About this book

"It's like you were created solely to be my ruin, my sweet agony...but we both know you were meant for more than that, don't we?"

A god amongst his race, and a tyrant to others, Kaius Voroninov has only one desire in the world:

Mortality.

When whispers in the dark begin to speak of Kaius holding the cursebreaker prisoner in his Obsidian Palace, discontent festers within his once loyal subjects.

Dark forces control his fate, and his mortality is not the only thing Adelasia LeMasters unknowingly hides within her soul.

A thousand years of bloodlust has left him cruel and merciless, but Kaius must face the dreadful reality that vampirism has never been his true curse.

It’s always been her.

It will always be her.

I absolutely LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH!! Ariel is absolutely one of my favorite authors so I knew I had to read this! Okay, picture this- It’s a dark and moonlit night, a few candles glowing giving a slight glow as an elegant ballerina dances for a small crowd in a courtyard of sorts. Pirouette, twist, turn and with a sudden gust of wind the candles are blown out, and a vampire’s glowing red eyes are the only thing the delicate ballerina sees before being whisked away. Imagine like a dark Beauty...

Audio was spot perfect

I will say that the audio was way better than the book for the first time ever I will say that the book did go slow and flat for me but the audio bring it to life so I’m only reading the audio which is a 5/5 and I love the narrators that did their job through this book. Awesome job. I enjoyed it. not saying that the book was bad. It just wasn’t giving more as the audio was. The book was OK. I just wish it was more even though this is part one of the book series. )
