About this listen
USA Today best-selling author Taylor Aston White brings you this newly addictive dark paranormal romance.
He despises her...almost as much as his beast craves her.
Kyra’s seen and survived the worst things imaginable, all because of the magic she was born with. Trapped by her secret, she has no choice but to serve Councilman Gallagher or risk everything she has tried so hard to build. Because despite black magic being banned, her very survival depends on it.
Xander’s hate for black witches was notorious, but nothing frustrated him more than the one witch who brings trouble with a capital T. With dark amber eyes and a controlled strength that fascinated his beast—the monster he’s cursed to share a soul with—Xander will do anything to push her away.
So when he’s forced into protecting her, he must put aside his prejudice and ignore his growing desire that’s an insult to his past.
Because he’s had an entire childhood to remember why you can’t trust black witches.
And he definitely can’t trust Kyra Farzan.
Dark paranormal romance, enemies to lovers, found family, bodyguard, fated mates, who hurt you?
Kiss of Darkness is a deliciously dark paranormal romance containing explicit content, graphic violence, profanity, and topics that may be sensitive to some listeners. Full details can be found listed inside the book. Recommended for 18+.
This novel is written in British English including spelling and grammar.

Story
I’m Amethyst Lily Tatum, and up until this point, I’d managed to maintain a fairly low-key life. I’m what you would call a socially unacceptable hot mess. Instead of partying, I’m skating, flipping ollies over guys who loved to underestimate me. Then I started college, met a wild girl who I would soon call my best-friend, had my first drunk one-night stand, left my phone at his house, and then, when I finally managed to meet my mom’s new boyfriend, I found out that my one-night stand was now my new stepbrother.

What starts as a fantasy soon becomes something inescapable for us both.

How was I supposed to know that the dude was the captain of Bradford Private’s precious football team? I had just witnessed my boyfriend three inches deep inside some random girl. Surely you can't blame a girl for word vomit after such a traumatic experience.

Deceitful. Arrogant. Cold. Those are the three perfect words to sum up my husband to be. After little deliberation, my parents decide Isiah Darcy is the perfect suitor. He’s rich, British, and the perfect ally for the Benedetto family business. I can’t stand him, but they don’t care what I want. He’s stuck up and has little respect for women. Once we’re married, he makes it painfully clear I have no rights. I’m nothing more than a puppet. A way for him to get what he’s always wanted. Revenge on my family for something that happened years ago. My husband wants to tear my family apart.

Moving to a new town to start college, where I can try to be normal. Or at least pretend I am. I’m willing to fake it, because I’m tired of trying to get better. Tired of spilling my guts to doctors and therapists to understand why I’ve heard voices since I was a child.

Sadie Sawyer wants to learn how to blow a guy. She's my sister's best friend. The girl I've known since grade school. The girl I've always considered off-limits. She's the girl that crawled under a table in a bar one night and changed everything between us. Now the brain in my pants is more than willing to step up. The rules are simple. No kissing. No screwing. No falling in love. But the more I let her use my body in the name of experimentation, the more I know being friends isn't enough. Is it too much to want it all with her?

Story
Growing up, I had nothing but my good grades and them: the Vanguard brothers. They are the golden boys of our school, destined to be the alphas of our pack. They’re possessive, scaring away everyone else who might get close to me—until the night of their first shift. I’d been told over and over I could never be their mate, but the boy’s wolves had other ideas…. So, I’m whisked away, told to forget them—and I do, right up until they walk in through my door, telling me all the things I’d secretly dreamed of.

Story
Three months shy of her 18th birthday, Ness is forced to return to Colorado. Even though it's been six years, and the wolves of her all-male pack don't recognize her, she recognizes them. People who shun others because of their gender are hard to forget. Especially Liam Kolane—son of Heath, the crudest and cruelest Alpha to have ruled the Boulder Pack. Liam is as handsome as he is infuriating, as kind as he is punishing, and he makes Ness's traitorous heart race, which isn't good. After all, he's a Kolane.

Interesting story!
I enjoyed this story and the characters in it. I liked the character development throughout the book. The two main characters have an interesting relationship, given their past. I look forward to more books from this author.

3 star listen
I was expecting a little more smut tbh. I enjoyed this but the lead female of the series set before this one comes up often and for someone who hadn’t read that series I found it a little confusing as she isn’t really explained why she’s so important or bad arse. The narration is done well and I did enjoy the voice actors in this.

Quite a story
Quite the story! Very fascinating! I did struggle a hit at the beginning but once I caught on it all went nicely. I loved all the different types of fantasy characters in here. The narration is done by Lilly Drake and DB West. I did like but also did not like DB West performance. At first I loved the voice he was using for the MC (male) but as time went buy at times he was so low that it made understanding difficult. Lilly Drake was wonderful except when she was the Councilman or really any man persona. She used the same voice so at times I was unsure who was speaking and if they were male or female.

Fun Enemies to Lovers
This was a fun enemies to lovers paranormal romance story. The narration was good as well. The story kept me sucked in all the way through as I had to find out what happened to this couple and how they would make it work.

Quite the Story! 💚
This was my first book by Taylor, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Although, at the beginning I struggled because of the point of view the story was written from, but once I caught onto it and the story, I absolutely enjoyed it. Can’t wait to read more from her now! :)

Fantasy
I really enjoyed this with all the fantasy characters in it. I especially enjoyed the relationship between Kyra and Xander and the way it developed. Things were a bit complicated, but you couldn't help and root for them. Loved the dual POV in the book.
I can't wait for the next book in the series. I listened to this on audio and really enjoyed the way the narrators portrayed the characters.

Dark Paranormal Romance
Kiss of Darkness by Taylor Aston White is a dark paranormal romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Lilly Drake and DB West. This is the first book in the Curse of the Guardians series.
This is the first book of Taylor's that I have read, and it won't be my last. I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Kyra and Xander. It was messy but you couldn't help but root for them. I liked that we got both of their points of views throughout the book.
I can't wait for the next book in the series Touch of Blood to be released on audio so I can get Kace and Eva's story.
Lilly and DB did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would recommend this book if you're looking for a paranormal romance, fated mate's romance, enemies-to-lovers romance, or a bodyguard romance.

An intriguing paranormal world
An intriguing paranormal world, it didn't take long for me to be drawn in, wondering how everything would pan out. Zander and Kyra have a rocky start as Zander's hostility tends to coat the air with tension...but something else lies beneath the surface. When the danger stalking Kyra forces her to ask for help, the simmering attraction boils over ... but there are enemies to stop before they can relax into their growing love. Action, danger, and suspense are not lacking in this story. Narrators brought it to life. I will say I had to slow the speed down from my normal listening rate due to the accents just because I wasn't used to them.

Perfect Addition to her books!
I’m not the biggest audio book girl. But I loved the books and needed to have a voice to the words! I loved the story! (Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope) but I also love Taylor’s writing. I feel like both narrators did a wonderful job portraying the different characters. I LOVED the way they added more depth for the beast voice! Overall great! Cannot wait for the next one!!
