About this listen

A Court of Thorns and Roses meets Game of Thrones in the first book in a sensational new romantasy series where a headstrong princess is kidnapped by the alpha of a werewolf clan, leading to all-out war, and forbidden romance...

When a princess is kidnapped by an alpha, war rages between the humans and the wolves. But soon, forbidden attraction starts to grow…

Princess Aurora longs to escape the castle and the marriage that has been arranged for her.

But on the night before her wedding, at a dog fight where captured werewolves are made to fight for sport, she spares the life of a young wolf. It puts her on the radar of the powerful alpha who was going to kill him. And it changes everything.

That night, when the alpha escapes, he kidnaps her and takes her to the rugged lands north of the border—where the once warring werewolf clans are beginning to unite. He thinks that she is the key to winning the war against the humans.

I absolutely adore this series! The audibook is amazing and I couldn’t stop listening once I started! Truly refreshing there is alot of “wolf” books that are really doing the bare minimum but this book has it all, only thing I would change is that Blake gets is own narrator ❤️

Best book of 2025!

Devoured.
Such an easy listen, not too much world building which is perfect for me.

This dual narration was so good. Even the male voices done by the female narrator were great:

Liked the male narration and storey line, it was well done & smooth. The female narration was very high pitched & loud by comparison. Overall still a good listen.

Loved the book and loved the audio book, Shane East and Zara Hampton-Brown are fantastic, I only wished that Blake was also narrated by a male. He deserves it.

Partial duet - but still great

I absolutely loved this story, but the female narrator really took away from the experience for me. Her portrayal of Rory made her sound overly whiny, and certain pronunciations—like "room"—were distracting. I also feel that Blake’s character would have been better served with a male narrator who matched Callum’s excellence. I was so excited to hear this book come to life on Audible, especially after loving the written version, but unfortunately, it didn’t meet my expectations.

Oh Blake!

This book was a breath of fresh air! Was in a slump with same storyline, cliche and cheesy lines. Really enjoyed this one! Narrator's were great too - accents are 🔥
The FMC is begins naive to the world but her character development throughout the book was so good! MMC is just what the Dr ordered, and side characters also brilliant.
A good few twists and turns, can't wait to start book 2.

A refreshing shifter romance

this book was a bit of a slow burn but picked up speed midway and became addictive!

captivating

I found the narration of this book a bit cringeworthy. Too much overacting for the female voice and too flat for the male voice. Also there should have been a male voice for Blake. It just sounded so wrong having a female voice for that character. The story is ok - I did want to love it!

Not a fan of the narration
