A Vow in Vengeance

De: Jaclyn Rodriguez

Narrado por: Raquel Beattie, Gregory Salinas

Deadly tarot, wicked schemes, dangerous alliances . . . can you survive the Forge?

Sexy, action-packed, and brimming with magic, A Vow in Vengeance is an unputdownable romantasy debut.

Rune Ryker has nothing left to lose. Everything’s been stolen by the Immortals—her family, her home, her freedom. But she’s done playing by their rules.

Each year, humans are forced to journey into the Immortal Realms, but twenty-year-old Rune orchestrates her own selection, determined to find her family and destroy anyone who stands in her way. Rune is used to doing whatever it takes to survive, and now she must endure the Forge, a cutthroat college for the Immortal druids’ elusive tarot magic. When Rune’s magic reveals itself to be the rarest and most powerful, she must live with its only other wielder—Prince Draven. As arrogant as he is ruthlessly ambitious, he’s the last person she can trust.

Rune’s abilities also draw the eyes of the most dangerous druids in the realms. Some want to use her. More want her dead. Draven offers to train her . . . for a price. As Rune becomes ensnared in Draven’s dangerous games, she learns there are secrets at the heart of the kingdom that some will kill to protect.

And Rune and Draven’s growing attraction may be the spark to ignite a brewing war.

Excellent Voice Performances, Fantastic World Building, Characters Beautifully Written, and Some Genious Twists

Hitting the pause button on this audio book was painful. I wanted to keep listening so badly that I thought about hiding in a dark corner somewhere until I was done. Both of the MC's were masterfully written and beautifully complimented by amazing side characters. The plot and world built was clear and fun. Dialog between characters was exceptional with a very well added bit of mind chatter. I loved this book and am shocked to my core that this book was a debut for this author based on how fantabulous it was.

Narrators did great.

Narrators enhanced the story. The plot was pretty good, but if I hear “hells” one more time…

Great story line.

Great for a first novel. Good story line, kept my interest. Would have liked deeper development of supporting characters to make them more personable and memorable.

Connections and Justice

The story kept me involved. The expression of characters rewarding. I really enjoyed the story, sad I now have to wait for part two.

I liked the story overall but...

The FMC annoyed me. The story had great potential but Golly had to wait till the epilogue to get her to finally decide to try it with him. I actually skipped through some of her parts because it got tedious and repetitive.
