À propos de cet audio
Destined to be together, forbidden to love, two lost souls fight evil in an everyday world that belongs to the night. A dark romantasy by a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author.
My life is a nightmare. I’m tormented by the evils I’ve seen, but still I hunt. Kill.
My only comfort is Aria, my forbidden soulmate, whom I meet each night to fight an unseen war. When that war spills over and endangers her, there is nothing that can stop me from finding my love.
Giving in to our blazing attraction could be the death of us, but with one brush of her hand, I’m willing to break every oath I’ve made.
I’d burn the world to protect her from the evils that hunt us.
Because for one moment of loving Aria? I would gladly give my life.

“Swoony romantasy.”—Booklist
The entire premise of the story was so unique and had so much promise. I loved the idea of people not necessarily being inherently bad, but succumbing to these shadow-like demons whispering the evil thoughts into their minds and encouraging them to pursue heinous acts, while select humans travelled to a different realm in their sleep to fight off as many of the evil shadow-demons as they could. It was interesting and captivating and could be interpreted as a unique spin on mental illness in some senses.
I adored Pax's fierce longing and desire to protect Aria above all else. The angst and undeniable connection between them was palpable. It is common for Amy to write protective MMCs, but what I really liked was that even though Pax was not a fan that he couldn't be the one to vanquish her enemies in the end, he respected her decision and helped Aria execute the plan she put in place even though it put her in danger.
Pax and Aria have had a connection since they were little and while forbidden, they developed feelings for one another they knew they couldn't act on. That said, I would have loved for more on page romance. I gleaned the insight to their connection, but given they were on the run and fighting for their lives during the day, then supposed to be fighting demons in their sleep, there wasn't a ton of room for romance beyond what was implied. Additionally, because there was so much going on and everything was happening so fast, there wasn't a ton of character development.
Overall, I really liked the story and I truly believe it has so much potential as a series, however I would have loved more character development, on page romance and less telling and more showing of some of the things taking place with the other characters. I have some serious suspicions about the rules they are required to follow and am hoping that more comes to light around their validity in future books! That said, I will absolutely continue reading the series and would love if we got more information and backstory on some of the side characters too.
such a fun new venture for amy!
