Fated to Darkness, Book 2

De: Jen L. Grey

Narrado por: Willa Jaymes, Walker Williams

He claimed her, not for love, but for vengeance.
Yet his enemies had other plans.

After Tavish, the ruthless Unseelie King, stole Lira and brought her to his kingdom, he fully intended to drain her royal Seelie blood to free his people and reclaim his rightful lands.

When Lira teetered on the edge of death, something inside him snapped and altered his plans.

Once he succumbed to their fated mate bond, her death was no longer an option, and he stopped fighting the inevitable pull, knowing this very decision could incite his people to rebel against him.

Though he’s determined to find another way to free his people while keeping Lira at his side, the Seelie attack, taking Lira from him.

She’s returned to Seelie land where her parents intend to hand her over to the dragon prince—the man they betrothed her to years ago.

Everything stacks against them being together, but Tavish refuses to accept defeat.

Lira is his… and no one else's. And he’ll kill anyone who gets in his way.

The Court of Thorns and Wings is a slow-burn, royal fae romantasy that includes betrayal, morally gray characters, enemies-to-lovers, villain gets the girl, political intrigue, who did this to you, and touch her and unalive. One-click this story today.

DNF

Boring story line weak lead characters. It’s the second book but felt like you didn’t even advance in the story. The fated mates bond making everything into something sexual between the characters was cringy

It feels unproblematic

I like this series because I’m not left being pissed of about love triangle, non-communication, and betrayal tropes. It’s easy to follow, you don’t have to pay much attention and it’s a quick listen. It’s not revolutionary, but it’s fun.

Still binge worthy

Not a fan of the VCard trope but with these two it works. Love her found family and struggle for finding where she fits between being raised in a human world / belonging in a fae world as a princess. Also can get behind a morally grey mmc.

WOW! Captivating narration! 🤯😍

“I’m drenched in blood and in your bed.” He should have put me on the floor. It would’ve been easier to clean. -Lira

I love Lira so much and I love how real and relatable she can be. The amount of times I chucked, gasped, or laughed out loud in this book.. I didn't want it to end. The banter and the slow burn was excellent. I tried to resist finishing the entire book in a day, allowing myself to listen to it for only 3 hours per day. So I could savour it a tiny bit longer.

The narrators are excellent. Willa and Walker did such a terrific job. I could probably listen to Walker Williams narrating any book, and be comptent. He really brought out the male characters so well. Especially Tavish and Finnian.

I hate this ending!

Why don’t they tell you that you’re not going to get the last book and get an ending to the story? I wouldn’t invest 20+ hrs and not get the last book, I would pass on to others! Not happy!

Entertaining

Story itself is a 3, generic romantasy tropes and writing could be better but it was still entertaining and the duet narrating was great. Read this at 1.5x in a day.

Wow such a fun book to listen to!

The cliff hangers are no joke and I wish they are not so dramatic. Also thebpot is nonstop action and I felted there was not enough times for the characters to have nice enjoyable scenes to deepen there relationships other than spice. the spice was good and not over the top. the plot was also very exciting and fast paced. So you won't get bored. Over all if was a fun ride. the Narrators are amazing and the narration is in the new style of all male voices are played by the male narrator and all female are played by the Female narrator and this happens even in same the same paragraph like in conversations. Which makes the narration more organic and enjoyable. So I definitely think it is a good listen.

SO GOOD!!!!!!!

I am Loving this series & the readers are making this SO FUN to listen to!! The story is has been FUN as well & Exciting!

Exciting story

I loved the story, but the FMC was so infuriating constantly putting everyone else in danger.

So boring!

I wanted to love it but it’s so hard to connect with the characters. DNF @90% because I just couldn’t make myself keep reading.
