About this listen

Lara has only one thought when her husband is taken prisoner: I will do whatever it takes to set you free.

A queen now in exile as a traitor, Lara has watched Ithicana be conquered by her own father, helpless to do anything to stop the destruction. But when she learns her husband, Aren, has been captured in battle, Lara knows there is only one reason her father is keeping him alive: as bait for his traitorous daughter.

And it is bait she fully intends to take.

Risking her life to the Tempest Seas, Lara returns to Ithicana with a plan not only to free its king, but for liberating the Bridge Kingdom from her father’s clutches using his own weapons: the sisters whose lives she spared.

But as Lara and her companions formulate a plan to free Aren from her father’s palace, they soon discover that while it is easy to get in, it will be quite another thing to get Aren, and themselves, back out. Not only is the palace inescapable, there are more players in the game than Lara ever realized, enemies and allies switching sides in the fight for crowns, kingdoms, and bridges. But her greatest adversary of all might be the very man she’s trying to free - the husband she betrayed.

With everything she loves in jeopardy, Lara must decide who - and what - she is fighting for: her kingdom, her husband, or for herself.

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!

This book took me on a wild trip from the get go. Lara and Aren have easily become two of my favourite leads. Although this book was full of action, the emotional journey these characters went on was intense.

Maybe not the best idea to listen to this under my hijab at work since I was just bursting into tears randomly...

Political- angst - forbidden love

Loved this book - only thing i didn’t like was the en cause i wanted the story to go on! Want more of lara and aren! They are flawed and their relationship is more realistic than your typical soulmate or imprinted storyline. the inadequate heir is good too but i feel like they could’ve been one book with multiple povs like the heroes of olympus series. Hope the next books are going to bring back loved characters

Loved this series!!!

Although my mind is still reeling from the second book I barely have the words to describe it. The unexpected journey this series took me on...just wow! The writing is incredible, the narration was fantastic. I have to admit normally I require some sort of magic to keep me engaged but this story was magic without the magic. The world created here was mystical in itself, such a masterfully intricate world, with so many details without being overwhelming. Honestly I don't think there is any other book that I've read that has kept me so engaged, never a dull moment, constantly kept me on edge. I loved Lara's premise "The most important quality of all...ruthlessness" sets the tone for her character. Then to watch her grow and be torn down just to find herself all over again was mesmerizing, it was like watching a caterpillar change into a butterfly...but a ruthless one. And also, Aren, to watch him so sure of himself and to be broken in so many ways and find a way to still hold to that truth was refreshing. The exploration of the depths of one's soul was brought out in this story in both mc.

Revenge one of my favourite tellings in a story and this is one the sweetest ways revenge can be told! But its also a story of trust and loyalty and learning what that means for you. Both Lara and Aren being pushed to extreme limits in their own ways and finding out what they would do for that love when it comes to life and death. The last few chapters had me in tears and that ending was the most epic triumph! Gotta say this was quite possibly one of the best stories I've read. I look forward to more from this series for sure!

very fun series

This series is so much fun! I really enjoyed the alternation between Lara's and Aren's point of view, which kept me completely engaged and made for an audiobook marathon weekend. I also really enjoyed the balance between political intrigue and romance, the latter very tactfully done. I love this series and I hope more books are to come.

One comment, I quite prefer ebooks and wish this has been available for purchase at the same time as the audio book.
