Story
Perched between branches and shadows, we watch, we scheme, fighting for a kingdom forgotten and forlorn. Until we rip her away with our claws, our prisoner, our pawn, our plaything. She’s innocent and pure, fragile and helpless…but oh so guilty by blood. She calls us beasts, wicked and evil, vicious and cruel. We are all that and worse. One of us offers her shelter beneath his wings, whispering promises of pleasure, seeking redemption. The other longs to shatter her into a million pieces, whispering promises of pain, seeking revenge.

Story
He’s one of my father’s guards at the castle. Goes by the name Mastodon. There’s something about him I don’t like. He takes me into a cavern, and we descend deep underground - to the Bottom of the Cliffs. When I leave for the Capital, Mastodon escorts me. And just as I feared, he kills my guards and captures me. Then he tells me why he’s doing this. Because my family took everything from him - and now he’s about to do the same.

Story
There are three rules to surviving the Fae—and I'm about to break every single one. Rule #1. Never cross into Faerie. When I'm chased across the wicked border and caught by its reclusive ruler of the sky, the pretty trickster with a clever tongue offers me a deal. Rule #2: Never bargain with a Fae. But I don't have a choice. For thirteen days, I have to survive in his mountainous maze of sinister paths, deceptive stairways, and devious creatures. Refuse, and my sisters will suffer as punishment. Rule #3: Never fall for the enemy. I should have known my sexy captor wouldn't play fair.

This must be a mistake. There's no way the Goddess chose me to be a demon's bride. I barely have any magick, and certainly not enough to repair the bargain between witches and demons that's kept both our realms stable for centuries. But Eren is… nothing like I expected. Something about him calls to me. Tempts me. And he looks at me like no one else ever has—like I'm strong and worthy. Like he wants to keep me, cherish me… and sink those wicked, wicked fangs of his into me.

They say eyes are the windows to the soul—but when he looks at me through hues of slate-green and flaring blue embers, I'm terrified of what's watching me from behind his clashing gaze, something primal and feverish that threatens to melt me like fire in ice. I fear falling into Kallum Locke's pitch-black soul. But after I'm called to a crime scene to investigate the most gruesome act of violence to descend on the legendary town of Hollow's Row, I have no choice but to turn to Kallum, to the man I had locked away in an asylum for the criminally insane.

Prince Norivun’s massive black wings and potent magic cloud my senses and steal my breath. He’s beautiful yet brutal, so when he whisks me away and locks me in his castle I’m certain my death is tomorrow’s promise.

Then again, the gifted counsel never did have much to say that wasn't. The only members amongst them who speak a thing worth listening to are my parents, the king and queen of the Stygians, the people of Dark magic. Unfortunately for me and my brothers, they've chosen to play nice instead of sinking their talons into anyone who dares demand a thing from their heirs. In this instance at least.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Everything- Each chapter and character

Publisher's summary
A sickness has claimed the kingdoms of men. Everyone is either sick or dying, weak to a curse that has no cure—except for me. I’m immune to this mysterious illness, and I do my best to heal the sick and ease the pain of the dying. I was supposed to marry the Prince of Raventower, but after his father and elder brother succumbed to the sickness, he’s now king—and can only marry someone of his station.
Kingsnake, King of Vampires and Lord of Darkness, marches upon our gates and demands a handful of our healthiest citizens. The vampires have always stuck to their lands, but their lack of food has made them desperate. King Elias not only succumbs to his demands—he offers me on the condition that Kingsnake never return. The man I loved betrayed me—and will feed me to a monster.
Prisoner to the vampire king, I witness his cruelty and malice first-hand. I knew I would hate him, but I didn’t know how much I would hate him. The feeling is mutual, because I can feel the emotions of those around me, and his emotions burn with rage anytime he’s in my presence. But the second he tastes my blood, everything changes.
His anger is replaced by an intensity I’ve never felt in my life. It’s so powerful it smothers me until I can’t breathe. His stare is like wildfire, so searing hot it makes my skin melt. I know he wants me—and he wants me more than anyone else ever has. Even the man I loved never wanted me like this… I would never sleep with a vampire…but Kingsnake is no ordinary vampire.

The greatest mistake Ember made was to step foot in my school. The instant the rumors started, I marked her as mine. It's only natural I became curious about the new girl. She took someone's position in this academy. Someone important to me. And now, she has to pay. The only way for her to survive is to find out the dirty little secrets I keep to myself. I watch the pleasure spark in her eyes as she searches. The desire to participate in my particular...tastes. If she's not careful, I might capitalize on that curiosity, and I'll squeeze her heart until it bleeds.

