Publisher's summary

Desire is his downfall.

Rejected by his ruthless family and the god he betrayed them for, Leth is desperate for a chance to prove himself. A purpose for his sword and magic. Anything beyond the legacy of restraint and repression that's broken him down again and again.

But his new quest comes with an infuriatingly familiar companion.

Evain draws power from human desire. Every heated glance or tender touch feeds the flames of his magic. He has little patience for a frigid sword-witch who hates anything demonic-but somehow, traveling with pretty Leth makes him feel stronger than ever. On the rare occasion Leth deigns to look at him.

Wild magic and winter nights throw them together, and cracks start forming in their first impressions. Leth wants more than a purpose from Evain, and Evain wants more than heated glances from Leth. But Evain's hiding a secret that could shatter their fragile trust: he isn't human.

And Leth can't afford weakness when his family's out for blood.

Contains mature themes.

Great continuation for 2 fun characters

This was a fun ride. Great ending to the trilogy. A bit campy with the ending, but whatever, I'm here for a fun, easy listen not anything deep or life altering. The narrator was fine. Slipped a few times with mouth saliva sounds, when taking a breath that were distracting, but overall it was fine. The story was good and the characters were fun. I'd recommend the trilogy for when you want a pallet cleaner between more emotionally taxing books.

Heading stated optional

love the story, however if you notes for the narrator take sips of breath not inhales. it might help with the gas as I use headphones for my audible you can hear it. Only a suggestion as I recently started meditation and I know it's an issue for me.

enjoyed it

📖 Story comment: Good pace, likeable characters, interesting story.
Tavia Lark is a new author for me. I went into this series based on nothing more than the cover of Book 1 piqued my interest, I didn't read the book summary, didn't read any reviews - went in completely blind and overall I'm pleased with the chance I took.

These books have all followed a similar formula, which is just purely entertainment and worked for me. I enjoyed the characters and direction the overarching story took, I especially liked the "cameo" appearances of previous characters. This series likes secrets and Evain's is a doozy!. The story had a nice flow and a good pace, it's what I call an "easy listen" - something that can be listened to while doing something else without losing track of what's going on.

🎧 Narrator comment: I enjoyed Kai Rubio's performance, and with more experience under his belt he'll become a narrator i'll watch out for. He has good timing and inflections, captures the essence of the characters and has done a good job bringing the story to life. I did nudge the speed up a fraction (1.05x), but that was more for my personal preference and not anything against the narration.

Entertaining!

I really liked this pair! Their growing closeness didn’t feel forced and I liked the action and danger.

The narrator improved over the series and I enjoyed listening to him!

another lovely bit of interesting fluff

I've enjoyed this charming series that gives just enough character and plot to outweigh the silly sex scenes. using the same formula as the other books in the series, there's no. mystery about who's falling for whom but there is enough story to keep me reading and enjoying. not nobel prize material but more like petting your cat and listening to her purr.
