About this listen

Some debts are not so easily repaid—or forgiven.

Nicolai Attano finally has everything he's ever wanted: control over the Iron Saint Railway, safety for his family, and not a single rival syndicate to stand in his way. Never could he have imagined he'd want anything more than power—not until Camilla Marchese.

Six weeks have passed since the disaster on the train and his wife was kidnapped. To get her back, he'll need help. Nico struggles to work with a city poisoned against him and is instead forced to seek the aid of a disreputable black-market dealer. A simple bargain to ensure her rescue, Nico doesn't think twice. A bargain is struck, and the cost is higher than ever. The collateral? His life.

Meanwhile, Camilla fights to gain control over her newfound powers as the alchemist in charge of her confinement puts her to the test. Forced to free what she's held so close, the only light in this hellish prison is the hope to see her family again, and the husband who stole her heart. Three trials and three chances to find the source of her Chaos and use it to save herself, if it doesn't destroy her first.

Cracks in the city draw lines between loyalties, and time is running out until everything comes crashing down. Return to Lynchaven in this action-packed and swoony conclusion of Nico and Milla's story.

Everything I didn't know I needed

I was definitely surprised by all the twist and turns. Definitely had some unpredictability. The main female character was strong and did not overthink things. The romance turned out to be beautifully written. I love the combination of the Peaky Blinders vibes mixed with magic. Highly recommend to give it a listen, the performance was fantastic.

Great story and performance

There were a few scenes that dragged on and felt whiny but overall intriguing story with good twists. My biggest issue with this book was a section in the middle where there were three sex scenes separated by like one chapter each. It delayed plot advancement and was a little much. Would have been better if they were spread out through the book. Love both the narrators though James’s female voices are not convincing, so the scenes where he read Mila’s lines were a little painful. Overall still very much enjoyed this book and am looking forward to book 3.

Delicious and surprising

Fabulous sequel and gives you almost all the answers you hope for, with leaving room for more in case there is a third book. The narrators are fabulous.
