À propos de cet audio
Once, we’d worshipped them as Gods.
For nearly four-hundred years, the Veil has protected us from the Fae of Alfheimr. In their absence, our lives have shifted from decadence and sin to survival and virtue under the guidance of the New Gods. I’ve spent my entire life tending to the gardens next to the boundary between our worlds, drawn to the shimmering magic like a moth to the flame.
Then, we died on their swords.
All of that changes the day the Veil shatters, unleashing the fae upon our world once again. The magic of faerie marks those of us they mean to take, but the Mist Guard protecting Nothrek will kill us all before they let the fae have us. There’s no choice but to flee everything I’ve ever known, not if I want to live to see my twenty-first birthday as a free woman.
Now, they’ll claim what’s theirs.
But before they capture me, Caelum saves me from the Wild Hunt. Fae-marked and on the run, he is able to fight back in ways I only dream of. From tentative alliance to all-consuming passion, our bond strengthens as the fae close in and evil lurks ever nearer. With my life on the line, he is everything I shouldn’t dare to want and a distraction I can’t afford. I can’t seem to stay away, not even with something greater on the line.
My heart.

Recommended to Me
I was hoping for so much more here - the narrator was good and had a fantastic cadence while reading. The story plot line was not great, super sad to use a credit on this.

Condescending love interest
I am disappointed because I liked the beginning of the book a lot. The world building potential was there but the characters were shallow and the dialogue was repetitive. Any growth the protagonist had was offset by the love interest becoming increasingly controlling in what felt at the end like an abusive dynamic. The constant use of her belittling pet name was aggravating and unnecessary. I stuck it out to the end but I don’t feel a pull to move on to book 2

A very meh book
Well this was a book I listened to. The narrator wasn't bad - she does a good job of different character voices. But the story and characters. meh. If you are into books with unpredictable twists and character development this is not the book for you. If you think that Jennifer Armentrout is the best thing since sliced bread then this may be the book for you - annoying characters that do stupid things for no reason and have the personality of a wet sponge.
The second book is even worse and I am close to DNF. There just may be a reason this book is free....

Slow burn romance that keeps you hooked
The author does a great job of revealing the world of the fae to us slowly, through our heroine’s eyes. I am intrigued to see where she takes us next.
If you like romance where there are fated lovers, this one is for you. He wants her, she’s too broken and tired of being battered by life to say yes. She is afraid to give in, but wants to. It seems right, but she just can’t.
Great performance! I am looking forward to the sequel Oct 25th.

Good start but dwindles
It was an action packed start for the first half of the book which captivated my attention. Unfortunately, the story started to dwindle and became repetitive. The protagonist weakened and became whiny. The male lead was controlling in a way that did not feel empowering but rather made the female lead submissive. While the second book might redeem this flaw, I am not motivated to read it.

It’s good but not great it definitely has potential
So this book definitely could use a trigger warning ⚠️ ** the first few chapters is all about the lead character trying to avoid the unwanted sexual advances from an older man of power who has been grooming her since she was 7 years old. She was subjected to physical abuse sexual harassment by him***
I actually almost gave up on the book an hour into it because I just felt so sickened by her experiences with this nobleman.
It’s an interesting world the humans live on the opposite side of a vail that keeps them separated from the fae who they believe are all monsters.
The humans all try to live a very religious lifestyle which they believe keeps the veil up. Her father’s life was taken by the religious leaders as they believed the veil needed blood once a year.
Just as she was to be killed for the veil it fell and the fae could return and people died. She fled with her brother because marks began to show on her skin meaning she was to become a faes mate. The human army was killing any human with that symbol and the fae were taking them if they got ahold of any.
She met someone who she thought was like her well her brother & her were hiding, her brother didn’t trust him so they left and were attacked and her brother died.
So she stayed with the man all the while you have a feeling he is her mate by his obsession with her.
There’s more unwanted sexual advances, fighting, uneasy feelings that she doesn’t know much about him and that something is off.
It kinda felt weird that she was so stupid that she couldn’t put two and two together about him being her mate and him wanting to kill anyone who looked at her.
There’s the big reveal in the end and by the story of who he actually is you can’t help but feel for him.

Had Potential But…
The plot premise of this book was good but the execution didn’t hit. I couldn’t connect with the FMC and the love interest reminded me of an abusive relationship. Also, the pet name “little one” had me cringing. There’s copious amounts of spice I this book but not much plot. Wasn’t my favourite.

Super predictable. 🫤
Reminded me a little too much of Sara J Maas books. Almost like a bunch of authors were given a challenge to write about a poor human who is stolen by a deceitful fae and falls in love, yada yada yada.
All the tells were too obvious in the first 3rd of the book and I found myself rolling my eyes a bit too often.
The story would have been okay if it hadn’t been so predictable. 🫤🤷🏻♀️

Great story! Much better than past reviews
Really enjoyed this story. Not sure why reviews are so harsh.
Non stop action
Great build up, enemies to lovers to .. loved the chemistry and eventual 🌶🌶🌶 spice! hot!
Loved the world built, yes I've read ACATOR and some similarities but who cares and foolish to accept all books written after with these sames tropes wouldn't have some and contradictions.
Also yes may trigger some with sub / dom patriarchy.
take what you want from these books and for the fun, spice, good banter etc. don't get hung up on the rest.
