Resumen del Editor

She is his greatest weakness. He is her grimmest threat. They need to break their fate-bond—or die.

Salma is haunted by the truth of who she is and why she was brought to the manor. She must break the tainted bond she shares with its master without him learning the truth...or die. Their kiss can mean nothing to her if she is to survive. Especially when the Shade bite she received is even now tainting her blood, twisting her soul, and turning her into a creature of the night.

Adom’s memory is becoming more and more unreliable, and the voice in his head is becoming harder and harder to resist. His Book of Truth tells him that he must, though, for a sacrifice is required on the full moon, and Salma is key. No matter how much the voice whispers its intent to kiss Salma, kill her, and take control of Adom completely.

Their only hope lies in the stories woven by the man in the tower. But can Salma truly trust the faceless being whom she cannot help but visit every night, lured by his dark song? After all, it is never wise to bargain with the fae. Especially in a realm where every kiss is a betrayal and a fate-bond can drag all the worlds to the Duat.

The continuation of the slow-burn, closed-door fae romance with elements of 1001 Nights, Jane Eyre, and Egyptian mythology. Perfect for fans of Sylvia Mercedes, Tara Grayce, and Emma Ham.

Salma and Adom

This is book two of the series. I recommend reading the books in order. I feel reading them as a stand alone, or out of order, the story will not make sense. This picks up where book 1 left off. There is detailed world building and character development. The story brings you on a rollcoaster of emotions. The narration was well done. I received a free copy of this audiobook from BookSprout and am voluntarily leaving my review.

ok

this story was ok I was on the fence with book one so I decided to listen to this one. I just couldn't get into the story.

Better!

In my review of "Bond of Destruction" by Jess Drew, I found this installment to be a notable improvement compared to the previous books in the series. The narrative clarity was enhanced through the inclusion of three distinct perspectives: the protagonist, the male character, and the servant. This approach, blending different points of view, contributed to a more engaging and comprehensible storyline. Unlike the initial two books, I experienced no confusion while delving into the plot, making it a smoother and more enjoyable read. I'd confidently rate it four stars, as it stood out for its accessibility and narrative coherence. I look forward to continuing the series, especially intrigued by the author's recommendation for the next book. Although it's not available in audio form, I have the physical copy and plan to dive into it soon. Overall, a highly recommended read, especially for those who may have faced challenges with the initial books in the series.

Fantastic World Creation

A great sequel to the first book! I love the layers of this world Jes Drew has created - it will draw you in and leave you wanting more.
