Grading with a Gargoyle

Slaymore Academy, Book 2

Gargoyles aren’t supposed to have pesky things like emotions. If I don’t get mine under control, I’ll be forced to spend the next hundred years stoned—and not in the way you are thinking!

I’ve spent my life being told I’m a failure, thanks to my inability to become the emotionless, logic-driven gargoyle I’m supposed to be. The fix, according to my parents, is sending me to Slaymore Academy instead of a gargoyle college. That way, I can get my degree without drawing too much attention from the Gargoyle Council until I’ve conquered my emotions and can stand before them as a proper gargoyle. At least, that’s the plan. But things start shaking up—literally, with repeated earthquakes—and my mentor collapses from a mystery illness. I agree to team up with Thane, a sexy hellhound who can feed on my emotions, to get to the bottom of things. It doesn’t take long for me to realize that being around Thane is stirring feelings inside me I’ve never experienced, and it’s unraveling the progress I’ve made over the past three years.

Before coming to Slaymore, I’d never questioned my future. I just accepted that being a proper gargoyle meant protecting my own city, being assigned a partner to reproduce with, and a life spent watching the world pass by on the streets far below my rooftop perch with few interactions outside of my corvid companions. Now I’m wondering if there could be a different life for me—one where I don’t have to give up my emotions, my friends, or the sexy hellhound who claims I belong to him. I’m starting to wonder if my future truly is set in stone… or if I can carve out my own destiny.

Slaymore Academy is a college age series where each book is a standalone that features a different girl struggling to fit in with the rest of her species. Every book in this series ends with a HEA… so no cliffhangers!

Perfect pair

Vela and Thane were perfect for each other! This story has such a unique feel and amazing flow. I love that the relationships never seem forced but it flows naturally. Such a fun read with so much heart and I love that she added a little more at the end after the dust settles. Funny, sweet and full of heart. Narrators are truly magic and make this great book shine!

unpredictable plot

not knowing what was going on with the sick gargoyle in the story. nerve racking for me

Loved this!

The guys voice was ultra smooth and very sexy! This pair was chef’s kiss. Loved the story beginning to the end. I want more from this author, and with the same narrators.

Great addition to the series.

I enjoyed this listen. The narrators did a wonderful job as I've found they do. This certainly was action packed and kept me engaged as a listener. I recommend it to those that enjoy Paranormal comedic Romances.

This was fun ...

I do love an amusing story, and this one features a hellhound with a gorgeous male voice ... this is an easy listen ... with a very satisfying ending.
