Publisher's Summary

Shadows always return to the darkness.

A cage.

Owned by a ruthless Assassin Lord, Scarlett Monrhoe and her two sisters have been trained since they were children to torture and take life. They are the most feared trio on the continent, but they are also wild and unpredictable. A tragic night has Scarlett finding herself locked away in a noble's household, trapped and forgotten, until she's ready to fall into line.

A choice.

Until the day she is presented with a job. If she completes the assignment, her payment will be something she has coveted for 10 years. Revenge against the Fae Fire Prince who brutally killed her mother 10 years ago. Is she willing to sacrifice her ideals for retribution?

A mystery.

But when children begin disappearing from her home, all her plans are put on hold as she races to save the most innocent. With the help of old friends, a jilted lover, and a mysterious newcomer who claims the magic of the Fae is possible in the mortal lands, Scarlett delves into the darkest corners of the world. Forgotten secrets will come to light, and she will discover the darkness extends far beyond her own kingdom.

Lady of Darkness is book 1of 5 in the Lady of Darkness series. It is a new adult, dark fantasy romance novel.

Great story annoying narration

Unfortunately as much as I liked the story I found the narration annoying and very breathy , I won’t be buying the second book because of this sadly. I think this one is better off as a read and not audio .

overall ok, but much is needed to improve

overall the book had promise. took a while to get in to the narrators voice., but it was ok once I did.
The story is good, however it was very wordy and so so many miscommunications. although the MC is a highly trained assassin with fae powers she was pretty useless the whole way through. Towards the end of the book i was like get a grip girl how many times do we have to revisit your mental breakdowns. I can't give it five stars just based on the child like mc, and the unnecessary, repeated details and thoughts of the mc. I will listen to the next book and pray that the writer got better.
