About this listen

 When art birthed vicious shadow monsters hungering for those who created it, all forms of creative expression were banned.

But the immortal royals destined to be humanity's salvation have their own monstrous affliction: the need to consume human blood.

Inana's illegal storytelling has turned her fugitive. She has evaded capture so far, continuing to weave tales for the most desperate.

Until a Shadowbane catches one of her performances . . .

Dominic is filled with as much bloodlust as the shadow monsters he hunts, and he needs an artist to summon them. He gives Inana an ultimatum: serve him or he'll claim her bounty.

As their tense alliance leads them into the heart of danger, the greatest risk is the desire growing between them. There's something more sinful than lust at play, and it could bring the world to its knees.©2026 Tessonja Odette (P)2026 Bonnier Books UK Dark Fantasy Fantasy

I can’t fault this. The story is interesting and well paced, definitely not read/listened to many like it. Plenty of great characters and banter— twists and turns to the plot and a steady build up.
A little spice which fed into the story rather than leading it and the narrators were brilliant.
Dual narrated rather than duet, however both narrated all the characters in their pov perfectly.

Loved it!

I BEG YOUR FINEST PARDON?!
I want to start this book all over again because my god was it amazing! It all felt so original and unique, something that is really bloody difficult to find in the romantasy genre these days. I loved everything about this absolute incredible story and now I shall wait impatiently for the next.

Wow

Story telling is good, plot twists are unexpected.
The male character read in the same angry-ish tone a lot of the time, which was a little bit of a shame, but otherwise loved this.

What a fantastic book so good I’m about to reread it having just finished it well not reread it. I’m about to re-listen to it brilliant narrators Samantha Brentmore is one of my favourite and the male narrator pairing is brilliant. I’m just upset the second book hasn’t been written yet but I really cannot wait. It’s going to be brilliant.

Outstanding

I'm totally gobsmacked at the perfection of this audio. It's achingly beautiful. Not one criticism, just jaw-dropping awe.

Oh. My. God.
