About this listen

He'll do anything to stop her... and she'll do anything to survive.

Titus is just trying to control his new power without losing himself to the darkness. Already cursed, and now suffering with noxious black magic, he believes his luck couldn't get any worse.

Until an assassin appears, ready to end his life. He never expected such an infuriating woman, and now he's not sure what to do. Kill her before she can kill him, or give in to the intense desire that proves bad luck comes in threes.

Rae is prepared for a typical hit. But when she can't seem to eliminate her target, she quickly realises that it wasn't only Titus who has a price on his head.

Forced to work together, or risk both their lives, Titus and Rae must unravel the mystery of who hired the hits, all while fighting against a dangerous attraction that's a frustration to them both.

Can they trust each other to survive long enough to discover who wants them dead?

Or will they end up killing each other instead?

Heart of Crimson

Well I love me a badass assassin, Especially when the assassin is a female. but this book here had me hooked from beginning to end. kinda funny how they both kept fighting there attraction for each other. and how they kept fighting their blonde as mate. but to be honest they both made a good pair. in the end I'm glad they finally gave in. such a good book.

Ok!

3.5* for the narrators and story

Rae and Titus
I thought the story was ok! It's a bit slow in the begining. The narrators did a good job the only thing I didn't enjoy is when Rae's character spoke I found it to be low and a little hard to hear.

book 4 - Curse of the Guardians

This is book 4 in White's Curse of the Guardians and White does a wonderful job of transporting us into this dark and twisted paranormal world. Our main characters are Guardian Titus who is dealing with trying to control his darkness and Rae who's a hired assassin with Titus as her mark. Rae makes several attempts (somehow all being unsuccessful) and after so many twists she and Titus find themselves working together to find who's behind the hit (s)?!? Torn between fulfilling her job and the chemistry between them Rae succumbs to Titus' dominance. The storyline has one twist after another that will have you gasping and glued to your reader. The dual narration of Drake and West bring our characters to life. A little overlap with the dual points of view but I thought it was reasonable. I also think this could be a standalone while some characters from previous books in the series are present there really isn't much spoiler to be had. Overall, I loved the dual narration and the suspenseful twists. I also loved that while Titus' character is super domineering, Rae is strong in her own right. Looking forward to what's next!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.

This paranormal world is so intriguing to me

This paranormal world is so intriguing to me. Each book has a different spin with the storyline and mate to the Guardian of the book. With Titus and Rae, it's so up in the air what's going to happen with so many new developments and twists and turns. There's action, danger, and suspense as they journey towards their HEA. Narrators bring the characters to life with great accents.

Captivating Series!

This is the fourth book in the Curse of the Guardians series, a Dark Paranormal Romance. Titus and Rae's story is entertaining. They are both strong and interesting characters. I liked the action, the suspense, the slow burn, and the twists and turns. This is a great enemies-to-lovers romance. Lilly Drake and DB West did a good job bringing this story to life. I enjoyed it. #PFPAudio

Titus and His Rae of Sunshine!!

4.5 Stars

The story did start a little slow for my liking, but it eventually picked up and became something wonderful! Titus is struggling with the events from the last book and Rae doesn't let if off easy because she's an assassin (or contractor, whatever you'd prefer) and she tries to kill him.
Rae and Titus's story was wonderful! It started as enemies-to-lovers with some slightly murderous tendencies. I loved how even though Rae is human, she was never weak or one to sit on the sidelines. She was a strong character, even when her family was completely undeserving of her affection. She rolls with the punches and throws quite a few of them, too. Titus has gone through some things from the previous book and he was working through the changes and Rae was there to keep him in line and call him out on his behavior.
It's a great story with tons of twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat! It's written in 3rd person POV with dual narration with British spellings because it takes place in the UK and was written by a British person.

CW: Violence, murder, torture, demonic possession, the steam is BDSM-type (including aftercare!! The aftercare isn't a CW, it's just something that it's usually included in books and I was excited it was included!)

I will reiterate: Lucy needs his own story! He is a gem!!

This book has a self contained story, however it is necessary to read the others to understand the overarching storyline in the series. It is also a part of the same world that the Alice Skye series is set in. And I wholeheartedly recommend reading that series.

I liked the narrators. They has always done a good job with the characters from this series!! I listened at 1.2x speed.

Another Fantastic Curse of the Guardians Story

This series and held me enthralled with each and every book. Titus and Rae are our couple who beginning their relationship in such a way you can’t help but wonder how it will resolve.
The author spins and twists the storyline keeping the reader/listener trapped in their world and pulling for a positive ending.
The narration is incredibly well done and adds to the excitement and suspense.
Do yourself a favor and try this series. If you love paranormal, romance, action and excitement this series is worth a try.

Wonderful!

What a wonderful story! I loved getting to know Rae and Titus. They have quite a story! It is full of action and suspense. These two have a great chemistry! Bantering between them is off the charts! I enjoyed their humor and actions. I really never knew what was going to happen.

I listened to this on audio. Lily Drake and DB West did the narration. I enjoyed them both but did struggle a bit with Mr West’s low gravelly voice took a bit to get used to and understand. After a while I just got used to it.

Curse of the Guardians, Book 4

Another fantastic book to the series. This book centers around Titus, who was severely injured in the previous book, and Rae, who has been ordered to kill Titus. Of course, they are mates. I like the dynamics between these two characters. Rae is a very strong heroine who has to make some difficult decisions in the book. Again, characters from previous books are included,which I personally like in a series. This is the last of this series on audiobook. However, there is another book that has been released of which I hope they record as well. I do recommend listening to the Alice Skye series before this series if possible, for complete immersion into this world. The narrators are fantastic for this series thus far.

I requested and received a free audio copy via the publisher, and I voluntarily wrote this honest review. #TheFlockVIPReviewTeam #PinkFlamingoProductions #PFPAudio
