The fae realm is notoriously dangerous—whereas most supernaturals don't get thrown into the more dangerous side of fae life until they're twenty-five, thanks to her tyrant father, Farren's been dealing with it since she was fifteen, brutally trained and punished; she knows her way around a blade.

Thanks to an incident that she very nearly didn't survive, reprieve comes in the form of Black Onyx academy, which is used to train warriors and enforcers; it should be the break from her father that she needs.

Of course, life is never that simple—she's put into a fated team that thinks she's nothing more than a spoiled princess who got in using daddy's money. She's underestimated at every turn. Throw in assassination attempts, moody shadow casters, a blast from the past that has surprising connections and confusing feelings for her teammates, and nothing is as it appears. Life's about to get a whole lot more complicated.

Contains mature themes.

I love this book series and have been waiting so long for the audio. But the female and male narration is absolute trash. I won't even buy the rest of the series it's that bad. :(

Horrible Narration

Having read so many of this authors books, ok so I have read all of them more times then I can count, my one thought to you is? Are Farren ans Sage sisters or just relatives.

Slow burn, Paranormal, Reverse Harrem.

I love this series. Very dissapointed with the narration. The lady is ok but the male voice is terrible. I really hope the rest are better.

The story is amazing

I’ve not so patiently waited for this series to come out on Audible but the male narrator is NOT right for these characters. He sounds like those old radio soap operas that find everything just SHOCKING. Please stop him. Female narrator is just fine. She might be better than fine but I really can’t think of anything besides him.

Awesome book. Terrible narration.

Let me start by saying, I always stay for the vibe that Nikita gives. The rating is reflective of the Narration, not the story.

With that said, I had a really hard time listening to this one. The only saving grace was that there are more chapters from the FMCs POV than from the MMCs.

Although our female narrator had some of her own things that threw me out of the story, I am not going to focua on those because it was his narration that really made me want to stop listening. Each chapter from the MMCs POV sounded whiny, these characters are anything but that. Additionally, each sentence sounded like he was asking a question and he sounded older than the actual characters.

Overall these books are a 3.5 for me but the audio, 1.5-2 stars.

Not a Fan of the Narration
