About this listen
Come one, come all, to Harrow Faire...and greet your sweetest nightmare.
Cora Glass’ humdrum existence as a bank teller flips upside down when a long-abandoned circus mysteriously returns to life. But the entry fee to this big-top show is far more than Cora bargained for.
A deal struck. A soul...stuck.
As Harrow Faire shines a spotlight on Cora, she discovers there are far more secrets in that three-ring nightmare than she could possibly imagine. Trapped in the world of the fiendish and alluring man known as the Puppeteer, Cora finds herself caught in a war between him and the reclusive Mr. Harrow. Both parties will stop at nothing - even murder - to get what they want.
And what they want...is her.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Caught in one feud too many, he's on the verge of becoming a dead barbarian - leaving nothing behind him but bad songs, dead friends, and a lot of happy enemies. Nobleman, dashing officer, and paragon of selfishness, Captain Jezal dan Luthar has nothing more dangerous in mind than fleecing his friends at cards and dreaming of glory in the fencing circle.

It was supposed to be easy: find the drug maker. Find her, and drag her back to the dragons to deal with. She deserves death for what she's done. For someone like Weston, the best alpha in the world, the one who shuts people up just by walking in the room, it would've been. Until he learns what she is. Finding a fated mate is nearly impossible. Very few are able to do it. But the call of their bond is unmistakable. Against all odds, and in the worst situation imaginable, he's found his true mate. Her.

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

Two years ago, Louise le Blanc fled her coven and took shelter in the city of Cesarine, forsaking all magic and living off whatever she could steal. There, witches like Lou are hunted. They are feared. And they are burned. As a huntsman of the Church, Reid Diggory has lived his life by one principle: Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. But when Lou pulls a wicked stunt, the two are forced into an impossible situation - marriage. Lou, unable to ignore her growing feelings, yet powerless to change what she is, must make a choice. And love makes fools of us all.

When Luna is sold into marriage to the Prince of Darkness on her twenty-first birthday, she thinks she knows what to expect. Arranged marriages happen all the time, right? Wrong. No one could have prepared her for the reality of being married to the vampire prince. Ever since the day he was made, Sebastian has been living according to Queen Marguerite's rules. After all, he's only alive because of her. When she orders him to marry and bind himself to Luna, a human hailing a neighboring kingdom, he has no choice. He agrees to the marriage but never expects to feel anything for her.

Story
Locked away for twelve years, Sabine Darrow's only friends are animals she communicates with using magic. Now, sold as a bride to a villainous high lord, her greatest fear is trading one prison for another. But a potential escape lies in the form of her gruff yet achingly handsome guard, whose loyalty she is determined to break. A huntsman with heightened senses, Basten "Wolf" Bowborn has more important things to do than transport his master's new bride. With ancient creatures reawakening along the kingdom's border wall, he is torn between his duty and his desire to investigate.

Very Promising!
Good first book to kick off what looks to be an awesome series. I cannot wait to see how the romance develops! This book def has a creepy feel to it’s unique world build. I’m new to this author but she is fast becoming a new favorite! I’m already downloading the first book to another one of her series while I get ready to buy book 2 of this series! The narration was well done and the ending left me hungry for more without being the kind of cliffhanger that makes you want to bash your face into a wall,

I enjoyed how unique this book was!
I wasn't a big fan of the language. The swearing seemed too forced and the comebacks too.

Great book but,
I am writing this review while listening to the last book in this series. I love the story and writing in the whole series and the narration is amazing. This book, The Contortionist, is the first book in the series and so far is the best one because it's the only one that didn't have graphic sex scenes in it. I understand that in this particular story it does help to understand the characters better but I feel that it could also have been done without it being so graphic. I think books 2,3 and 4 should not be listed as horror but should be reclassified as some type of romance. I don't normally listen to any type of romance but the story had enough paranormal to keep me listening. If you don't mind the graphic sex and you like a little horror and wonderful narration then this series is amazing! I took 1 star off of 2,3 and 4 because of the sex and the incorrect classification. I have not finished the last book yet so that may get another review and/or an edit here.

Love this series!
One of my favorite series by Kathryn Ann Kingsley. Simon is the best psycho MMC and Cora is perfect for him. Narration was also amazing, kudos to Hollie Jackson for that.

Great series!!
I absolutely loved every series that I have read and listened to by Kathryn Ann Kingsley! She creates amazing characters and great twists and turns in her books. Her work is so creative and unique. I love dark romances and this book does not disappoint in that but it’s so much more than just a romance series. Hollie jackson is an awesome narrator. Her voices and accents work perfectly with the story. I love the tempo that she narrates and just the perfect amount of acting.

Very interesting
I waited to listen to the entire series before i rated it and id say the first book has a completely different vibe from the rest in my opinion. The first one seems more thriller i had goose bumps but it was very good. I truly cant remember the second one very well but i remember liking it. all in all a very interesting and good read one of the books feels closer to erotica but i didnt mind that but i guess if you weren't here for that id be a bit wary of it.

I normally don't do circus or carnival books......
This was purchased on a whim through one of audibles sales. I am a credit subscriber, not just a one off purchaser, and seldom do I find new authors who can keep my attention. I do not like to DNF any book though, I have quite a few still sitting on my bookshelf, with bookmarks firmly in place from years past, sadly. I started audible years ago, or I should say audio books while working as I needed something to help filter out the noise in my head. So I am an old reader, per se. This book is an amazing treat to supernatural and fantasy fans anywhere. It really does ponder the question which path do you take and can you deal with the consequences of that single choice, as life is that way in the long run. Enjoyed, enjoyed, enjoyed so much! Thank you for writing such an interesting character, who many of us can see ourselves in. Also the narration was lovely.
SPOILER ALERT: That being said this kept me coming back to hear the next part. I literally would listen while driving or working, or even in bed at night when I just couldn't find sleep. Now I have to finish the series as I am so very entrenched in what occurs in the life of Miss Glass, and the puppeteer. As the faire lives again in the same location it appears to me a conundrum of sorts on how your main character will accustom herself to life, while seeing people she loved who no longer know who she is!

I love this book!
Fantastic. Glad to read a book with characters that I actually care about, they have such intrigue. The performance was definitely a asset to this novel as well, none of it seemed odd or took me out of the story. Now I’m going to have to burn through credits for the next 4!

I’m Hooked
I decided to try this one because I really loved the Immortal Souls series and now I’m hooked. Moving right on to book two. Very creepy, yet throughly satisfying.
I will say I did not like the narration choice. Hollie Jackson is usually really good, but her inflections choices were strange. Not bad enough to ruin the book, but kind of disappointing.

Surprisingly Good
As someone with chronic pain/illness, surprisingly good representation, and almost TOO relatable. The narrator was good on her own, if somewhat dry, but her accents all sound the same. not trying to be harsh, but I'd honestly rather she not try a transatlantic accent imo. Seriously though, definitely not all bad and the story was intriguing to make me want more.
