About this listen
A princess with an adventurer’s spirit. A pirate with a king’s obligations.
Marina has known for a long time that she doesn’t want the life her parents want for her, but when they announce her betrothal to the steady but dull captain of the guard, she reluctantly accepts her duty.
That is until an enemy siren is captured and presented to her father, and Marina can’t think of anything but amber eyes and wings.
In a twist of fate, Marina finds herself the prisoner of an enemy king in a plot to end a centuries-long war between their peoples that can only end in either death or heartbreak.
Ballad of Sea and Sky is the first book in The Whispering Sea Duet, an enemies to lovers romantasy adventure featuring sirens, selkies, and spicy romance.

Story
Mating is a matter of politics for Night, not the heart. To prevent a forced union that will plunge the Lunar Court into war, he must find and bond his true mate. When he lays eyes on Rain, he knows the shy forest witch is the bond mate he's been searching for. Unprepared for the intensity of his attraction, Night makes an offer that would keep his priorities straight and his court safe: a marriage of convenience. Any eligible woman—mortal and immortal alike—would leap at the chance to become the powerful duke's bride. But Rain isn't interested.

As a child, Selene was left at the foot of the White Tower—given to the sorceresses who train those with magic. Her life has been spent honing her powers. But she can't fully join their ranks until she fulfills a single, impossible task: bring the Demon King, Lust, to his knees. Lust has ruled his kingdom for centuries.

Running to Summerpoint to avoid my failed love life may have seemed drastic, but I'd just inherited a house from a distant relative. The timing was perfect, almost like magic. But the cottage is in need of repairs, the place is in the middle of a forest, and I'm not used to small towns. Then I meet my new contractors. Sexy doesn't begin to describe them. The flirting flows easily, and while they're a well-established couple, it seems they may have room for more. Even better, these guys are quickly getting to be a lot more than just friends.

Perfectly cozy & spicy!
I have to echo the other reviewer on this: Madeleine Eliot writes the best stories! Madeleine Eliot really has the most creative, imaginative mind that can develop the best characters and story lines. I loved reading this book and it came even more closer to life with these actors! The actors who read this book did a fabulous job bringing each character they read for with various range of voices. I loved this story of Marina & Caspian. It definitely left me wanting more at the end of the book. I’m pretty sure there will be more books to continue Marina & Capsian’s story. I can’t wait to read and listen to more of Madeleine Eliot’s books!!!!!!

Perfection
Ok, it’s official, Madeleine Eliot cannot write a bad book! I’m so excited to have another book to devour! Ballad of Sea and Sky did not disappoint. My gosh. First off, Caspian and Marina are amazing. You can tell the time and energy put in to making these characters deep. While listening to the book, I felt like I could anticipate the emotions each character would feel. My favorite element was the enemies to lovers piece. It was absolutely delicious. Just the right amount of tension to keep it super exciting the entire time. I adored the highs and lows in the story and felt attached to the characters. Another one to mark as a favorite and to come back to and read again soon.
