About this listen
"A must read for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout." (G.K. Derosa, author of Darkblood Academy)
I meant to capture the prince’s heart...and ended up with a king’s.
My desire to sit upon the Lucin throne led me to revive an ancient, winged monarch; one I deemed a friend until that friend duped and imprisoned me.
Lorcan claims he’s holding me captive for my own safety, but then he also claims I belong to him. Slumbering for five centuries has evidently given the Crow King severe delusions.
We may share an unfortunate mind-link, but we are still masters of our own destiny, and I intend to steer mine away from the Sky Kingdom and its prophecies...away from him.
I quickly find out there is no escaping the possessive male. In all honesty, I’m no longer certain I want to.
Get swept away in the second installment of a slow-burn shifter fantasy series full of heartbreaking deceit, wicked supernaturals, and alpha males.
Contains mature content. Recommended for listeners over 18.

Story review:
It was such a wait for this second book, but it was well worth it! This book gave it all. We got more of the EPIC slow-burn between Lore and Fallon. And wow! Once that flame got . was HOT!! But the journey to get there was torturous!! There were times you wanted to scream at both of them! Some of this was eased but the absolute brilliance of their banter!
We delved deeper into the world of the Crows. Got some more Minimus and serpent action. More of our favourite supporting characters, with some development. A father-daughter reunion. And although we're not a fan, Dante is rising to the challenge of being the villain!!
And of course Olivia doesn't disappoint in her plot twists! She'll have you on the edge of your seat, trying to see what's coming next, being swept up in the storm and finding that you actually knew nothing!!!
Finally, the cliffhanger at the end leaves you clinging on for dear life, waiting for the final installment to answer all those questions and decide once and for all who will take the throne of Luce!!
Love this world and excellent adaptation

Definitely 5 star story with 1 annoyance

I was pleased that book 2 focused more on the details (a slower pace and more character development) to build on book 1.
However, there’s a huge problem here! Fallon is so so frustrating in this book - an annoying immature brat that’s eaten too much candy! It literally ruined the entire story for me, as I was expecting so much from her after book 1. So much of the plot was left stagnant and sour because of her childish attitude.
Nevertheless, the world building continued to be spectacular! The atmosphere, folklore, mythology and magic is absolutely stunning! I will read on (because I loved book 1 so much, find Lore enthralling ) and found the last few chapters thrilling! That ending!!!
Let’s just hope Fallon’s personality improves dramatically!
