The Reaper Rescues the Genie

By: Kristen Painter

Length: 8 hrs and 27 mins

Publisher's Summary

Welcome to Nocturne Falls, the town that celebrates Halloween 365 days a year. The tourists think it's all a show: the vampires, the werewolves, the witches, the occasional gargoyle flying through the sky. But the supernaturals populating the town know better.

Living in Nocturne Falls means being yourself. Fangs, fur, and all. Death is what grim reaper Lucien Dupree knows best. Or rather, he did until his reaping powers became tragically unreliable. Now he’s living in a self-imposed exile to keep humanity safe. Sure, it’s a lonely existence, but it’s the best thing for everyone. Except him.

Retired genie, Imari Zephara, has found her happy place in Nocturne Falls. Well, as happy as she can be considering the alternative returning home would bring her. Then a dark force rears its ugly head and throws her life into turmoil. Suddenly the only way to save herself is to join forces with death, who turns out to be a pretty amazing guy.

But Lucien’s defective powers might not be enough to overcome centuries of jinn tradition, meaning Imari’s life would no longer be her own. All he wants is to give her the chance to choose her own future. Hopefully, one that includes him. What more could a guy a wish for?

Another winner!!!!!!

As always, Kristen Painter brings it. This book is no exception. And as always, B J Harrison brings the characters to life. He is a fantastic narrator. This book is about Lucien, a retired reaper and he meets his love in a Genie. Even though each had their on problems, things have a way of working out.

Loved it!

I really loved it! Kristen painter has a way with good clean supernatural romances! I never tire of listening or reading them

Loved it

I love all the Nocturne Falls books by Kristen Painter. I have not yet listened to the other Nocturne Falls books. But the main ones in the series are fantastic. They always make me smile.
And BJ Harrison is an outstanding narrator. He truly brings the characters to life while listening these books.

Very good!

I really enjoyed this story. I love Nocturne Falls. Kristen Painter paints wonderful images with her words.

Another great!

Another Great installment to this wonderful series. I love all Kristen's paring and can't wait to see what she comes up with next.

A nice return to Nocturne Falls

I am a huge fan of this series. That having been said I loved the story however I felt the ending was either added on or rushed. I can understand why the issues with his daughter needed to be addressed I just think it could have been fleshed out a bit. Over all I loved the book and am looking forward to the next in the series.

I am also very fond of B.J. Harrison's performance. He is a marvelous narrator who obviously loves what he does. I hope they never switch narrators, that would just spoil the entire reading experience.

Loved It! Great Series!

The author and the narrator did a great job on this. I really enjoyed listening to it and I am looking forward to the next book in this great series.

Another great story by Kristen Painter

I adore Kristen Painter and all of the Nocturne Falls books and this one is no exception! I love that these stories build on each other. I love the depth of the characters and they way she develops their backstories. I finished this book in a day and a half because I couldn't stop! BJ Harrison is an excellent narrator and brings each character to life with accents and you never get confused as to who is talking.

Another great story from this universe

These are great stories, set in a quirky universe where vampires, werewolves and genies are normal and live their lives in the town called Nocturn Falls. This time we meet a reaper who has problems, we also meet a genie with problems of their own. This is the story of how they help each other and live happily ever after.
