About this listen
I hunt demons.
I don’t work for them.
And I promised my mom one thing before she was murdered: Under no circumstances, would I ever go near the high demons.
But I’ll break that promise over and over again if it helps me avenge her death.
When my only lead turns to ash in the middle of demon territory, I’m suddenly a dead witch walking. Violence in Samael’s club is an automatic death sentence… unless he can use you.
And it turns out that the most powerful demon in the country has a use for little ol’ me.
Demons are being slaughtered. His demons. And as a bounty hunter, it’s up to me to find out who would dare hurt his people.
I’ve got two weeks to find the killer, and if I fail, I’m bonded to Samael. Forever.
Samael’s certain that I’ll be his, but I’m not the kinda girl who risks her freedom for a demon.
I’m the kinda girl who won’t let anyone get in the way of her vengeance— not even the Machiavellian control freak who thinks he can run my life.
The problem? I’ve pissed the wrong people off.
Now I’m the one being hunted, and someone’s coming for me with everything they have.
But I’m never more dangerous than when my back is up against the wall.
And I’m ready to come out swinging.

Story
I was kept ignorant and sheltered my whole life. Now that I’m free, I’ll never be coddled again. Even if the smoking hot werewolf king thinks coddling is perfectly acceptable. Because something’s hunting humans in my city. Something that kills like a werewolf, but displays those kills publicly–as if taunting the authorities.

Story
Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae. The humans who manage to keep their power are known as the corrupt. And they are burned. When my forbidden power is discovered, I’m forced to flee my tiny village and the life I adore. To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest moment. Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city, and he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden.

Story
Loren Calla has only ever been ordinary. As a human struggling to survive in a city that caters to the needs of vampires, werewolves, witches, and other supernatural creatures, she always assumed her life would remain simple, predictable, and as safe as her world would allow. Until she barely escapes abduction at the hands of Darkslayers—supernatural bounty hunters that possess the Sight, a magical tracking ability that allows them to see a person's aura—and one of her friends is taken in her place. The abductors are demanding a ransom: Loren's life in exchange for her friend's safe return.

Sold to the mob. Four words I never thought I'd utter. Worse, it was my father who did the unthinkable. When the creditors come to collect, I'm handed over to the most ruthless man in New York City—Luca Valentino. The head of the notorious Kings is as gorgeous as he is lethal. Dark, possessive, and violent. Nothing like the boy I grew up with, my dead brother's best friend.

Story
Six years ago, I awoke in a cage with no knowledge of who I was or where I’d come from. Six years ago, I was spared the flesh markets and instead thrown in with a group of savages, where I learned it was fight or die. Now, eight Orders of Assassins are converging on the only home I’ve ever known. All in hopes of purchasing new blade slaves for their ranks. I’m for sale, yet all I want is a life far from death and ownership. Then I meet them, the Order of Scorpions. Their allure is a threat to the freedom I crave, but I won’t fall victim to their sting, no matter how tempting it might be.

Story
For years, the monsters who killed my family have held me in a cage. Brutalized and half-starved. Only kept alive so they can steal my blood. Until one evening, when three eerily gorgeous men rescue me. They offer a safe haven under their protection with everything I need to heal. I'm not used to this kindness—or the desires their smoldering eyes and strong hands stir in my body and my heart. But these fearsome men aren't really men. Like my former captors, they're fae who can shift into wolves. A curse gripping the faerie realm turns them wild under the full moon.

One heroic act damned me for eternity. With a name like Tor, I should have been a hero, just like my father and twin. Turns out I’m not. Not even close. Instead I’m the very thing we hunted. A depraved monster. I thought there was no escaping the curse. No hope for a future. And then I met my mate in the unlikeliest of places: Blackwood Asylum. A place for criminals. Power-hungry madmen. Supernatural outcasts. And her, the curvaceous writer who sees ghosts.

Great series start!
I was in a book slump before stumbling upon this series. What a great first installment! I listened to the audiobook version, and am mostly satisfied with the performance rendered by narrator Amanda Leigh Cobb. The pace was quite rapid, but I could slow the speed in my audible app, so that helped.
Danika, the main female character, is everything I hope for in a lead lady: Capable, relatable, has a great sense of humor, and gas a strong moral (well, where it counts) conpass. Readers are given a glimpse into her backstory so she has depth and her actions are understandable.
Danika is pursuing answers about, and seeking justice for, her mother's murder. Her personal quest leads her to crossing paths with a high demon: Samael. He's mysterious, dangerous, and (of course!) delicious. The plot incorporates some detective sleuthing for answers, and Danika's forced bonding (as in, minion) to Samael. Her species/racial views are challenged and she's forced to reconsider life perspective.
Setting takes place in a modern world similar to that of the real world, however, portals between realms were forced open leading to development of paranormals and mythical beings entering the world. As a result, society was essentially restructured to incorporate and adapt to include demons, fae, werewolves, etc.
I don't want to say much more in order to avoid spoilers, but will say I dove into and finished book 2 before coming back here to review.

It was an easy listen
I got this on a whim. It was an ok story. However, I’m aware my rating is due to liking my FMC to not forget herself while in the presence of handsome demon/fae/ etc…
