About this listen

Maud Demille is a daughter of Innkeepers - a special group who provide "lodging" to other-planetary visitors - so she knows that a simple life isn't in the cards. But even Maud could never have anticipated what Fate would throw at her.

Once a wife to a powerful vampire knight, Maud and her young daughter, Helen, were exiled with him for his treachery to the desolate, savage planet of Karhari. Karhari killed her husband, and Maud - completely abandoned by his family - has spent over a year avenging his debts. Rescued by her sister Dina, she's sworn off all things vampire.

Except...in helping Dina save the world, she met Arland, the Marshal of House Krahr, one of the most powerful vampire houses. One thing led to another and he asked for her hand in marriage. She declined. Arland is not used to hearing the word "no"; and try as she might, Maud can't just walk away from Arland. It doesn't help that being human is a lot harder for Maud than being a vampire.

To sort it all out, she accepts his invitation to visit his home planet. House Krahr is extremely influential and Maud knows that a woman - a human, with a very questionable past - who's turned down a proposal from its most beloved son won't get a warm reception. Maybe she’s not sure about marrying Arland, but House Krahr isn’t going to decide for her. Maud Demille has never run from a fight, and House Krahr will soon discover that there's a lot more to Maud than they’re expecting.

Loved it

I really enjoyed the depth of this female character, the refreshing lack of sexism and the functional relationship. yay. I listened to it twice in a row.

Love this series

I absolutely love the Innkeepers Chronicles series, it has become one of my all time favourites.
The narrator is good and fun but it did take a little getting uses to her accents and voice as the 1st three books were narrated by someone else.

Great. Just great.

Amazing, but then again, all Ilona Andrews books are. I loved the new narrator for Maud's story, at first Arland's accent pulled me out of it, however, that's bound to happen with any male character that you've read before and imagined sounding differently.

One wild ride!

This amazing story keeps you coming back for more! The intensity increases steadily throughout the book. I really hope they make this into an audio drama!
