About this listen

 Hanna Harp’s incendiary debut paranormal dark romance, perfect for fans of Sadie Kincaid’s Forged in Blood and Keri Lake’s Anathema, follows Cade, a devoted hunter fighting to shield his sister Callisto from a haunting generational curse, but when a mysterious spirit begins to break down his defenses, both his passion and his will ignite into a scorching, fourth-wall breaking read that places you at the heart of the story.

Warning: This is not just a book. It’s an invitation. A contract sealed the moment you turn the page. If you choose to read, you choose to be seen. If you choose to follow him, he will hunt you. This story does not end when you close the book...

Cade Halloway is a hunter, raised by the Order of the Covenant—a cult built on blood, sacrifice, and power. He tracks and eliminates the powerful and corrupt. A predator disguised as a savior, but he’s not here to save the innocent. He’s here to rip apart the monsters who hide in plain sight. For years, he has been their weapon. Until he discovered the truth...his sister Callisto is slated to be their next offering.

Callisto Halloway was supposed to die for the Order, but her brother has other plans. While in hiding, unable to help or fight, she spends her time trying to control the power she was born with, the power that the Order will kill for. But independence comes at a price, and her uncontrolled power summons a demon far more dangerous than the Order. One that wants more than her body or her soul.

Now, on the run from the Order, Cade’s only purpose is to save his sister. But Callisto’s power has consequences. There’s now an unseen force—a spectral presence—following Cade he can’t explain and can't escape. A presence that breaks down all of his defenses, and tears down walls even he didn’t know he had built, as he finds himself drawn to it in mind, spirit, and body. And it may be the only thing that can save him and Callisto.

You.

So first of all. this was fun. it was dark with a nicely cryptic witchy storyline that sort of got answers and asked more...whixh for book one makes sense

however... the whole breaking the fourth wall aspect was completely oversold. this isn't a love story between me and a main character... if anything Cade is more of a side character with a few chapters and some (decently) hot scenes. they are nicely done but from how this was marketed to how it comes across..well I think chalk meet cheese.

I obviously listened, but have to say I'm not sure it would translate well in the written form, I think it's better as a audio, and let's face it Teddy Hamilton talking to you helps a lot, his voice could melt butter and when he's saying how much he likes things I'm doing...well 🥵

anyway. moving on.

this book is the Callisto and Alabaster story, it's their love story/mystery not mine. it's still a fun read and I enjoyed the suave presence Alabaster has and that Callie isn't a whiny wall flower... and jack..oh poor jack.
I will listen to book two, but I'll go into with open eyes and lower expectations about 'my immersion'.

enjoyable but ...

The idea for this book was so creative and I was really excited about it however...

This book was really not for me. For a first ever book I definitely give kudos. The author had a fun creative idea and gave it a good shot, and I honestly hope she keeps working on her craft.

For me, the pacing was off, it was about 18 chapters before I really had a clear picture about the backstory.
Every male leaned hard into toxic male tropes... all of the tropes so not a single character felt like they had any real redeeming qualities. Maybe Alabaster... maybe.
The female lead is supposed to be oh so powerful but its all fear fear fear, oh look an orgasm, fear fear fear. The damsel in distress was taken too far and she gets treated like a child constantly.
The amount of times I had to put it down because I just could not with these characters.

But just because it's not my cup of tea, doesn't mean others won't love it so don't let me rain on your parade, the author worked hard to bring the community something she obviously loves and was passionate about.

Not my kind of hero

Narrators were all incredible. More on the lighter side of dark romance which was very welcome. Alabaster was soooo funny and sexy as hell. Cliffhanger ending, chef's kiss!

Fantastic binge 👻

This book was a slow burn for me at the start. It took a little while to really grab me, but once I hit the halfway point I genuinely didn’t want to put it down.

I really enjoyed the concept of the reader being the love interest, especially paired with a witch-and-god dynamic where she’s meant to be his sacrifice. That setup had so much potential. The playful banter between Callie and Alabaster was easily one of my favourite parts, and watching them fall for each other was cute, hot, and heavy in all the right ways. I just wanted more of them. It felt like there was more development and tension between Alabaster and Callie than between Cane and the ghost and I found myself wishing that relationship had been explored further.

I would have loved if Teddy and Christian had have narrated all the male voicing all male characters and M.K voicing all female characters throughout as having them voice all the characters in their own chapters lessened the experience.

That said, once the story hit its stride, I was fully invested. The chemistry, the banter, and the overall concept kept me hooked, and I’m definitely looking forward to the next part!

Cute, hot, and heavy… just not enough

Audiobook Review

I thoroughly enjoyed this story, especially Callisto and Alabaster. The premise around Cade's story is what drew me in, but something about the fourth wall break made it hard for me to connect. I think this is purely because I was listening to it as an audiobook so it felt like a roleplay audio which is very popular and could be something you're into, it just made me feel weird.

The overarching plot of the covenant and other things I won't spoil is insane and I am so excited for book two to find out what happens next after that ending.

I giggled and gasped at quite a few things throughout this book. One that really stuck out to me was "your blood tastes almost as sweet as your p***y" 🫣🫣
The banter with Callie and Alabaster really made this book for me, especially Alabastors' voice actor Christian Leatherman.

Alabastor!!!
