Akira is a rare Kitsune Fae who is being hunted for his fur. When he takes refuge at the Black Cat Circus, the last thing he expects to find is a tempting human who makes him feel alive.

Akira has always planned on returning to Faerie, but how can he when there is a magical pull telling him that this is his home? For the first time, Akira is experiencing what it feels like to have a family, feel safe, and fall in love.

For almost a decade, River has been searching for the fae who took his brother. But now that he knows the truth behind Indy's disappearance, River is at a loss for what to do next.

Eager for a fresh start, River joins the magical circus, despite his skeptical feelings about paranormal creatures. When he helps the charming Kitsune find his place in the circus, River discovers there's more to Akira than his flirtatious smiles. There's intense power and passion that River can't help but be drawn to.

Can love be enough to keep two lost souls together, or will each of their pasts pull them apart?

Akira is a grumpy/sunshine, fated mates, paranormal MM romance. It features light tail play and light sensation play. The Black Cat Circus: Pearl of Fate is a multi-author series and season two of the Black Cat Circus World that features found family and a magical cast of characters. Each audiobook can be listened to as a standalone but is better enjoyed as a series.

Such a delightful story. It can be read as a standalone but It made my listening experience better that I listened to other books in de black cat circus series before this book. Especially ringmaster by Kota quinn. In my experience multi author series are a great way to discover new authors you love. Back to this book it is a story about two hurt souls finding a new way of life together. Even if some of the things discussed are on the heavy side Kota Quinn if amazing at keeping it low angst and magical. I loooovveee a good found family story and I feel this book and the others in black cat circus do this trope very well. If you like kitsune, foxes, bi-awakening and magical shenanigans this book is for you. The narration is great!

Such a delight

Absolutely enchanting. I will admit that the first few minutes I wasn't sure of the narrator but he quickly grew on me once I realised how accurate his characterisations are. His voice for both Akira and River is wonderful and very distinctive each time, plus he manages to ensure all the other characters who feature in the story are distinct - especially Uncle Harris - the bad guy of the story if there can be one.

Akira, a rare kitsune shifter and River, a human who has discovered the world of magic and shifters are not a likely pairing but as soon as River spends time with Akira things begin to change. The build up to the real romance is slow, we get to know them as they get to know one another and that is beautiful, fulfilling and also very amusing! The characters feel like real people, magic included, the circus could well be one you've been to and the story, well that is partly very much in the realms of fantasy but then again who hasn't imagine animals, and humans, to be more than they seem?

Find yourself lost in the passions and heartfelt warmth of the Black Cat Circus.
