About this listen
In the Sundered world, there are two options: Ride the dawn, or face what rises in the night.
Twenty years ago, Lirien’s magic fractured the world and unleashed nocturnal creatures that brought civilization to its knees. Amidst the carnage came salvation: The most powerful survivors were invited to board Dawnrider, a high-speed rig that would deliver those aboard into a new era.
The rest of humanity was left to die.
Instead, a king rose from the darkness to lead them.
In the years since, Lirien has dedicated her magic to Dawnrider while secretly plotting to overthrow the tyrant who rules the rig with an iron fist. But just as Lirien is ready to strike against him, she is violently abducted by Vox—the king of the feralists.
The mercurial Vox gives her two choices: Fight the creatures that hunt the night or be fed to them. Lirien agrees to join his ranks, but embarks on a strategy of seduction that will return her to Dawnrider.
Yet as Vox pushes the limits of her magic, Lirien begins to question whether defying the dusk is the true path to salvation. Intoxicated by both Vox and his war against the night, Lirien must decide where her loyalties truly lie—and how far she’s willing to go for redemption.

Critic reviews
“Buckle up, babes, we’re chasing the dawn! Defy the Dusk has all of my favorite things—found family, wickedly great worldbuilding, and a hero and heroine having a sexy good time (with some murder on the side!). You won’t want to miss it!”—Katee Robert, New York Times bestselling author
“The stakes couldn’t be higher in Defy the Dusk, an action-packed, post-apocalyptic fantasy where the dark is deadly. Sworn enemies Lirien and Vox both want to save humanity—no matter the cost. Trust is in short supply, but romantic tension sizzles between them. Nobody writes enemies to lovers (and back again!) like Danielle L. Jensen.”—Jennifer Estep, New York Times bestselling author of Queen of Foxes
“I didn’t know I needed a Mad Max-inspired fantasy romance until I read this book. Riveting. Fresh. Unique. A stand-out favorite read of the year! Five stars for Defy the Dusk by Danielle L. Jensen!”—Devney Perry, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“In a stunning, fast-paced fantasy, Jensen delivers delicious yearning and characters readers will root for as they race to outrun tragedy and reclaim the night.”—Laura R. Samotin, author of The Sins on Their Bones