Never enter the Waywoods on a hunting day. 3. Never give the High Fae princes a reason to notice you. But even when I followed all the rules, the royal fae still took my family from me. So in one night I broke all three rules, and brought the kingdom to their knees.

I'll never forget the sight of my little sister's lifeless body—or that my rogue magic killed her. Sorcery like mine is punishable by death. So I live in the shadows, stealing from the corrupt to give to the needy. Maybe a little good can wash the blood from my hands. It seems like a decent plan... until I try to help a dying noblewoman and somehow steal her soul instead. Now her ghost is demanding I take up the quest that got her killed: exposing a conspiracy at the royal college to unleash a deadly power on the entire kingdom.

Good start to a new series
I did not read anything - reviews or even the plot summary before starting this book so boy was I in for a surprise. The storyline of this book is about a world where there are many different creatures other than humans in this world vampires, orcs, elves). In the vampire world, there are different factions of vampires- and they all seem to have taken names from the snake kingdom (i.e. Kingsnake, Cobra, etc). Anyway, the Vampires definitely need human blood to survive and some kingdoms of the vampires take them forcefully (they are referred to as prey) and others have humans that willingly volunteer to donate blood for various reasons.
In this world, one particular territory - Grayson, the realm of Kingsnake- all of a sudden has had a plague hit the humans and they are dying off extremely rapidly. If the humans get sick and a Vampire feeds on a sick human, that impacts the Vampire as well. There is one human woman who seems to be immune from the plague and her name is Larissa.
The King of the Grayson territory goes to this human realm and demands 8 humans as feeders - with Larissa being one of them and so it begins.
Larissa's blood is not only powerful, but it gives the King strength and power that he has not has in many centuries. And soon, everyone wants her. Some to kill her, others to have her.
Larissa starts of hating the Vampires, but eventually begins to understand them and especially begins to have a relationship with the King. So - that is where things get interesting.
This world is unique and interesting. There are many, many things that we are just discovering along with Larissa. The longer we stay in this land and the more characters we meet, the more we realize that there is a heck of a lot going on between the various factions. There are the Originals, the Elves (who have portrayed themselves as gods to the humans for centuries), the different factions of Vampires and werewolves...to name a few.
So- things are getting interesting.....

The passion of their voices!!
I already fell in love with this story when I read it. I have been waiting for this audio as I do the rest of the series.
When I read I feel all the passion of the characters but to hear two of my favorite narraters bring it alive gives the story even more depth than just a read.Brava Penelope for creating this amazing story and having Michael and Ramona narrate

Vampire enemies to lovers story
Really Great book. I love the storyline of enemies to lovers with a 1500 year old vampire, and a human with special powers who hate each other, but fall in love anyways. However, way too much explicit in detail sex chapters.

uhmmm
SPOILER FREE: I was really confused by the use of language in this book. In the beginning, the FMC has a conversation that has a very 18-19th century prose to it, but then a few chapters later they're using current slang for things? There were also a few misuses of words, like the author tried to use a bigger word but didn't really know what it meant (or maybe used the wrong word?). This is definitely a sub/dom-'pleasure in the pain' type of dynamic and not really written in a way where you can overcome any discomfort if it's triggering to you at all. During a lot of the 🌶️ scenes, I kept wondering "was this written by a man or a woman"?? Not that women can't have these sorts of thoughts during 🌶️ time, but this was written in a way that I don't think any of us can really relate to (very p*rn inspired). If I had a penny for every time they said big d*ck in this book....
As for the plot.. it's all very clear which way things are going to go and you as the reader are clued into everything before the characters are, so you're sort of just waiting for the characters to catch up to you. Which personally, is not my cup of tea in this genre. The FMC also describes seeing certain things throughout the book and at first, I thought what she was seeing was actually going on, but you figure out about 30% through the book that it's actually just in her head. This did not come off to me as a literary tactic, more just that the author didn't explain a very basic concept of the magic in the world before just writing out the scenes. Part of why I feel this way is because there are other disjointed scenes throughout the book that make you wonder "were there just pages skipped or was that just a really abrupt cut scene?" The magic system and world building are very subpar and there's still a lot about those two things that are left unexplained, while we got an almost obnoxious amount of 🌶️ scenes instead. The best part of the book for me was honestly Fang. He's a true homie and his relationship with the FMC is the only thing that kept me reading.
