About this listen

"A steamy game of cat and mouse between witch and witch-hunter, played out against a backdrop of opulence, secrets, and bloody history. I couldn't look away." - Kendare Blake, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Champion of Fate

Enemies-to-lovers doesn't get more high stakes than a witch and a witch hunter falling in love in bestselling author Kristen Ciccarelli's latest romantic fantasy

On the night Rune’s life changed forever, blood ran in the streets. Now, in the aftermath of a devastating revolution, witches have been diminished from powerful rulers to outcasts ruthlessly hunted due to their waning magic, and Rune must hide what she is.

Spending her days pretending to be nothing more than a vapid young socialite, Rune spends her nights as the Crimson Moth, a witch vigilante who rescues her kind from being purged. When a rescue goes wrong, she decides to throw the witch hunters off her scent and gain the intel she desperately needs by courting the handsome Gideon Sharpe - a notorious and unforgiving witch hunter loyal to the revolution - who she can't help but find herself falling for.

Gideon loathes the decadence and superficiality Rune represents, but when he learns the Crimson Moth has been using Rune’s merchant ships to smuggle renegade witches out of the republic, he inserts himself into her social circles by pretending to court her right back. He soon realizes that beneath her beauty and shallow façade, is someone fiercely intelligent and tender who feels like his perfect match. Except, what if she’s the very villain he’s been hunting?

Kristen Ciccarelli’s Heartless Hunter is the thrilling start to a romantic fantasy duology where the only thing more treacherous than being a witch...is falling in love.

“Enchanting and deeply romantic, Heartless Hunter drew me in with the first sentence and left me breathless by the last. A story that unfolds like a spell, and one that is destined to capture your heart.” - Rebecca Ross, New York Times bestselling author of Divine Rivals

This book has been stealing all the emotions

I absolutely love this book. It’s been a very long time since I’ve listened to a book like this. I cannot wait for the second book to come out.

Excited for the next book!

I thought it was really well done! Both the story & narrating. I don’t remember if I saw that’s it’s YA, but if you also missed that- now you know. Usually not a YA person, but I’m hooked on this one!

2 sides narrator

Great surprise! Witches, enemy to lover, love triangle. I was refreshed that the story was told from both sides at the same time, from Rune and Gideon point of view. I’m guessing that it takes greater effort from the author to keep us from discovering in advance every secrets! Also relieved that Rune wasn’t a childish character! I recommend.

Great Book, Awesome listen!

I was hooked from the very beginning! I wasn’t expecting much as o hadn’t really heard much talk about the book before I decided I wanted to listen. I was pleasantly surprised by this book though. I loved it! I was hooked from begging to end and I loved the voice actress.

Beautiful masterpiece

This story from start to finish was engaging, had great character development and plot. I’m so sad it’s over and can’t wait for the next one. One of my first 5 star reads of 2024! Loved every minute!

So good!

This narrator took the story to another level! I loved the way she did the voices for each of the characters, and gave so much depth and emotion. The story itself is full of tension and angst— agh the angst! The ending might have been a little predictable in some places, but not in all of them, and the roller coaster getting there had me on the edge of my seat. So many twists! This was a 5 star book for me, and on top of that my favourite listen/read of 2024. Cannot wait for the second book to release!

Loved it!!!!

Finished this in 2 days. Could not stop myself 😩 the performance was top tier. I noticed the slight change in accent when the MMC who is from a lower class had inner dialogue and then when he spoke to the FMC it poshed up. It’s so slight and well done. Loved the story, love the pacing can you say cat and mouse? I’m off to buy a physical copy now and shop the author’s other books. 100% recommend all around great audiobook.
