Publisher's summary

Welcome to Nocturne Falls, the town that celebrates Halloween 365 days a year. The tourists think it's all a show: the vampires, the werewolves, the witches, the occasional gargoyle flying through the sky. But the supernaturals populating the town know better.

Living in Nocturne Falls means being yourself. Fangs, fur, and all. Death is what grim reaper Lucien Dupree knows best. Or rather, he did until his reaping powers became tragically unreliable. Now he’s living in a self-imposed exile to keep humanity safe. Sure, it’s a lonely existence, but it’s the best thing for everyone. Except him.

Retired genie, Imari Zephara, has found her happy place in Nocturne Falls. Well, as happy as she can be considering the alternative returning home would bring her. Then a dark force rears its ugly head and throws her life into turmoil. Suddenly the only way to save herself is to join forces with death, who turns out to be a pretty amazing guy.

But Lucien’s defective powers might not be enough to overcome centuries of jinn tradition, meaning Imari’s life would no longer be her own. All he wants is to give her the chance to choose her own future. Hopefully, one that includes him. What more could a guy a wish for?

Featured Article: No Full Moon Needed—Here Are the 20 Best Werewolf Audiobooks to Listen to Right Now


Tired of listening to stories about humans? Consider the werewolf! Taking various forms over the course of centuries and mythologies, often as flesh-devourers, werewolves now commonly appear in fantasy and romance novels as shape-shifters. The shape-shifting element in werewolves' stories has almost humanized them, depicting the internal struggles we all face within ourselves, on some level or another.

Another winner!!!!!!

As always, Kristen Painter brings it. This book is no exception. And as always, B J Harrison brings the characters to life. He is a fantastic narrator. This book is about Lucien, a retired reaper and he meets his love in a Genie. Even though each had their on problems, things have a way of working out.

One of my favorite characters!!

Finally! I have made it to Lucien’s story!! The Reaper Rescues the Genie is book 9 of the Nocturne Falls series. I originally saw Lucien in the Jayne Frost spin-off series and was really interested in hearing more about him so I was really happy to get to this book.

This book is almost non-stop action. I loved it. A lot of this series is about Vampires and Shifters so it was really cool to see something a little different this time. Lucien is a Reaper and Imari is Jinn and a Genie. Learning about both of their ways of life and customs was interesting.

I love this series and I recommend it along with the spin-off series, Jayne Frost.

The narrator is the same for the entire Nocturne Falls series. He does a great job!

Nocturne Falls Just Gets Better and Better

Had sworn off reading another book with a reaper as the main character, having been disappointed by a different author's book.
But I decided to try this since it was written by Kristen Painter and narrated by B. J. Harrison. They are a winning team. This book is a wonderful addition to the Nocturne Falls series and I even fell in love with the Reaper (and the rest of the new characters in this volume also of course). This story had enough twists and turns to keep me trying to figure out how it would turn out. I even thought the story was going to end at one point and noticed there were still a lot of chapters to go. It extended beyond what I thought would be the end and I am so glad it did. Kristen Painter made it all pull together perfectly. B. J. Harrison is my favorite male narrator and even he surprised me outdoing his other audiobook narrations of this series. Three cheers for him. I am so glad he is the narrator for this series, it is like icing on a cake. This book will be on my 're-read later' list.

A Reaper and a Genie?

This book caught my eye with this pair. Very unique paranormal match. Like how the author teaches us about the traits of these paranormals (many I did not know before) and then she takes these traits and blends them into the storyline. This is a suspenseful novel with a few twists but always a good ending, feel good story (one you do not want to have to put down). Love all in this series and the narrator is superb. On to the next book.

I've been waiting for this story!

What could be better than a reaper and a genie? A reaper, genie, and a ghost! I was so excited to finally get Lucien's story, and this book did not disappoint. If Imari could grant me one wish, it would be the ability to live in Nocturne Falls, at least part time. Kristen Painter's books are always worth a listeb, and this one is certainly no different.
