A Forbidden Love Story

De: K.C. McMillian

Narrado por: Dahlia Summers

Vampire Princess Akira Ronin's compassion for all is against her father, King Abel Ronin's ironclad rule.

This year, she must journey to the hybrid kingdom to retrieve five skilled fighters to serve in her kingdom.

The king has a devastating plan in place but will Akira's humanity stand in his way and be the catalyst for an unforeseen revolution?

As the gears of fate turn, she treads on a path of revelations. The hidden secrets of Akira’s past, and newfound powers, thrust her into a whirlwind of uncertainty.

And, in the heart of adversity, she falls for the very creature her father deems an abomination — the prince of the hybrid kingdom.

With the king raging war on the hybrids, a secret society coming to light, and impending conflict, Akira must decide if she will obey her father or follow her heart’s desire.

What path will she choose?

A stand alone novel that's worth your time!

First the performance- great voices to match the characters, appropriate emotion and pace, and nothing to distract from the story.
As for the story this is an age old tale with an interesting spin. I liked that it wasn't "modern day fairy tale " perfect but it wasn't "Game of Thrones" disconcerting. I also liked that it was a stand alone story, no waiting years to find out what's next.
the only thing is that jumping from point of view to point of view was mildly confusing. It required backing up to get back on the right path. Regardless, I listen to this book over and over. it's worth having in one's collection.

Original

The story was original. With Magic, Vampires, Hybrids and other creatures. Multiple POVs that Dhalia Summers voiced and narrated beautifully.
