Publisher's summary

The first time I meet the devil, he knows my name.

The second time I meet him, the truth becomes clear: Mark Trevena is to be my husband.

No matter that we don't know each other. No matter that he's older than me; shameless and sinful; the owner of a secret club where the powerful come to play. My father has spoken, and I'll be the devil's bride the minute I graduate from college.

Except my future husband has one condition for this arranged marriage: We have to pretend it’s real.

He’ll teach me, he says. How to pretend to be his in pain and pleasure both. How to pretend to arch and writhe under his touch. But his lessons are teaching me something else entirely...that Mark Trevena wants me in a way that's not pretend at all.

And no matter how I might fight it, the devil will have his due.

Sierra Simone never lets me down!! Omg and the narrator is perfection.

This is the perfect prequel to the series. I’m in love. I’m obsessed with it all.

Absolutely AMAZING prequel novella!!!!

Literally binged this one start to finish on a Saturday morning. Couldn’t even be bothered to pause it for my family 😂 It was just that good. This book sets everything up for book 1 of the Lyonesse Triology. I loved having this glimpse at Isolde’s backstory.

Spice level was perfect for a prequel novella, I usually like my books SPICY 🌶️ but found myself perfectly content with this books 2.5/5 on the spice scale. Probably because you can tell it’s setting up the triology to be closer to 4/5 or 5/5 in terms of spice.

The narrator - Isabelle Ruther - was phenomenal! I usually hate one narrator and almost always skip them for a duel narration but I was surprised by how well Isabelle was able to handle doing both the male and female characters including her father who had a crisp British accent and her uncle who had an Irish one. 5/5 stars for narration for sure!

Overall this is definitely a 5/5 star book. I listen to a TON of audiobooks - we are talking like 5 a week minimum…this is hands down the best one I’ve listened to in months! Bravo Sierra Simone!

Excellent prequel

I actually listened to this after Salt Kiss and I think I actually liked that order better, I liked that Isolde was a mystery when I read Salt Kiss. This really shed a lot of light on her story and that mystery made Salt Kiss better.
Isabelle is a new to me narrator and I really loved her delivery of Isolde.

You Don’t want to miss this Prequel

I read this book first then listen to Salt Kiss….then I went back and listen to Salt in the Wound because I wanted more of Isolde and Mark…this prequel builds up Isolde’s character beautifully as a mentally and physically strong coming of age woman who realizes she is being offered by the church and her father to the devil…Mark Trevena. The narrator was superb in her portrayal and I wanted so much more at the end..It will be a torture to wait for the 2nd book - Honey Cut ….Love this series already and hooked on it…

What can I say, she is the queen

This book gave me everything I wanted and more, smut, plot, spice. I cannot put it down. I had to listen to it, and one sitting.

Sierra Simone at her Best!

Sierra Simone does not miss! This novella is so good and so spicy!! This is the start of the Lyonesse series where we meet Isolde a college student who finds herself being forced into marriage to Mark the owner of Lyonesse, a fancy sex club. We’ve met Mark before in the New Camelot series and I was super happy he got his own series. Isolde wants to be a nun so this marriage is a problem. Sierra Simone is the end all be all queen of smut and she did not disappoint. I love this series and can’t wait for the rest of the books to come out. I highly recommend this series to everyone that loves a great romance. I listened to this on audible and Isabelle Ruther did an amazing job with this performance and can’t wait to hear more from her.

A stunning single POV narration for this prequel novella!!!

All I knew going into to this book was that the whole series was going to be an MMF retelling of Tristan and Isolde but holy crap this novella was beyond anything I thought I was getting into! This is the prequel novella to the Lyonesse Trilogy and I was quickly hooked in once I started and could not look away! Even though my mind is blown with so many questions, I am completely intrigued and also still recovering from that spice! Do not listen to this one while driving! I cannot wait to see what happens next in book 1, Salt Kiss and what Sierra Simone does with this series!

I absolutely LOVED this novella on audio as Isabelle Rather was simply outstanding!!! Not only does her voice fit exactly who you’d imagine for this young virgin woman, but she is just a pro at using emotion in her voice! She performed the heck out of this novella and made me feel everything she went through! I didn’t even miss another POV, because she was that hypnotizing with her voice. Also, can we talk about all of her other voices including her male voice?!? They were just superb and for a second I had to make sure there wasn’t another narrator because she truly sounded like an entirely new person. She was that amazing performing with her voice! I am so glad I grabbed this one on audio and HIGHLY recommend it thanks to Isabelle!
