Master of Salt & Bones

De: Keri Lake

Narrado por: Stefanie Kay, Ryan West

Meet the Devil of Blackthorne Manor.

When I was a little girl, I dreamed a handsome knight would come and rescue me from my wretched mother. He'd ride up on his white steed and break the curse I've been fated to carry since the day I was born.

Funny how things changed over time, how the fairytale twisted into something far more crooked—and darker—than I ever imagined.

In reality, my knight is scarred and broken, living alone in a castle of bones that overlooks the sea. He isn’t searching for me. He never was.

Lucian Blackthorne is as cursed as I am, and equally shunned by the locals, the fishers of men, who believe him to be the devil in the flesh.

Perhaps he is, with the way his amber eyes draw me in, ignite me like an infernal blaze. And the sins he whispers in my ear are as wickedly intoxicating as the man himself.

Yet, his touch is heaven and his will is my weakness.

He calls us forbidden, an unsalvageable tragedy, with no happy end. Maybe we are. But in this story, he’s the one who needs saving.

Master of Salt & Bones is a dark, modern gothic contemporary standalone romance.

What a marvelous written story!

Loved this story! Perfectly well written!! Being from Massachusetts and raided in the Boston area I loved the back drop of the story.

Fabulous-HIGHLY recommend!

I think I have discovered a new favorite author! Just finished this one directly after Nokticadia ( seriously amazing, a little better than this one even) and plan to immediately choose another one of her books to DL! Good writing style, good dual POV and narration. Some SERIOUSLY sexy melt you panties off sex scenes🥵🫦‼️A few very minor holes or unanswered questions by the end, but nothing that really matters. Unique relatable in-depth characters. Realistic morally grey situations and (possibly best of all) a fmc who wasn’t a painfully stupid little bitch with to much snark and heaps of unnecessary angst. Highly recommend this book. More than worth the credit and sure to be a favorite that you will definitely listen to again and again.

Review

Loved listening to this audio book as much as I did reading it. Keri Lake is absolutely amazing.

Dark and gritty and perfect

Draws you in and keeps you on the edge the whole way through. That's not an easy task for an author to do, but Keri does it masterfully.

Riveting!!

Absolutely loved this! Completely kept my interest from beginning to end, could not put it down!!

Great writing, I am the problem

The author tells an amazing story and I was able to connect with the characters and their struggles with their family members. With that being said, the relationship between the two main characters requires a special kind of understanding that I do not possess. Even though I could not get behind their unusual type of connection it did open my eyes to a perspective I have never had before.

Mysteriously delicious

I loved the back and forth between past and present and the mystery unraveling all the way until the end with a twist.

Good

If you like contemporary dark romance with powerful rich men. This will be you cup o tea.

DNF

I stopped after 6 hours. I don't mind dark. But the constant focus on torture and sadism was horrible.

Engaging

Mysterious tale of complex characters embroiled in impossible circumstances. Expertly narrated by both readers. An overall engaging story with a compelling plot twist at the end.
