About this listen
A dark fae king, three deadly trials and a forbidden passion that could destroy everything....
A sexy new series perfect for fans of: Half-Blood Academy, Bound to the Battle God and Stolen by the Fae King!
Fae exist only in children’s stories, or so I thought. That was before a nightmarish creature of the Fae Realm dropped into my life. He claimed a seven-pointed mark on my skin signified my magical lineage, the bit of DNA my mother passed down. Days after I arrive in the Fae Realm, I’m thrown into a series of trials titled ‘The Devotion’. I must compete with demons, vampires, elves and more who want to claim their place at the future King’s side. I have no interest in this guy, but it doesn’t help that the King-to-be is a gorgeous, brooding fae. He’s dominant, commanding and everything I shouldn’t want. But the longer I’m here, the more I’m questioning everything - including my own heart.

Then my sister is called upon to make the ultimate sacrifice. Unable to lose the one person I love, I take her place willingly, protecting her the only way I can.

A week before Lenore Warwick's 21st birthday, she's kidnapped by the brooding and dangerous stranger with cold eyes and a lethal touch, who has been stalking her on San Francisco's fog-shrouded streets. Absolon "Solon" Stavig isn't your average criminal though. He's a centuries-old vampire who's caught between wanting to kill Lenore and wanting to save her.

Until Alaya - a young woman with a hidden Serpent mark who shouldn't exist - accidentally wakes one of them up. Then another. She must seek the truth about her lost clan and the so-called curses they left behind. About her true home.

Everything about my life is a lie. As a hidden twin princess, born second, I have only one purpose―to sacrifice my life for my sister if death comes for her. I’ve been living under the guise of a poor, obscure girl of no standing, slipping into the palace and into the role of the true princess when danger is present. Now the queen is dead and the ageless King Eidolon has sent my sister a gift―an eerily familiar gift―and a proposal to wed. I don’t trust him, so I do what I was born to do and secretly take her place on the eve of the coronation.

Evil doesn't exist. Neither does "good". Vampires do, though. I just happen to be one. I've cruised through the centuries managing to avoid all the wars, supernatural and human, but still going to all the best parties. I would say I avoided bloodshed, but it's kind of part of the whole "vampire" thing. I've lived on the fringes of a society that considered cruelty and sadism favorable character traits for almost 500 years. Now, I'm in the middle of a war that might just put my non-beating heart in a lot of danger.

it will suck you in
I absolutely love Fae stories and this one did not disappoint. there were no cliche "it's all my fault!" moments in this book. the characters don't whine and the sex is.....whew it's hawt in here!
if your not a fan of strong language and rip your clothes off - up against the wall sex then this book is not for you. if you are then grab some whine, a fan lol and snuggle in for a long night because you won't want to turn this off.

Exquisite
Loved it from the first page! Story line is great with complicated characters that keep the storyline moving along swiftly! Lots of twists and turns that accompany interesting plots throughout the book. Can’t wait to hear/read the second book of this series!

Good story but could have been better
I like the story but honestly it had a lot more potential to be better. First, the male narrator was awful. He had a good voice but the way he spoke drove me crazy. He tried way to hard to sound sexy or something? The way he would draw out the words was nasally sounding and just awful. Hard to explain really. The girl was good though. Plus, I wish the romantic scenes would have been built up better and not just thrown right into the sex scenes which were too much in my opinion. There was no build up really to their attraction to each other. Not sure I’ll buy the second book.

That it ended so stupid
How do you end a book like that? I’m all about cliffhangers but this one sucked. Absolutely no resolution and no explanation. I’ll skip the second one and start something new.

Great story, well developed characters- spoilers.
There are times where I was like why doesnt she say something!? Use words! The demon killed my friend! How is that allowed!? How is she not on trial for murder! She didnt say aNything!? She stands around with her mouth hanging open catching flies. Soo frustrating! She's very slow on the uptake and reactive not proactive when fighting. Also, took a long time getting used to this narrators male voices bc she makes them all sound like they are speech impaired simpletons. Overall i listened to the whole thing and was entertained but so many times I wanted to smack the main character for not speaking up for herself, in an intelligent manner.

Good storyline
Enjoyed the storyline. Female narration of main character was very good but horrible with others. The male narrator was very good as well but only heard him 2% of the book. After I invested in listening to the first book, I forced myself to listen to the others. The stories continued to be good and would like to hear more after the baby!

Intriguing story
Witty banter, fun story. As much as the female narrator does amazing for the main female character, I can’t for the life of me why she reads all the other characters all slow and choppy. It’s horrendous! And the male narrator is fantastic! Why didn’t you have him read all the male parts?! He really needs more audio time in the book!

Much potential in the storyline, falls flat and leaves you unsatisfied
So much potential, falls flat and leaves you unsatisfied...
Narration really needs to be much better: Before I bought the audio book I actually read all the 6 reviews that were available. even though most of them said the performance of the narrator was not good, I thought if I put it on 1.25x it should speed up her voice a bit. It helped a bit but not by much. I unfortunately have to agree that the narration is not good, for the female voice a bit better but for the male voice from the female narrator terrible. Overall very mechanical and really much lower quality than Tantor media for example.
Story is very predictable: it is trying to be hunger games but for the love of a prince. However there are so many unlogical turns that you really need to shut your rational brain off and just don’t question the writing to enjoy this.
For example: the heroine gets attacked but does not mention this to anyone; the heroine hates the prince and wants to go back home ASAP, but then she wins the trials in stead of losing them. The heroine hates the prince but suddenly out of the blue with no cause decided she wants him sexually. There is a side character who is underdeveloped as a character: what is his role, is he her brother or in love with her. Just very confusing.
Price is waaay to high: for this bad quality of narration and medium quality of writing paying 12.99$ for an audio book is way too much. Just not worth it. It is free in kindle unlimited but not in audible romance package.
So why would you read it? If you can turn your brain off and not get annoyed by the stupid things the heroine does, not the predictable twists, and just enjoy the storyline you can have an enjoyable read. I would not listen to this again.
Oh an btw: there is a cliffhanger which adds to the annoyance factor.
