The Scarlet Thread

The Fated Destruction

De: Derek Murphy

Narrado por: Austenne Grey

My name is Kaidance Monroe, and sometimes when I touch people, I see how they die.

After I saw my little brother's death but failed to stop it, my parents abandoned me to a juvenile detention facility. I don't let people touch me anymore. Not my fingertips, not my skin, not my heart.

Just before I turned 18, I got a visit from a cute guy, who tricked me into giving up my secrets. He said I was special, but he wasn't the only one searching for me. I barely escaped with my life. Now I'm in a mansion, learning how to control my abilities - abilities so powerful, even the gods are jealous. I didn't mean to make anyone fall for me. Certainly not my would-be killer. And I never imagined how far he would fall.

The Scarlet Thread is a dark fantasy romance for fans of Greek mythology and Gothic romance. Fans of Fallen and Percy Jackson will be captivated by this mashup of fallen angels and forgotten gods.

This is Book One in the Fated Destruction series.

This is a "slow burn" dark fantasy romance - relationships are being formed, but won't heat up until book two. You'll have to keep listening to see whether Kaidance ends up with Puriel, the smoldering fallen angel who tried to kill her, or Sitri, her mysterious brooding savior.

Great first in series

This was a great series starter. Really gets you invested in the characters and the story line. the narrator does a great job. will definitely be looking into the rest of this series.

Decent set up

This was a good set up for a bigger story. It wasn’t super engrossing but it was good to set the stage. A lot of wondering who was on what side and good vs bad questions. The romance aspect was very underplayed, hoping for more there in the next book. The narrator was back and forth with tone, seeming to have a more monotonous intonation with male characters, but the female ones were nicely done.

I received this audiobook free in exchange for my fair and honest review.

A fun story that hooked me

I like the take on the old gods and their heirs fighting, the MC isn't op and just fits in to the story. There's a solid story being lined up for a great series and the narrator does an excellent job.

Time!

Awesome story! What would you do if you had ability to see the future! Narrator was great! Can't wait until 2nd story!

Amazing

I absolutely loved this story..it was different in a good way..i highly recommend this book
