Held captive in the barbarian kingdom of Venda, Lia and Rafe have little chance of escape...and even less of being together.

Desperate to save her life, Lia's erstwhile assassin, Kaden, has told the Vendan Komisar that she has a magical gift, and the Komisar's interest in Lia is greater than either Kaden or Lia foresaw.

Meanwhile the foundations of Lia's deeply held beliefs are crumbling beneath her. Nothing is straightforward: There's Rafe, who lied to her but has sacrificed his freedom to protect her; Kaden, who meant to assassinate her but has now saved her life; and the Vendans, whom she always believed to be barbarians but whom she now realizes are people who have been terribly brutalized by the kingdoms of Dalbreck and Morrighan. Wrestling with her upbringing, her gift, and her very sense of self, Lia will have to make powerful choices that affect her country, her people...and her own destiny.

Read by Emily Rankin, with Ryan Gesell, Kirby Heyborne, Kim Mai Guest, and Ann Marie Lee.

I don't know how you can make a second installment better than the first, I personally struggled with the first book but this one I am blown a way by. Incredible storyline and character development which I thought was lacking in the first. I cannot wait to get started on the next and I will definitely recommend this series in the future.

Clearly a transition between books 1 and 3. I liked that there was minimal retelling of book 1. There were periods where i felt that there was too much angst over emotion or perceptions of relationships, but i guess that is in order of a teen genre, and i was happy to be able to speed up the narration

Im looking forward to the 3rd book. Especially since I've just now looked at the mixed reviews in regards to the ending

Good transition story

I think this book is my favorite in the series, it feels so magical and empowering. I love Jezelia and her complex character, her inner battle really pulls you in and has you cheering her on. This series is so so good! And this book is my favorite probably because I love Kaden and this one really expands on their relationship. The narrators also did a great job!

Love this series!!

Where does The Heart of Betrayal rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Loved it so much because of the story and the narrators!!!

What other book might you compare The Heart of Betrayal to and why?

Winner's Crime by Marie Rotkoski

What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

They gave a different feel that you do not get from reading a book.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It was a psychological thriller, it made my heart race especially when the Komisar was around, I hated him!!!

Any additional comments?

Because I am already listening to #3 all I will say about this amazing audiobook is that I loved this book and narrators Emily Rankin, Ann Marie Lee, Ryan Gesell, Kirby Heyborne, Kim Mai were so so good!!! The deception and betrayal and most especially that dreadful Vendan Komisar who was so power hungry and heinous, made my skin crawl every time he spoke and oh did he speak. As Lia and Rafe are captured and prisoners of Venda, readers will race to try to find out if they make it out and what will happen with Caden and Pauline. Oh the lies and subterfuge were so thorough - a must read series!!!

Stealth and Lies Continue for Lia!
