About this listen

Go deeper with the Ravenhood Legacy in this second installment of the sizzling, darkly seductive, internationally bestselling series spin-off. Here, at last and in his own words, is Tyler's story, never before published.

Once upon a time...

There lived an ambitious boy determined to become a man before his time. And a woman and battered soldier who recognized the scars that marred his soul—scars that mirrored her own.

Determined to help shape the warrior within him, it was their inexplicable bond that would forever alter his heart. And the loss of that love that would redefine his destiny.

After all, nothing has ever been fair in love and war.

Narrated in duet style.

I loved everything about this book. Delphine you brave woman. Tyler wow you are really the heart of the club and the whole series. I just wish we could get a Shawn book. Can’t wait for part 2 of Tyler’s story.

What a story

In truth, I was hoping for a Sean book but as the Ravenhood Series is my Roman Empire I bought this without hesitation.

Tyler (and Delphine’s) stories did not disappoint.

This book is beautiful in a way that is unlike the others but absolutely complimentary. Kate also has a way of choosing voices that fit these characters perfectly (and this decision can make or break a book for me). I went into this one with no expectations and was pleasantly surprised and overjoyed with how many little unresolved pieces of puzzles from the first few books - I’d almost forgotten about - that were cleverly put back together.

While this is set in a Ravenhood world of adventure and action I finished it feeling like I’d also experienced an epic love story (love of a couple, love of a broken family) and this aspect will be what I remember best about this book long after I’ve put it down. Bravo Kate, bravo!

So many questions answered. Heartbreakingly good.

I was looking forward to this so much and I absolutely loved Tyler‘s and Delphine‘s story and I think the narrators did a fantastic job, however I would have loved the original voices. Kate did not disappoint with this book and I can’t wait for the next one.

You know what's coming but it still shatters you anyway 😭 my brain hasn't worked out that this is a book and not real life. Well done Kate Stewart, you've done it again.

I thought Kate was coming for my heart again… but with this book? She came for my soul too. 😮‍💨
The sheer genius of this story—how every thread, even the tiniest ones from other characters’ stories, wove together with Tyler and Delphine’s—left my jaw on the floor, tears streaming, mind blown.
This is hands down the best storytelling I’ve read all year.

Delphine has always been a bit of a mystery since the Ravenhood series… and wow. Her story is a tragedy in every sense—beautiful, brutal, unforgettable.

Highly, highly recommend the audiobook. The emotion, the accents, the language—it hits completely differently when you hear it.
