About this listen

Charlotte McConnor has all the luck of the Irish…until she doesn’t. When she agrees to marry Colin, her boyfriend of several months, things go downhill fast. The second the engagement ring slips on her finger, things get strange—and hot. As in, he burns her hometown to the ground every night in a sick game of cat and mouse.

Unbeknownst to Charlotte, she’s just met her sin-eater—the man cursed by her family to carry her sins to Hell and keep her cup of luck overflowing. Now he’s out for revenge unless, of course, they can figure out a way to break the centuries-old curse that has enslaved them both.

This held my attention far more than I thought. After killing Colin over 100 times Charlotte accepts a deal with him. They are both fed up with the situation they are in. So they set about trying to release themselves from the curse they are stuck in. Eventually they succeed however that isn't the end of the issues for the couple.

Fabulous

I loved the twist and turns in the plot, just found the story a little slow . The characters were strong and bold . A few cliffhangers moments should have made the book better

An interesting premise. Charlotte and Colin are trapped in a curse. Every day, Colin, her fiance, destroys her family town, and every night Charlotte kills him and resets the day to happen all over again.

Until, one day, when Charlotte fails to kill Colin, Colin suggests they work together to break the curse instead of repeating the awful day forever.

An enjoyable story with interesting characters. It is Charlotte and Colin's original relationship, their feelings for each other that enables them to consider working together. I liked the history, the unravelling of how the curse came to be.

This is actually quite a short book, only four hours audio, so I wonder if some of my hesitance to rate the book is due to its length, and that some elements felt rushed or convenient and could have been more fleshed out.

I listened to the audio book. I would recommend you speed up the narration, else it seems too slow. Saburn does a good job with the narration, though the story does seem stilted on occasion.

I received a free audio copy and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A solid story with an interesting premise

I received a free copy of the audiobook to review. Once I had an idea of the plot it kept me intrigued to the end. Some interesting ideas were explored and I imagine will be developed more fully as the series continues. For me it was easy to listen to escapism. Well narrated although I preferred to listen to the narration at 1.2 speed.

An intriguing start
