About this listen
In the intricate dance of fate, Mina, a diligent high school senior, is abruptly torn from her ordinary life by an underground criminal organization, thrusting her into an unfamiliar and challenging world. Oliver, a man who has recently emerged from the shadows of abandonment, grapples with the harsh reality of Mina's abduction. The unexpected loss of their intense love jeopardizes Oliver's newfound hope for a better life, even as their extraordinary connection ignites amid peril and enigma.
Can Oliver and Mina rewrite destiny's script? Is the radiant beacon of their blossoming connection bright enough to guide them through a world steeped in uncertainty? Or will they forever wander as seekers of the elusive symphony of joy?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 87
My name is Neely, and I'm a telepath-spiker. Not only can I read a person's thoughts, I can also spike deadly power straight into their brain. But don't worry, I have strict rules about that sort of thing. I'm hiding again. This time in a California desert truck-stop town run by Lucas Blacke, a tiger shifter and alpha leader who's as handsome as Lucifer and twice as slippery. I've been running from alphas like him my whole life. They either want to own me or kill me - there is no middle ground.

Rich. Spoiled. Cocky. Playboy. Dylan Masters is the worst. Our only date ended with me doing the walk of shame with his taste still lingering on my tongue. I never expected to see him again . . . nor did I want to. But when he walks into my restaurant the next morning, I have no choice but to serve him lunch with a smile. Turns out, Dylan isn't just a date gone wrong—he's the governor's son. He's as callous as he is gorgeous. A golden boy set up for a charmed life, and I'm nothing more than "the help."

I am fire and death. My very presence brings terror and panic. For most, I am the last thing they will ever see. For there is only one thing I live for-freeing my kin. Every action, every battle brings me a step closer. Nothing distracts me from my purpose. Until she crosses my path.

Great narrators!
The narrators really brought this story to life. I really love that the author was involved. I always feel that brings an huge level of authenticity to the audiobook. The emotional intensity of this book, to me, is much better portrayed in the audiobook. It is also really cool to be able to hear the accents and language that my purely American brain would not have filled in.
My heart is still pounding from the massive cliffhanger, and I keep trying to reach for the book because of the absolute feeling of unresolved tension! That's some good writing, and I sure hope there is a next book because I will be waiting ever so (un)patiently to find out what happens next!
This book is not for the faint of heart. There is a content warning of violence and dark themes, but I think that is a warning intended to avoid spoilers. I've included a more extensive warning, as spoiler-free as possible, below.
It's been a few years (heh) since I was 16. I feel like this book might be a little mature, even for a 16-year-old, but I might be misremembering. It is very violent, includes very mature themes, and is just so intense. The romance scenes get spicier than I'd prefer my teen to read - of course, my kid is six right now, so it's speculative. If it weren't marketed as a YA Thriller, I would be raving. So, I'll start that now.
The storyline was fast-paced and carried me along from start to finish. It was captivating, and I needed to know what was going to happen right up to the end. We get the answers to some questions, but so many are left open. There are twisting roads and paths that lead to so many confusing avenues. This is one of those thrillers that really prove that we don't need supernatural monsters to scare us. Humans are plenty scary enough.
I didn't get to read the first book, but I'll go back to read it. People said this could be read alone, but I felt like I missed a lot.
Who's It For?
This book is classified as a YA Thriller for ages 16 and up. I’m not a parent of a teenager, so I’m not entirely sure how appropriate that age assessment is. I can say it is a very intense book and includes many triggers. I’ve listed as many of them as I can remember, and I feel like I probably missed some. It is not for the faint of heart, and it is by no means a light-hearted, easy read. It has extremely dark themes and topics, and the storyline is not hopeful for the majority of the time so that it could be harmful to some people’s mental health.
Content Warnings: Attempted Sexual Assault, Graphic Violence, Torture (Physical and Psychological), Kidnapping, Brainwashing, Human Trafficking, False Imprisonment, Adult Situations, Adult Language, Child Abuse, Child Abandonment
