About this listen

"A must read for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout." (G.K. Derosa, author of Darkblood Academy)

I meant to capture the prince’s heart...and ended up with a king’s.

My desire to sit upon the Lucin throne led me to revive an ancient, winged monarch; one I deemed a friend until that friend duped and imprisoned me.

Lorcan claims he’s holding me captive for my own safety, but then he also claims I belong to him. Slumbering for five centuries has evidently given the Crow King severe delusions.

We may share an unfortunate mind-link, but we are still masters of our own destiny, and I intend to steer mine away from the Sky Kingdom and its prophecies...away from him.

I quickly find out there is no escaping the possessive male. In all honesty, I’m no longer certain I want to.

Get swept away in the second installment of a slow-burn shifter fantasy series full of heartbreaking deceit, wicked supernaturals, and alpha males.

Contains mature content. Recommended for listeners over 18.

Alright, let me give you the lowdown on the sequel. This time, the focus was on character development, and I have to say, it was a refreshing change. The world-building was still top-notch. I loved the combination of medieval Italian kingdoms and Celtic folklore; it created such a captivating atmosphere. While the plot had less action and felt like a filler, the story arc kept me engaged. Despite Fallon's flaws, I'm eager to continue the series, hoping for a significant transformation in her personality and a more fast-paced plot in the next book. And I have to mention, the romance was swoon-worthy and added a delightful touch to the story!

Good sequel, but looking forward to more

Really enjoyed the story, I think the voices do not match how I imagine the characters would sound. Some words are pronounced oddly but overall quite good

Good storyline
