Publisher's summary

Four blood-sucking princes. A beautiful anarchist. One dangerous mistake.

To the vampires who dominate each quadrant of the Lydian Dynasty, I'm only known as "Blackbird" - a masked vigilante who, at 19, is already public enemy number one.

To what's left of humanity, I've been called a superhero, a title I neither welcome nor deserve. My only objective is to offer the enslaved what was stolen from us.... Freedom.

However, a failed plan lands me in the last place I imagined, at the mercy of all four Dynasty princes - Julian, Levi, Roman, and Silas. They're monsters, each with a heart rumored to be as cold as his icy skin. And what's worse, thanks to the slip-up, my fate is suddenly theirs to decide.

It's up to them whether I'll swing from the gallows, and I've given them every reason to sentence me to such a fate. Yet, I felt something unexplainable when our paths first crossed. Something that gives me hope.

We should be one another's worst nightmare. Only, I'm beginning to wonder if, somehow...these four princes might be my saving grace.

Contains mature themes.

Great start to a very intriguing series

Vampires control the world. Rebels are fighting them to save humans. Can't wait to see how this ends up. Great narration too.

Just listen

I don’t leave reviews often, however I’m trying to do better since I rely heavily on them myself. This series didn’t have many reviews but I decided to give it a try, and I’m glad I did. Great story with a different spin. The narrating isn’t the best, especially the male narration. Seems like he’s better when using a non US accent. Nonetheless, the story kept me from giving up. I’ve finished the whole series, it was worth my time and $.

it's perfect!

All I can wonder is where has this author been my whole life. This perfectly meshes so many of my favorite tropes. While still surprising me and constantly keeping me at my toes. the pacing is beautiful and I can't wait to dive into the next one.

Bad female lead + Bad female narrator = NOT GOOD

Why so bad you ask ......

1.) The female lead was just too weak willed to do the kinds of things her character attempted. She was kind of slow witted and you'd expect someone who did the kind of work she did, to defend herself in some kind of way, but she consistently put herself in the position of "being saved" all time. Yuck.

2.) My goodness, her constantly over dramatic, unnecessary inner mono-logs were just torture. I actually found myself having to fast forward so many parts of her going on and on. It was like she was making drawn out poems of EVERYTHING that happened to her.

3.) The narrator, Sarah Puckett was just tortuous with her breathy, mono-toned , low speech. I can't believe she'd done so many audible's. Those are ones I'll be sure to avoid, and oh man, she has so many chapters with just her, back to back. Its like they knew she was horrible, so they brought in Alex Kydd's name just to offset hers.

4.) Just FYI, I'd say the rating is probably flirty at best, so the material isn't something that can be forgiven because of any juicy romantic situations/ entertaining smut.

5.) Overall, if your looking for a hot, paranormal romance w/ likeable characters, in my opinion, this is not worth continuing, despite the cliffhanger ending.

Should have sampled First

Can't get past the Narrator voices. The guy is awful. Maybe one day I'll get through it but I doubt it.
