Once We Were Starlight

De: Mia Sheridan

Narrado por: Connor Crais, Trina Nishimura

A bed posed on a stage under a dazzling spotlight. An audience of hungry eyes. And him, the other half of my soul, our supple bodies moving as one....

Sundara: the lush and forbidden oasis in the desert where men travel to watch acts of sexual deviancy, and the only existence 17-year-old Karys has ever known. But despite a life where secrets and sin are in high supply, and freedom remains far beyond their reach, Karys and her partner, Zakai, find safety in each other, their passionate love the light that helps them both survive the darkness.

Very suddenly, Karys and Zakai find themselves in the bright and confusing world of New York City, navigating separation, school, and relatives who are all but strangers. If they've been found, why do they still feel so lost? As their new lives threaten to drive them apart, and Zakai spins out of her grasp, Karys must figure out who and what can be trusted in this strange city, seemingly filled with more venom than the desert they once called home.

Heartbreakingly beautiful and emotional

A compelling and heartbreakingly beautiful story. It is powerfully raw and intensely emotional. The main characters share a connection that is unbreakable and undeniable. Their journey is unimaginable and beautifully told. A gripping storyline that left me speechless.

Wow

This story is a Rollercoaster. I finished it so quickly once I started I couldn't put it down. It does have a lot of trauma in it so be careful before you start it. I'm so happy they found peace overall and then love.

Perfect... almost

Great story. 4.5 stars 🌟 🤩 I just thought the prelogue should've been omitted, the story skipped way too many years and the marriage proposal and reconciliation was too soon. But even with this, it was a GREAT story that gave me all the feels❤️

Great!!

Hard to read in parts due to the topic. Mia does such a good job with her characters and identifying not just the relief of their rescue but also the tragic heartache they each went through to heal.

Once We Were Starlight…this story is an amazing journey…it takes you through years of experiences for Karys and Zakai, two lovestruck kids taken prisoner and survived for each other. They deal with painful memories and separation from each other when they are rescued and placed into a world that they do not have any experience with. It is an amazing tale, written in a style that is only Mia Sheridan’s…one that keeps you reading and engaged. I have always enjoyed reading Mia’s books and was so glad to find one that I had missed along the way. Also, the audiobook for this story was so well done and added to the written words on the page…and that is not always the case. “Once we were starlight. But now, now we were a universe.” 5-stars is probably not enough.
