Publisher's Summary

"A must read for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout." (G.K. Derosa, author of Darkblood Academy)

I meant to capture the prince’s heart...and ended up with a king’s.

My desire to sit upon the Lucin throne led me to revive an ancient, winged monarch; one I deemed a friend until that friend duped and imprisoned me.

Lorcan claims he’s holding me captive for my own safety, but then he also claims I belong to him. Slumbering for five centuries has evidently given the Crow King severe delusions.

We may share an unfortunate mind-link, but we are still masters of our own destiny, and I intend to steer mine away from the Sky Kingdom and its prophecies...away from him.

I quickly find out there is no escaping the possessive male. In all honesty, I’m no longer certain I want to.

Get swept away in the second installment of a slow-burn shifter fantasy series full of heartbreaking deceit, wicked supernaturals, and alpha males.

Contains mature content. Recommended for listeners over 18.

Love love love this 2nd book

Beautifully narrated. The story kept me wanting more. Blood, romance, danger, sex, magic, intrigue, what more could any listener want?!

where's book 3

Enjoyed both 1st and 2nd book. But frustrated that book 3 not available and that book 4 due next year.
Note to self, before starting a series check all books available.
If your find course language and explicit sex scenes hard to listen to, probably not for you.

Absolutely loved this!

I absolutely loved this second book! I could not stop listening to it. I loved how the story line evolved and the characters developed! I found myself laughing and enjoying the main characters inner monologue so much more. Can’t wait for the next book.

Not the sequel I expected

So much potential with this world and story but unfortunately it was overshadowed by the incessant whining of the MC for the entire book. If you are looking for a story with a strong badass female lead then this is not it.

The ending was interesting but I am not sure I’ll continue the series unless there is more focus on some of the other characters.
