Publisher's Summary

Most humans have no idea that a dark and deadly underworld, filled with magic and monsters, exists. They wander through life blissfully ignorant of the supernatural world around them. Nora Jacobs is different. Nora knows exactly what kinds of hellish creatures haunt the streets of Detroit.

Thanks to a unique set of psychic abilities, Nora has managed to steer clear of the underworld most of her life. But all that changes the night the most powerful vampire in the city discovers her gifts and decides to use her as a tool to find one of his missing clan members.

As if that's not bad enough, Nora believes she's cursed. All her life, people, especially men, have been drawn to her - some to the point of obsession and violence. Underworlders, it seems, are not immune to this curse, and now she's caught the attention of some of the most dangerous monsters in the city. Neck deep in an investigation only she can solve, Nora quickly makes as many new allies as she does enemies. Her biggest problem is staying alive long enough to decide which is which.

Contains mature themes.

Funny, witty and sassy - but possibly triggering

So very good. Lots of mature themes, including negative experiences (might trigger some people) when it comes to topics of intimacy. The characters are adorable and charming. Narrator sounds natural, making it very easy to get into the story and to empathize.

Very interesting world

I’m really enjoying the series so far our female protagonist has a horrible background story though, ⚠️ Trigger Warning ⚠️ there’s mention of her past sexual trauma being sexual abused by her foster father at 6 years old! And another assault in a park by multiple men at age 13!
Then a vampire sifts through her memories making her relive everything without her consent (another form of assault)

She believes she’s human yet she has a couple powers that she knows of (when she touches people she can read their minds, she can touch an object and get a vision & she gets a 6th sense when she’s in danger… oh and people easily get infatuated by her) so she doesn’t like to be touched and keeps to herself.

She ends up trying to help the underworld people find multiple missing underworld creatures.

A troll 🧌 ends up taking her in as family and it gives you all the good feelings 🥰

Very cute story

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. Captivating storyline with interesting characters. At first I found the narrator had a whiny voice for the MFC, but I got over that pretty quick, and was very impressed with the different voices to portray characters. There was a bit of redundancy, like yeah we get it, men become obsessive over you, no need to keep reiterating it. I also like some romance/ spice in my books, and this had non of that. Definitely a good YA book.

Light and cute

This is a fun light listen, maybe good for YA listeners for sure, theres no sex and minimal swearing. The story line is interesting and Im curious to see where the the series goes with it.

Listening cause its a free listen, if its good then Ill buy the last one.

Bad narrator

This story has a lot of potential but I can’t get past the extremely irritating narrator. She is very monotone with no real difference between the characters, but the worst part is that she sounds extremely nasally/whiny and it’s driving me crazy. I ended up returning the book and I am going to try reading them instead.

Super cute story

Shockingly good story. Different from your normal supernatural story. I really enjoyed this considering I didn’t want to listen to this. Will be purchasing the other books.
