About this listen
Caspien Deveraux was poison.
It took me years to realise that he hadn't been born like that. He'd been cultivated and nurtured by a careful hand and a bitter heart. When I first met him, he was a bud. One primed to bloom beautifully and deadly. One I should have torn out at the root.
I loathed him. I loved him. And until him, I hadn't known just how completely those two things could exist at once.

Perfection!
Reading the paperback gave me a new favourite but listening to this pure magic has become a part of me!
George Naylor brings Jude to life with his amazing narration. This story will for sure be a comfort read/listen now. Youth at its most heartwrenching yet hauntingly beautiful. Just want to start it all over again!

A Masterpiece!
I feel breathless and bereft now that I have finished listening to this exquisite story and narration. I ask myself how Scarlet Drake is able to craft such utter literary perfection? Her skill leaves me completely lost for words. I cannot express how deeply I feel and how much this book means to me because my heart is overflowing. George Naylor’s narration is true perfection. A constellation of stars rating - and a million more. Thank you

Definitely in my top 5 reads of 2024. Brilliant
I’ve been DYING for this audio and it did not disappoint. Scarlett Drake is my number one book hangover/crush-my-soul author. I stared at the wall for a long time after finishing this. George Naylor is a new-to-me narrator and he was also brilliant.
Wow. So, we start with Jude and Cas meeting when they’re 15 at the Devereaux Mansion in Jersey, then follow Jude to Oxford and then end with them in their late 20’s (plus a short post-script 7 years after that). They both go to hell and back for a hard fought HEA. It’s worth hanging in there for. It’s told in first person POV by Jude - he narrates the story from an undetermined point in the future.
Unpopular opinion: I’m totally team Jude+Nathan BUT, as Jude says, “I was Jude and Jude loved Cas” so that was never going to happen.
Definitely in my top 5 reads of 2024. Brilliant work.

This beautiful story starts from past to present & is so perfectly formatted & written it's will definitely live with you rent-free! 🎉👏📖
Jude & Caspien, the way this true hate to love romance is told is absolutely heart-wrenching the way Caspian moulds Jude & Jude unconditional love blooms had all my feels on high alert & I never wanted it to end & I just know I'll find it hard to find a story like it. 🥰😭💖Ready yourselfs you won't come out of it the same.
Thank you, Scarlett Drake 💐

A beautiful Masterpiece!!!
One of the top 5 books I’ve ever read, this magnificently written book had me laughing and crying. A very well done, reimagined interpretation of a beguiling Dickens classic. I really was sad to finish this book but I will read this again, many times. ❤️ 👌🤌
