ONE TOUCH CAN SAVE YOU FROM CERTAIN DEATH...OR SENTENCE YOU TO AN ETERNITY IN HELL.

Born with the ability to defy death, Annora has been warned to keep her gift secret, but her greedy uncle can't resist exploiting her by any means necessary. Starvation, beatings, broken bones - she's survived them all and emerged stronger. But it's not enough for him. It will never be enough. When she discovers her uncle plans to sell her to the highest bidder, she risks everything to escape the prison that has become her life.

The last thing she expected was to land at a university for supernaturals...or be paired with a pack of men as broken as her. As students go missing, Annora can't get over the suspicion that she's being hunted. To protect her, the guys must set aside their personal troubles and begin working as a team. But as her past collides with her present, she must make the ultimate sacrifice and expose her secrets to save the guys who've become more than family to her...and hope she's strong enough to live with the consequences.

Contains mature themes.

Amazing

This is a great paranormal RH. It’s full of action and lust. It’s a slow burn but the writing sucks you in. I’m ready for the 2nd book to be released on audio!

Omg 😍

I love this book from the the writer and the narrator this is a book you have to listen to

Only flaw is there there isn’t a 2nd book 😭

Worth the Time

I enjoyed the storyline and characters although it could have benefitted from additional character development throughout. They needed fleshed out a bit better especially Anora at the very beginning. It did catch the attention and keep you involved with the unusual creatures and decent plot.

The narrator wasn't too bad as long as you are ok tracking characters since she only did one single voicetype for the males.

Interesting Story

The book was interesting in regards to the phantom realm that was created. The end of the story was a little predictable which I guess was necessary to setup book 2. Our heroine was a little to flip flopping for my taste. Unfortunately the narrator male voices sounded exactly the same so I had replay scenes to catch the names so I could tell which character was speaking.

Good start to a new paranormal series

I think the MC, Anora’s species/class and her list of skills are interesting and I can’t wait to see how she evolves. The rest of the characters are interesting but lacking something essential because I felt a bit disconnected at times. Overall, the concept is good but need development.

awesome

the voice is perfect and the story is amazing I can't wait to get to the end and see what happens.

This is a good start

I was withholding a review until at least having had a chance to listen again and hear part 2. Please make it available on audible. What I enjoyed most was the character learning to lean on someone besides self but not losing her strength. I just dont get why one part of a series is put out there but never continued.

worth the listen

I wasn't expecting much since the story was going along like so many these days. but this ended up being good. and it was diffrent. the only problem i had was u are thrust into this alternate universe without any explanation of the characters.

Addictive & Promising

I fell in love with Stacey Brutger’s work through her Academy if Assassins series. Overlooking an initially rushed storyline, this series promises to be just as addictive as her other work.

The storyline is a bit rushed and slightly hard to follow in the first few chapters. This is due to a flood of information put forth to set up the dynamics of the story’s universe. After that, the story pushes along at a good pace and pulls you in as the characters develop.

The narration is good, giving inflections to set the tone of the storyline, despite their masculine voices sounding identical.

Overall, this was a very good read. I can’t wait for the next book to come out!

Enjoyed immensely

I absolutely loved this book, and I can't wait for the next one in the series yesterday wouldn't even be soon enough.

The narrator was amazing and made the book stand out even more with her series of voices.

I am salivating in wait for the next book.
