About this listen

Everyone lies. When working for a sex mage, it's the only way to stay safe.

That's the first thing Jaeda learns when she's named as the Chosen. The mage needs a sacrifice, and she's willing to give it. Maybe too willing. After all, this man is lust incarnate; a woman would have to be insane not to want him, even if he is dangerous.

But desiring someone's body is very different from falling in love. In her line of work, the two must never be confused. She doesn't even know his name! He's simply The Jackal, a terrifyingly powerful sex mage, and she's his altar. Her lust fuels him. He needs it.

And that puts her in control.

Now, she gets to spend her days with a mage who wields sex like a weapon and his assistant who's as irresistible as some long-lost god brought to life. The things they do to her body are amazing, and the rest? These men want to spoil her with the kind of riches she's always dreamed of. t's the best job she can imagine.

Unfortunately, it's never that easy. This is supposed to be about making magic - that's it. Feelings have no place in a mage's temple. Affection is a curse. But when the enemy decides she'll make the perfect weapon to steal the Jackal's power, what's she supposed to do? After all, she's just a stupid girl caught in the middle. Her job is to just lie back and take it.

Except, someone's been lying.

It might even be her.

Power of Lies is intended for a mature audience due to the presence of consensual scenes, group scenes, M/M scenes, and plenty of vulgar language - as well as some potentially triggering violence - since the bad guys don't always play nice. While this is a love story, it may not be right for all listeners.

I did not know what I was getting into when I started this book, but I’m so glad I did. I love the way the story builds. The way the MCs became friends made my heart happy. Definitely can’t wait until the next one.

Fantastic

1.) Book about Magic
2.) The main Mage that you will have in the book is a list Mage, so there is a lot of sex. nothing is off limits
3.) The narrator did a great job.
4.) Story plot is pretty great, get lost a bit in the being with there being a lot of sex and trying to give all the back story.

If you like a mixed bag of smut, and Magic. then this book is for you. If you don't then.. read at your own risk.

Mix bag of SMUT, and Magic. What could be better?

I have read and LOVED every book by Auryn Hadley. However, the narrator seems very monotone in a lot of it and her female voices (other than the main character) are awful. They are all whiney and obnoxious.

Love Auryn Hadley, don’t like the narration

Well developed characters, words & emotions easily envisioned. Erotic scenes woven tastefully throughout. Looking forward to the next book in the series. Well worth the credits!

This is a wonderful series full of action as well as some of the most well developed relationships found in fiction. I truly hope the whole series comes to audible.

Erotic and enthralling

Story is great. The narrator is lacking. It’s not a natural way of speaking and the pauses are distracting.

Story is excellent. Narration is lacking.
