Story
Two years ago, Louise le Blanc fled her coven and took shelter in the city of Cesarine, forsaking all magic and living off whatever she could steal. There, witches like Lou are hunted. They are feared. And they are burned. As a huntsman of the Church, Reid Diggory has lived his life by one principle: Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. But when Lou pulls a wicked stunt, the two are forced into an impossible situation - marriage. Lou, unable to ignore her growing feelings, yet powerless to change what she is, must make a choice. And love makes fools of us all.

Story
Princess Annika has lived a life of comfort—but no amount of luxuries can change the fact that her life isn’t her own to control. The king, once her loving father, has gone cold, and Annika will soon be forced into a loveless marriage for political gain. Miles away, small comforts are few and far between for Lennox. He has devoted his life to the Dahrainian army, hoping to one day help them reclaim the throne that was stolen from them. For Lennox, the idea of love is merely a distraction—nothing will stand in the way of fighting for his people.

Solid Romance
Juicy teen romance, nothing overly sexual. Such drama and believable actions by Lady America. Didn't love the voice acting. Kind of Hunger Games meets romance genre. Leads well into another book, not a solid ending on its own.

Dry Perforance
The book itself is fantastic. However, the narrator is not (in my opinion) portraying the emotions of the characters properly.

This is by far my favourite audio book series - I think I may have listened to this series about 15 times over, and I still love it. If you're a bachelor fan, you'll love this!

Like The Bachelor for royalty
The Reader sounds like a computer, so the narration is a little flat. I enjoyed the story, it’s a good romantic storyline.
