About this listen
A warrior's honor meets a fae’s secrets.
Vesper lives in the shadows, guarding her secrets with the same care she gives her rare flora magic. In the scented court, where every bloom is power, she plays her part while saving for a future far from her haunted past. But when a threatening message arrives, Vesper realizes she can't run forever. How far will she go to protect herself—and the one creature she holds dear?
Regalis, with his fierce raptor familiar, stands as a pillar of honor among the elite Fahyli soldiers. Yet beneath the warrior’s exterior lies a heart yearning for a true mate. Fate throws them together in a foggy twist of events: a murder, a kidnapping, and a mystery that binds their fates together.
Vesper must decide if she can trust Regalis with the truth she’s buried deep, while Regalis faces the ultimate test—can he forgive the web of lies spun in fear? As past sins collide with present dangers, one question remains: who will make the ultimate sacrifice?
A Star of Darkness is a pulse-pounding romantasy adventure of intrigue and passion, set in the mesmerizing world of the Scented Court series by A.L. Knorr. Dive into this standalone story where love battles against the shadows of the past, and the magic of flora and fauna weaves a fate neither of these star-crossed lovers saw coming. Set in the world of The Scented Court but can be enjoyed as a standalone. Not YA, but suitable for ages 14+.

Determined to discover the owner of a skeletal hand, Raine and her sisters refuse to accept the police chief’s lack of interest in the cold case.

Killian walked into my new voodoo shop late one night with an urgent request—he needed me to heal his friend. Only I know absolutely nothing about voodoo, or healing. I’m just trying to start a new life with what little family I have left after my dream of becoming a star on Broadway went up in flames. Literally. At first glance, he was an average looking guy with a European flair. Nothing outside the ordinary in the city of New Orleans. But despite his nerdy-boy attire, Killian was most definitely all man.

Story
Killian walked into my new voodoo shop late one night with an urgent request—he needed me to heal his friend. Only I know absolutely nothing about voodoo, or healing. I’m just trying to start a new life with what little family I have left after my dream of becoming a star on Broadway went up in flames. Literally. At first glance, he was an average looking guy with a European flair. Nothing outside the ordinary in the city of New Orleans. But despite his nerdy-boy attire, Killian was most definitely all man.

I'd lived my whole life with a terminal illness, knowing I'd never be normal. I existed, taking it one day at a time with my dog as my sole, faithful companion. Then one day, Fate intervened and an encounter with a beautiful man gave me something I'd never had before: Hope. Raphael was kind, sweet, and almost...magical. I'd never believed in magic before I met him, but now, I wasn't so sure.

Being a teenager is bullshit. You'd think being an heir in one of most powerful families in predator society would make it easier, but you'd be dead wrong. From the moment I was old enough, my bloodthirsty parents made sure I understood my job is to smile, nod, and look pretty in public. None of my choices are my own, including my friends, my future, and even my hairstyle. The only sliver of happiness I cling to is my boyfriend, Todd, and attending Apex Academy where I'll be free of the chains holding me down.

Magical book
This book is. Quite a bit different from the other books in the series as it takes place at a little later time. But it has many of the same key characters. It is engaging and a fun read. I read it and then listened to the audio and both were great. But I expected no less from one of my favorite authors. The narrators also did a fabulous job.

great storytelling
I love this world and I'm glad to have a stand alone come along. Vespas story is tragic yet hopeful and filled with love. Happy to see Regallis back as well. This story had me rushing back to it as soon as I had a chance and even shedding some tears.

Amazing Dark Fantasy
This was my first experience with this author's work, and the story was very entertaining. I admired the worldbuilding. My attention was gripped by all the twists and turns. I thought the author created characters who were pleasing and versatile, and I liked how their personalities were slowly revealed by events in the story. I enjoyed the dual narrations by Marina Fess and Eden Gabay, and I thought their performances enhanced the story's entertainment. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.

A Most Excellent Standalone
A.L. Knorr is a fantastic author. I listened to A Star of Darkness. This standalone ran me through a myriad of emotions. Though I know there are world building aspects that I would get if I read the rest of the Scented Court series, I didn't feel like anything was missing. It is a thoroughly enjoyable listen. The narrator's did an amazing job of bringing these characters to life. The rest of The Scented Court series has been bumped to the top of my TBR list.

this book made me cry
I adored this book. I loved being back in this world and this book was SO good. It was very emotional and I was on the edge of my seat quite a bit. Yes, I cried. Yes, it was just after I'd finished my makeup and yes I was getting ready to go out in public and yes my eyes were puffy and red and I had to redo my makeup. I can't get enough of books that make me feel. I loved the characters and their complexity. AL Knorr is such a talented author and I hope to see more stories in this world. The narrator was spectacular and really brought the story to life. Highly recommend you read or listen, AND it's a standalone!

A romantasy with secrets and twists
I enjoyed listening to this romantasy about a flora fae, Vesper, who decided to seek refuge in a far town and live as a calyx after she received a threatening message. Regalis the MMC is a honorable soldier who has fallen for Vesper and sworn to protect the calyx. Will his feelings change once he finds out what Vesper is hiding?
While I did find the twists predictable I did enjoy listening to this cozy murder mystery of a sweet romance. I would have liked more of the plot to be on their romance. The (F) was easy to hear however it was hard to determine the transition from the characters when she was speaking. However when (M) was speaking and then there was duet narration, I enjoyed it more.

Wonderful Standalone to the Scented Court
I want to start by expressing my appreciation for the musical score integrated into the story, as well as the use of dual narration. It truly brought the narrative to life. This story, like many others by this author, captivates the reader and is filled with emotion and intrigue. Morpho is definitely a hero! I enjoyed this standalone book and appreciated the references to familiar characters from other books in the series. I hope to see more stories set in this world in the future.

Loved this one!
This entire series is amazing; and I can confirm that A Star of Darkness is standalone and even if you had not read any books from this series you would fully enjoy this story. I’ve always found this series to be very engaging yet tragic in its own way, which is exactly the kind of despair that I crave, but somehow I always feel very fulfilled after reading and cannot put it down. I’ve read / listened to this entire series 4 times now. I love that the books are so long, I prefer 8+ hour audiobooks that I can get lost in.

FANTASTIC HEARTFELT STORY
FANTASTIC HEARTFELT STORY with characters that can break your heart then make you whole again. A. L. Knorr will tell you a tale worth more than the money you spent on the book with emotion, intrigue, mystery and characters that will remain with you long after that last page is read.
RECOMMENDED. LOVELY NARRATION
