Magnus is a man of contradictions - a spiritual leader in a warrior's body. To him, laws are for enforcing and visions must be followed - even if that means freeing a beautiful slave and making her his reluctant handmaiden. Betrayed once before, Magnus can barely bring himself to trust another woman. Yet Daenaira's fiery innocence is drawing them both into a reckless inferno of desire. Daenaira grew up hearing tales of a fearsome priest who seemed more myth than reality. But Magnus is very real - every inch of him - and so is the treachery surrounding them. Beneath Sanctuary's calm surface, an enemy is scheming to unleash havoc on the Shadowdwellers, unless Magnus trusts in a union ordained by fate, and sealed by unending bliss.

I'm not a big erotica fan. And I think that is because most writers push the envelope beyond reality to unbelieve ability.

However, the first bathroom scene between Magnus the spiritual leader and Daenaira the handmaiden had me hollering out loud in a crowded area. Embarrassed much!

Daenaira is sexually innocent, but naturally curious, and has no idea the effect she is having on Magnus as she performs her duty of bathing him. I don't want to said too much and give it away, but Jacquelyn's description of the scene was nothing short of masterful.

To add the cherry on top it was delivered by one of the best narrator on Audible - Kristen Potter.

Unfortunately, Jacquelyn didn't take the time to develop the third book Pleasure as well as the first two. Pleasure is like two short stories, rushed, and not up to the standards she set for herself in Ecstasy & Rapture. Which is a shame; because I think I could have followed this series for a long time.

The Shadowdwellers Series by Jacquelyn Frank has everything an avid lover of paranormal romance could ask for.
Ms. Frank paints a vivifying world of magic, wonder, and intrigue.
What can I say, I love these books. I found the stories interesting, the sex scenes hot, and the narrator, Ms. Kirsten Potter, to be a great talent.

I can recommend all three books in this series. I remain hopeful that a fourth book will be coming out in the future.

My Favorite Jacquelyn Frank Series, HANDS DOWN!

Mmmm hmmmm this was one delicious listen! It took a minute for me to get into the first book in this series but what a phenomenal follow up Rapture was. I loved Magnus in book 1, and fell even harder for him in this one. He's a great warrior and man of the cloth that is super sexy! His love interest Daenaira was the kind of strong heroine you immediately love if you're into strong female characters. As always KP doesn't disappoint, giving you great impassioned narration that keeps you hanging on every word. This story has every credit worthy component for me---well developed characters, interesting plot, swoon worthy hot warriors, and erotic romance that will set you on fire! Credit worthy in spades! I've already gotten the third installment and can't wait to get started.

Holy freaking hotness!!!!

Magnus is my dream!! This book is far far better then book one. Both lead characters draw you in but I couldn’t ask for anything more out of a Magnus. Strong, faithful, spiritual, sexy, dominant and submissive. This one hits all the marks!

I wasn’t really sure if I wanted to purchase this book because of Ecstasy, the book before this in the series. It wasn’t that I didn’t like Ecstasy; it just dragged in places and didn’t get really good until half way through the book. But Rapture, ohh Rapture was excellent from the beginning. Daenaira is a strong, loyal, dedicated heroine that fights for everything that is right and just. Magnus is everything that I want my dominant men to be in a romance, strong, passionate, and willing to be vulnerable to their counterparts. The sex scenes in this book are tender and erotic at just the right moments, especially the first time Daenaira and Magnus came together. That scene was almost heartbreakingly beautiful to me. Love Love Loved it!!!!

My girl Kristen, as always did a fantastic job. She is definitely in my top five of favorite narrators.
