Good, but not my favorite CJ Archer book
I’ve listened to all of CJ Archers audiobooks and this is my least favorite. I felt like the sexual attraction between the two main characters was soo forced. At every turn they were trying to jump one another or touch each other’s most private places in a time when that was not socially acceptable in public. It just felt forced. I wanted more witchcraft, more spying intrigue and more romance, not just sex.

Nice story poorly performed
I liked the story, the characters were lacking a little in depth but overall it was an enjoyable plot.
The narration was awful. The first time I started to listen I only got through 15 minutes and I had to put it down because it was so annoying. I managed to give it another try and the story managed to pull me in enough for me to listen despite the poor narrative. The voices female between characters can be very confusing. The pitch and inflection, even the speed for various events in the story was too monotonous. This narrator could become a good one if they were to breath a little more life into the narration.
The characters were a little predictable but the writer did provide some interesting twists.
As for the supernatural aspect, this is a good story for those who prefer “The Good Witch” level of supernatural.
Nice steamy scenes without launching fully into soft porn.
A Pleasant read/listen overall.

Not worth the time
The adult main characters fumbling with each other like hormone crazed teenagers ineffectively distracted from a weak story line. Struggled to finish the book. I'm normally CJ Archer fan and have devoured her other series but this was just awful.
