About this listen
Today is the day that will set my life on the path I was born to take. Only, my true destiny is nothing that I could have ever imagined in my wildest dreams.
I’m Delia Adams, daughter of one of the greatest slayers to have ever come out of Mallory Falls. I’ve been beaten down, broken, and told I wasn’t good enough while training to follow in his footsteps, but here I stand, ready to embark on my first mission.
The problem? I’ve been tasked with killing the vampire king of Velum Mortis. Yeah, it kind of feels like I’m being set up to fail, but still, I push on. My only saving grace is that the king was cursed years ago and has been sleeping, ever since. An easy target, so I’m told.
I listened as they told me where to find him, but I already knew. He’d been calling to me for years, only I didn’t know he was the reason I’d gone to that cemetery hidden deep in the woods, time after time.
Now, standing in front of the slumbering king, desperate to prove myself, I prepare to shove my sword right through his heart, ending him, and claiming my first victory. But I can’t help but look at him, taking in the beauty and strength in his features and wonder why I’ve been so drawn to him.
I’m a slayer. He’s a vampire. It’s my duty to kill him. So, then, why is the urge to abandon my mission and kiss him so damn strong?
Scroll up and click the "buy now" button to see if I give in to my urges or stay true to my slayer training, today!
Please note: Beyond the Veil is an adult vampire romance novel that was loosely based on the fairy tale "Sleeping Beauty". It contains mature content, adult language, and violence. Though this is the first book in the Vampires of Velum Mortis series, it can be listened to as a stand-alone.

He captured my wrist, smooth black leather against my skin. The kiss was hungry, and urgent. His hard chest pressed me against the bricks and before I knew it, my hand rising to meet the wall. He had me. Gloved hand pinning my wrists above me. His finger at my temple. And his lips taking...taking...taking. The Hidden, we call them. Four Vampires who run this city west of the river. And my family runs the east.

Never trust a vampire. I might have learned that lesson the hard way. But when I find myself in a vampire-owned bar, I don’t have much of a choice. With vampires still trying to assimilate into mainstream society, I’ve done Lucas King a favor by stopping one of his patrons from draining a human dry in the basement of his bar. A favor he'd prefer to repay in bed than in kind.

My life is a giant crap pile with a cherry thrown on top. I'm an immortal woman cursed to kill people with just a glance. And now I've been kidnapped by three mouthwateringly sexy gargoyles, who I'm pretty sure want me dead. But it gets better...While I'm trying to make the best of being a prisoner, guarded by yummy eye-candy, I'm also being dragged on a dangerous mission...I think I'm not just risking my life this time, I'm risking my heart. And that's one thing that even monsters fear.

I was pleasantly surprised
This is a stand alone series that connects with two others so far released and this started off with a hunter and I absolutely hate hunter style vampire series but this was completely different from the usual types and I started this series so that I could fully understand everything said in the last book about a fairy and a vampire. I also usually hate these types of non continuing standalone books because I prefer a continuation of. a series with a new series containing secondary characters in their own point of view and story but this was nice for now. The narrator was great.

Love the book and narrator has a beautyful voice
I love the book and the narrator is really good with a beautyful voice. I think the book cover is really bad/booring. My new favorite thing is to go chores while listening to books.
