Publisher's Summary

I always imagined Death's final kiss would be cold. It wasn't. 

Four years later, I can still remember the exact shade of his skin: a blue so pale it looked like moonlight. I dream of his touch. Mostly, I paint the man under the heavy cowl, including those perfect lips which ruined mine for anyone else. 

I'm obsessed with him. 

The doctors say he's nothing more than a hallucination caused by a mixture of head trauma and emergency pain medications. I think he's a really sexy figment of my imagination. I mean, who besides an artist would dream up the Grim Reaper for their hero? 

Now, something's changed and my drawings are taking on a life of their own. As if college wasn't hard enough, trying to keep this a secret is going to be impossible. Keeping my sanity might be worse. And that's not the worst of my problems.  

Death is back.
He wants another kiss.
And he's not alone. 

The Kiss of Death is a 156,000 word, full-length novel with no cliff-hanger ending. This series includes multiple love interests, some M/M themes, and graphic scenes of sex, violence, and language. 

Be warned: Everything you thought you knew about the world, religion, and death will be pulled apart, twisted around, and put back together in ways you will not expect.

So damn good, and fun!!

So damn good. I tried NOT to ‘just one more chapter’ my way through but I failed and devoured it in every moment of fee air time. This happens with every. single. one. of Autumn Hadley’s books they rock my damn world so much. I find a whole lotta love, respect and kindness between her characters…and integrity. I'm a fan of the deliciously varied ways Auryn depicts interactions between multiple partners and I see the open, honest, kind and respectful relationships as examples of how the things can be between people and as important contributions to the co-creation of sex positive culture/s. When I need to escape or bring a lil extra warmth and good feels for the heart into my life, I know I can go back to any of her books.

Apart from the characters, I frickin love the ways that Auryn seems to always create worlds in which the conventional gets flipped inside out, crushed up, mixed up, turned around and shaken up like a cocktail created by a master mixologist and served up by the hottest most seductive bartender, aaaand a bunch of their best friends on the side. I have to give her mad props for jamming with string theory and crafting such a fun, funny and clever multiverse in this series.

And christina Cato as narrator - perfection. She did such an excellent job reading the characters from The Dark Orchid that I almost didn't want to listen to her voice attached to new characters but, I was all in within minutes. She's definitely the most impressive narrator I've come across when it comes to doing not just male and female voices hella well, but having such a range of accents/variations to access.

Now that I’ve listened to this book 1 in 48 hours, I’m going to struggle not to put my life on hold whilst I devour the rest.

this narration is ON POINT!

While this story is phenomenal, the narration is absolutely perfect. I am in love with the narrators voice. Her acting skills are next level, and the writing is absolutely to die for. well done!
