty need, it's mage princes begging to be filled and only mans magic juice can quench the fire inside him. The narrator is great, but the book wasn't worth a credit.

That's... not how consent works
The first sex scene basically reads like magic and pain incentivized rape to me, and that being the starting point badly soured my experience of the narrative.
*partial spoiler*
The social vs. physical power imbalances in the relationship is intentional kink. However, something about the first sex scene went beyond that IMO. And the MC's low seld-estem puts things on especially shakey grounds.
The sudden-onset "compulsion" as the MC puts it, to have it sex with whoever happens to be in the room, doesn't translate to implied-consent. Not even/especially not because it's such a wonderful shock to the MC in that moment that someone/anyone might be willing...

All sex no story
I prefer books that have at least a semblance of plot, after a certain point this was basically nothing but one sex scene after another.
