Summary

A treacherous bride. A heartbroken groom. Is their marriage over before it’s begun?

Her deceit discovered, Faraine finds herself trapped in the Shadow Realm at the mercy of her new husband. She’s surrounded by enemies, far from any allies, and her best bet for survival is to convince Vor to send her home. But to do so means to give up on the alliance—which would spell disaster for her people.

With the tremors growing worse and poison spreading through his realm, Vor is more desperate than ever to find a solution. Only it cannot involve his wife. Vor wants nothing to do with the woman he has inadvertently married. At one time, he thought he might love her, but now? How can love flourish where trust is broken? When circumstances require them to spend more time together, however, Vor’s blood is stirred in ways he doesn’t like to acknowledge.

Can two lost hearts find healing and hope in one another? Or is their love already poisoned beyond recovery?

Vow of the Shadow King will sweep you away in a tale of betrayal, heartbreak, and forbidden love. It contains mature content.

tough to review

the male narrator is great but I feel the voice for the king is too old. it's fantastic, very talented just not the right one for the king. the female is good, but the voice for the king is weird. she didn't attempt a male voice but I think I understand why, it sorta ruined it for me.

now the story itself, I listened to the whole thing. very committed and I couldn't exactly guess what was going to happen so that was nice. The cliffhanger socks but I'm looking forward to the next book. I liked the series but I feel it's missing something..

Interesting Fantasy World, slow burn book 2

Puts a great twist into the story line. Very slow burn over multiple books. More action in this one as well.

Drawn out

This story was a bit slow at getting where it was trying to go; nearly lost me. The main female character was weak and bossy; the male was too indecisive. The storyline was interesting and unique. Narrators did a good job.

Slow burn but wow!!

Ok I usually am not to keen on these types of slow burn. But it has all the makings of a 4th and a spin off for Hale. I haven’t read book three yet so let’s see. It’s not boring it’s not angsty. its love and learning to trust. I really can’t wait for the third.

Thriller, risks, romance, mystery, and a little surprise.

Yes yes yes.

Both book one and two. Absolutely perfect. Book 2 had me all in my emotions. I did cry. The narrators are perfect. Such passion and emotion. These books deserve more than 10 stars.

Now i have to wait for book 3 😫😩
As soon as the preorder drops; I’m will break my phone to press order.

I absolutely adore this series. It’s filled with everything I have come to expect from Sylvia’s books.
