Avalon Academy rules: spy on your enemies, resist temptation, and try not to die in the process.

As a bookseller, Nia saved up for years for her dream vacation—drinking champagne on a beach with her favorite books. But her dream turns into a nightmare when she's kidnapped by a muscular, tattooed jerk of a fey named Raphael.

Yes, kidnapped.

It turns out Nia has a magic power, and Raphael demands that she train at Camelot's elite academy for spies. Raphael is hellbent on revenge against an evil Fey king, certain that Nia's powers can help. But Nia is in way over her head—asthmatic and out of shape. She'll be lucky to get out of there alive.

Still, there's no escape when Raphael is watching her every move. He's lethal, dangerous, and hot as hell. When they're sent on a dangerous missions together, he becomes harder to resist. Touching him is playing with fire. Is she ready to get burned?

A fae romantasy for fans of ACOTAR, Fourth wing, and enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance.

Got me out of the TOG slump

This book is definitely worth a read...and I will say no more, definitely got me out of the TOG slump.

I love the characters

what a mild start to a trilogy I like the first book I can't wait to see where it goes from here

Good not great

This book fell somewhere in the middle for me. Didn’t love it but didn’t hate it either. It was just good. I thought there could have been more world building or back-story. It is the first book so maybe we’ll get more depth in the second book. Which I hear is a lot better than the first book.

I didn’t feel that close to the FMC, and there was no tension or yearning for the romance so that also didn’t help. The plot was unique and interesting and liked how they wove in Merlin and the knights of the round table. I will still continue with the series just because I hear the second book is exponentially better than the first one. We shall see!

I Had to Stop Listening

Raphael’s voice was so unbearable that I couldn’t get past it. I had to stop listening and go read the kindle version of this book. I love the story and the characters as a whole. I’m just disappointed in the casting for the MMC. I love Graphic Audio and normally don’t have any complaints, but this was a major bummer since I paid for it.

For Dramatized version poor job done

For Dramatized version poor job done and only the MFC was great the rest mainly MMC voice was not suitable and in terms of story it felt basic fantasy with easy tropes
