STAR RATINGS GUIDE

Romantasy audio at its bloody best

THE BIRDICT

🧡 A fierce, funny female lead with dialogue as sharp as fangs makes this my favourite book this year. Misery, for that is her name, is an utter delight. But there’s more.

💚 This star-crossed (moon-crossed?) lovers story between a vampire and werewolf has no cliches and no stupid misunderstandings shoehorned in to make the plot move. Instead, it builds tension at a steady pace.

SQUAWKING THE TALK

🎧 Therese Plummer is simply made for the role of Misery. She has the wit and dry delivery, but also delivers emotions aplenty. Loved her in The City Series by Sarah Lyons Fleming and loved her just as much here.

🎧 The “audio” aspect of this audiobook was taken very seriously, as evidenced by the adding of a male narrator for the interstitial segments voicing the role of Lo.

Bride

THE BLURB

Misery Lark, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest, is an outcast - again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold an historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, and sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchange - again . . .

Weres are ruthless and unpredictable, and their Alpha, Lowe Moreland, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority, but not without justice. And, unlike the Vampyre Council, not without feeling. It's clear from the way he tracks Misery's every movement that he doesn't trust her. If only he knew how right he was . . .

Because Misery has her own reasons to agree to this marriage of convenience, reasons that have nothing to do with politics or alliances, and everything to do with the only thing she's ever cared about. And she is willing to do whatever it takes to get back what's hers, even if it means a life alone in Were territory . . . alone with the wolf.
