About this listen

“All you see is that I run. Why haven’t you realized I always come back?”

She is lightning and storm. A spy, driven out of her home by a tyrant ruler. He is granite and earth. A guard, ordered to keep her contained.

To protect herself and her family, she’s learned to go unnoticed, unseen. Suddenly, a refugee in a land that once was enemy and now must be home, she isn’t certain where she belongs, or what her duty is beyond her family. She can’t protect them alone this time, but the only man who can help her is the only one she cannot ask.

He’s sworn his loyalty to the Sultana since she lifted him out of the gutter that made him. The arrival of a foreign spy loyal to the new prince makes him question himself and his orders, and his mistakes threaten the life of the ruler he swore to serve.

War will force choices of them both. She—to remain a spy, or stand and lend her powerful, untamed magic to the Sultana of Tamar. He—to remain a loyal, unquestioning guard, or learn to trust his instincts, and his heart.

They are magic in opposition, earth and sky, steady and mutable. One immovable as stone, the other fast as the wind. Balance, sometimes, is chaos.

He needed the storm and wildness of her, he needed the way she broke him apart.

Loved this even more than book 1!

What a fantastic couple and unfolding of this incredible magical world. This might be my favorite book of the series but it’s a tough call!

Nice book, performance accents are odd

Good book i enjoyed it overall. Only thing is - If the characters are middle eastern, why are the accents indian? Sounds weird. Other than accents it's good overall

All around great

Great story, great narrators, loving the whole series! I’ve been devouring them and hate that I’m coming to the last one!

A little slower

I had already heard that this book was a little slow, and it was but I enjoyed it and where the story is going. I’m not a huge fan of different couples in every book unless it’s way more heavy on romance than fantasy, but I still enjoyed it.

New Characters, Who Dis?

Well, to start, it really threw me for a loop that it was through new perspectives than book 1. This is not a bad thing, I just went into it blind. That being said, I still thoroughly enjoyed this story. I loved the exploration of the magic system, the tension between the MFC and MMC, and the return to court intrigue. This book shines in the smaller moments, the budding love and the character growth. I will say, parts are very “corny” but in the best possible ways. I found myself laughing openly at the humor and getting hit in the feels at some of the more… electric parts. All up, a fantastic book two to what it swiftly becoming one of my favorite series of 2024!

Fantastic Narration, Fun Story

This is my favorite of a truly awesome series. The intrigue and plotting is equally good to the relationships, which is rare. I can’t recommend it enough.

Better than Book 1

If you liked the first book you’ll love the second. Same story line and characters- different focus. It picks up with the same story line and it just gets more interesting. While the first book is building the background and the picture, the second moves forward but a slower big picture with more focus on character development. Can’t wait to read book 3.

A fantastic book 2!

What a lovely textured fantasy. It’s so enchanting to watch this world develop through different story lines and I simply cannot wait to jump into book 3! The audio performance?! Perfection.
