Rowan Greenwood has everything she's supposed to want from life - a good family, a bright future, and a proposal from a handsome and wealthy magic hunter. She knows she should be content with what she has. If only she could banish the idea that there's more to life than marriage and children, or let go of the fascination with magic that she's been forced to suppress since childhood. When Rowan unknowingly saves the life of one of her people's most feared enemies, that simple act of compassion rips her from her sheltered life and throws her into a world of magic that's more beautiful, more seductive, and more dangerous than she ever could have imagined. Rowan might get everything she ever dreamed of - that is, if the one thing she's always wanted doesn't kill her first.

I tried to ignore the negative reviews and bought this book anyway and even if I could get past the bad narrator’s (nothing personal but they just did not hit the nail on the head) voice fry and old English man accent, the book was subpar too. I know it must take lots of courage to do these things and I hate to criticize but the character development was null with sooo many holes in the story. I only finished it because I paid for it.

Great start to a series. Don't understand the negative reviews about the narrators. I hope the rest of the series will soon be available on Audible!!

Very good story, excellent narration

I enjoyed this book from the first word and couldn’t stop listening until the last word. Will there be a book two. The ending seems to set one up. I checked for a book 2? Book 1 was released in 2014. I hope #2 will be available soon.

Wonderfully Magical Story

I found the beginning a little boring. I stopped listening to it after a few chapters. Well, I must have stopped when the story picked up because when I began listening again I truly enjoyed the story. It wasn't one of those stories you just couldn't stop until it was done, but it was still really good.

Give it a try!

I had a hard time turning this one off but it feels unfinished.... What a sweet story of devotion

I really liked this narration

love it

A great fantasy story that is worth going back and listening too over and over. The narration was not my favorite but the more times I’ve listened the more I like the narrators. The vocal fry of the female narrator makes sense once you realize that she’s doing it on purpose to accentuate the constant migraine pain that the female lead is constantly under.
Wish that Audible would add the 2nd & 3rd books in this series! That would be awesome.

A great storyThat I keep going back to listen too

This is a series that I would love to hear more of but it seems that only 1 book has been written so far. Hopefully, this will be rectified soon because the writer left me hanging.

A good vs evil story with depth. It involves evil Sorcerer brothers who want a woman with unknown magic. Her kindness to one of the brothers changed him but they are both hunted by the older evil brother. Of course, there are plenty of trials and much danger while they hide with many other magical creatures.

Hoping to hear the rest of the story.
