About this listen

The stakes are higher. The witches are deadlier. And the romance is red-hot. The eagerly anticipated sequel to the New York Times and Indiebound best seller Serpent & Dove is perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and is an instant New York Times best seller!

Lou, Reid, Coco, and Ansel are on the run from coven, kingdom, and church - fugitives with nowhere to hide.

To survive, they need allies. Strong ones. But as Lou becomes increasingly desperate to save those she loves, she turns to a darker side of magic that may cost Reid the one thing he can’t bear to lose. Bound to her always, his vows were clear: where Lou goes, he will go; and where she stays, he will stay.

Until death do they part.

Don't miss Gods & Monsters, the spellbinding conclusion of this epic trilogy, coming July 2021!

Loved this story, very different from the first novel. The plot was fresh and interesting. The characters I grew to love even more. The narration was good but just wasn’t my preferred narrators for the characters. However, it didn’t take away from how good the plot was. Very much enjoyed this book!

This is the second instalment to the Serpent and Dove trilogy and continues where the last book ends. To be honest with you, I not sure whether I enjoyed it as much as I did the first book.

The main charm of the first book... Lou and Reid’s forbidden love... hits a massive roadblock from the get go, and we find our lovebirds at constant strife with each other... and with themselves... and with everyone around them. Emotions within the gang reach an all time high and everyone is all up in their feelings. After a lot of to-and-froing, they eventually decide that the best course of action is to find allies who will side with them against Morgane, so they agree approach Coco’s coven, the Blood Witches and then the Werewolves.

As the stage is being set for their confrontation with Morgane, the gang cross paths with a traveling troupe of performers managed by a very interesting character, Claude Devereux. He, and his travelling troupe bringing along some unique and stirring dynamics to the storyline, which will certainly capture your attention... as well as the unexpected appearance of the three matagots that attach themselves to Lou, adding another layer of interest to the storyline.

The book really picks up towards the 80% mark, where some unexpected life changing events take place, with an enormous twist in the storyline that left me completely numb and stunned 😳. The book ends on a massive cliffhanger that left me begging for more. Bring on book three!!!

Please change the male narrator. I loved the story but I cannot stand the narrator. I had to stop half way through the book because I cannot listen to him anymore. Book 3/5. It was ok. Narrator -10000/5

Worst Narrator I’ve ever experienced

I enjoyed it but not as much as the first book. The whole “we gotta chase and kill Morgan” is getting a little old. It would be nice if the plot progressed further, but other than that, I enjoyed the characters, relationship dynamics and snarky remarks!

Awesome as always!

Absolutely outstanding! I really enjoyed Reid’s raspy voice throughout the book. Can’t wait for the third.

Outstanding

Took me a year to get around to this one. I really enjoyed S&D but just got sidetracked. Once I got into B&H I was a little annoyed with myself for putting it off for so long.
My only two negatives are- Reid’s annoying growly voice the narrator gives him and the fact that if you’re going to have two different narrators perhaps one should let the other know when they decide to give a character a heavy cockney accent so it’s not weird when it disappears during the others pov.
Love Reid and Lou and their extended found family. Ansel is a sweetheart and deserved so much better.
Coco is your ride or die friend. And Beau is such an idiot but I adore him too. Can I just join the group please

I’m a sucker for a red head so here I am again
