About this listen

The year was 1926. Glamour, riches, and greed filled the air, but under the façade of glitter and gold lay truths much darker, more sinister, and entirely less human...

Adeline Colton was cursed. Everyone in Georgia knew the devil walked her farm, and maybe they were right, because each month she had dreams—visions of a dark prince and a shadowed forest, a creature so wrong, temptation lurked beneath her skin. So after escaping to New York City, it’s no surprise that her bad fortune follows.

Only this time, it’s in the form of Jack Warren: millionaire bootlegger, infamous gangster, and criminal who makes Addie his fervent obsession. Jack is everything Addie should avoid, but the more she resists his pull, the deeper she’s drawn into his extravagant world. Lured by a life of freedom and desire, Adeline must make a choice: heed her family’s warnings or follow Jack into the dark.

But when fate binds them together, Jack is revealed to be something else—not man, not beast, not even the devil, but a creature much much worse.

Loved this book so much! Very original storyline and great magic system. Especially loved the treat of song in the audio book

Such a unique story

I've been reading romantasy for a long time, and it's been getting predictable. This story is not, especially once you get to book 2.

Prince of Prohibition starts out a bit like a fever dream. That flow does not continue the whole story, which would be hard to follow, but does add value in showing the shift in perception of Adeline as she starts understanding her reality.

I don't know why more people aren't talking about this series. It's well written and thought out, complex, emotional, and gives a fairly realistic perspective of a sheltered woman having her world turned on its head by magic. It's not an easy read, but it's worth it.

Unique and interesting
