About this listen
Only love can set her free....
Envy is a lucky lady with a secret vice: She's (arguably) one of the best thieves in the kingdom - something her current employer, the queen herself, has no knowledge of. When one of her more audacious gambles gets her caught, Envy thinks her luck's run out. The queen banishes her to Bran Tower, a haunted, forgotten prison of no escape.
Envy thinks she’s doomed to be alone and trapped forever, but - each night - a stunning woman appears in her impenetrable prison. The mysterious, enchanting Merle befriends her, and as each magical night enfolds, Envy soon realizes that she’s falling in love with her....
What follows next is a magical love story and adventure that will sweep you off your feet! Set in the enchanting world of Bridget’s beloved Knight books, this is a stand-alone novel of bewitching romance that you’ll never forget!
Note: This book got its start in life as the novella, Cage the Darlings, previously published by Elora Bishop, Bridget’s old fantasy romance pen name. It was expanded into the novel you are about to hear and is now being published again under Bridget's actual name.

But one night, during an unusually vicious storm, magic and romance appear in Holly's backyard in the form of a mysterious, gorgeous woman...wielding a sword.

To be born into a family of royal assassins pretty much guarantees that your life is going to be rather unusual. Especially if, like Miscellaneous 'Lanie' Stones, you also have a vicious allergy to all forms of violence and bloodshed, and an uncanny affinity for bringing the dead back to life. To make matters worse, family debt looms—a debt that will have to be paid sooner rather than later if Lanie and her sister are to retain ownership of the ancestral seat, Stones Manor.

Sera Lighthaven has always felt as if she didn’t quite belong among her people, the Cerulean, who live in the city above the sky. She is curious about everything - especially the planet her city is magically tethered to - and can’t stop questioning things. Sera has always longed for the day when the tether will finally break and the Cerulean can move to a new planet. But when Sera is chosen as the sacrifice to break the tether, she feels betrayed by everything in which she’d been taught to trust. In order to save her city, Sera must end her own life.

Everyone dreams of marrying a prince - except for me. I am nothing more than a pawn in my adoptive mother's diabolical plot against the seven kingdoms. I was the chosen tool, her sharpened blade that would cut the deepest into the heart of the kingdom of Baist. But like all deadly weapons, my wedding is two-edged sword that could cost me my soul. For I am Rosalie, one of the adopted daughters of Lady Eville, and it is my duty to enter into a loveless and hate-filled marriage with the narcissistic Crown Prince of Baist.

Fantastic, wonderful story
I loved the book; the story and the plot are absolutely fantastic. We get to see great characters, a lot of action, mystery and magic. I really loved the development, left me with a happy feeling.
The narration by Stephanie Murphy is wonderful; she conveys the story effortlessly and made it feel like being there, part of it all.
I highly recommend it.
