About this listen

When the Quint Confederacy and the Kos Empire went to war - again - Queen Samara wisely kept her Rogue Coalition out of the conflict. But staying neutral in a galactic war doesn't pay the bills, not when both sides refuse to trade with neutral sectors.

With her people on the brink of starvation, Samara hatches a daring plan to snatch the kidnapped Kos Emperor from the Quint mercenaries holding him. The Kos Empire will pay a fortune for their emperor's return, enough to feed the Coalition's citizens while they wait for the return to a begrudging peace.

But when her plan goes sideways, Samara finds herself evading Quint mercenaries with the very man she intends to capture. And the more time she spends with Valentin Kos, the more she realizes that he's not the coldly indifferent villain she imagined. Torn between duty and desire, Samara must decide if saving her people is worth giving up the one thing she's always wanted.

love the story!

Anything by Jessie is incredible. The plot, world, characters and romance are perfection. The narrator was great too. My only complaint is that the male main character was a little bit breathier sounding than I pictured in my head when reading. By the second book the characters voice becomes stronger, so it's fine.

probably the worst voice acting I've ever heard

Oh my goodness. The voice acting performance was so distracting from the story. I couldn't tell if she sounded more like an AI from 7 years ago or someone reading off of a broken teleprompter. The cadence at which she delivered the book was so incredibly choppy and just wrong.

I love this author so I would highly recommend reading/listening to any of her other book series because they are fabulous and this particular one is a miss for me.
