About this listen
He's never wanted anyone... until her.
After being condemned to the fighting Pits as a child, Kace was forced to do horrifying things to survive. Now, as an adult with a curse that intensifies his rage, he keeps himself away from anything that can break his carefully constructed control. So when he meets Eva, the only woman who has ever ignited such raw, violent passion, he has no choice but to stay away.
Eva didn't think much when her vampire ex-boyfriend showed up asking for her back. Except she wasn't interested, and the man she had once loved wasn't taking no for an answer. Defended by a tall, moody and definitely dangerous man her ex left, and she thought that was the end of it…
Until she wakes up dead.
Thrown into an unfamiliar world, Eva only has one hope to free herself from her new master, and it just happens to be the same man she’s been warned to stay away from.

Story
From a poor underground street fighter, I rose to fame as the world heavyweight boxing champion. No one knew I was also a monster who hunted in the shadows. Trapped in the mafia until my debts were paid. A simple deal held my freedom—unify my belts. It seemed simple until an enchanting British firecracker landed on my lap, knocking me sideways. Wanting her was dangerous for us both, but I took her anyway. Leaving me with the choice, fight for my freedom or hers. When the truth is unmasked, could she still love me? Would love be enough to battle our demons and come out on top?

When a trip into the forest to collect a rare mushroom goes horribly wrong, I find myself falling through a fairy portal and straight into the arms of the Unseelie Fae prince. The dangerously unhinged and handsome Unseelie Fae prince. What could be more horrible than that? He thinks I'm an assassin sent by the humans to kill him, not a biologist. Determined to kill me first and rid himself of the human he has unwillingly grown obsessed with, yet also needing to entertain his people, the villain challenges me to three deadly trials.

She needs this job, even if she is scared to death of the owner of the company. To Mia, huge, grumpy men aren't sexy; they're simply terrifying.

Story
I’ve slapped my cuffs on Luna Lancaster too many times to count and not a single one was for fun. As the sheriff of Starlight Cove, I shouldn't crave her, but I do. She’s chaos, mayhem, and sunshine wrapped up in too-tight yoga pants. The lawbreaker might have the town enamored with her free spirit, but she’s a thorn in my side, even if she is the sexiest woman I've ever seen. I want her out of my town and out of my head. Trouble is, she's made it perfectly clear she's not going anywhere.

I escaped his prison, only to stumble upon a dangerous school ruled by five heirs. Girls fight to fall into their laps, even though they’re all hot mess assholes.

Kirian and I were just 12 years old when I pulled him from the creek behind my house. As he looked in my direction with unseeing lavender eyes, I quickly realized our age was just about the only thing we had in common. He spoke with an accent, he had pointy ears, and he was so beautiful it made my heart ache. Oh, and he claimed to be a fae prince cursed by witches who stole his sight. I thought he was crazy from hypothermia. Turns out, he wasn’t, and for some reason he keeps coming back. But a day in my world is a year in his. Every time I see him, he’s older. Wiser. Hotter.

I didn't go looking for trouble, and yet it found me, nonetheless. I could either join it or let it crush me.

Captivating!
This is the second book in the Curse of the Guardians Series, a dark paranormal romance. Kace and Eva's story is fast-paced, passionate, entertaining, and captivating. The world building is enthralling. This story is darker than the first book in the series. Lilly Drake and DB West did a good job bringing this story to life. Looking forward to listening to Whisper of Fate, the next book in the series. #PFPAudio

The narrators did a good job telling the story.
3.5* storyline
It's a bit of a slow romance. I felt bad for the FMC as she was taken and disappeared and no one noticed or bothered looking for her some time. It was a good story that got more interesting towards the end.

Curse of Guardians, Book 2
Kace and Eva are my favorite couple of this series. I adored Eva in the first book, especially after she threatened Kace with a frying pan. I love her feisty spirit. Kace is the misunderstood "broken" Guardian that everyone fears will go off the deep end and hurt someone, but Eva has no fear of him. This story line was very unique as a good part of the book had these two main characters separate and dealing with their own hellish situations. Eva was recently turned against her will into a vampire by her abusive ex while Kace was searching for a child that was in danger. Most stories have the main characters thrown into a situation where they are forced together and have to deal with their feelings. This couple goes through their own versions of hell to find their way to each other. I definitely recommend reading in order. The side characters like Lucy (AKA Lucifer) are very entertaining. The narrators did a great job. Look forward to continuing the series.

Very Good
I really liked this one. The only problem I am having is that I don't remember much of book one for some reason. My mind is drawing a blank. It is a good thing that these books can be read as a standalone. Or I would have been completely lost. It was almost 6 months ago, in my defense. But I usually have a better memory than this.
But book two was good. I don't love how soft spoken both narrators are. I listen on speakers while I am doing things around the house. This book definitely works better, for me, with headphones. I feel like book 2 will stick out more in my mind than the last one. It pulled me in and kept my attention more than the first. I can't wait to see what book 3 will bring.

Touch of Blood
This is the second book in the Curse of the Guardians series. This book is told from Kace and Eva's POV. I really enjoyed this book. Kace has been forced to fight his entire life. Eva gets sold, and Kace will do anything to save her. Will his curse hinder his chances of rescuing her? Lilly Drake and DB West did a great job narrating this book.

Eva and Kace!!
This story takes place after the first, with Eva and her special relationship with Kace. Plus Eva's unsavory ex and an angsty teenage shifter.
It explores Kace's background and does an excellent job giving him the reason for his dark personality and I loved how Eva brought light to his darkness. They were a great foil to one another. Eva gets a lot thrown at her in a short amount of time and she does her best to stay strong, despite circumstances beyond her control.
It's a good story with fantastic chemistry between Eva and Kace (and literally everyone trying to pull them apart because Kace is just a smidge crazy and a lot violent). I've enjoyed the background and world that the author has created and I'm glad she's still writing books in it!
In the first half of the book, there aren't too many scenes with the two leads, but the latter half has plenty of steaminess and banter. Plus Lucy makes an appearance or two and I am here for it!
The narrators are great! They both did a great job with voicing all the characters. I liked that the same narrators continued with the series, as they both helped out with the first book in the series.
This story contains lots of violence (some gore), steam, abduction, abuse, and implied SA (nothing on page).
I recommend reading the story in order. They are all unique books with their own stories, but understanding everything is better if read in order.
Note: this series is set in the same world as the Alice Skye series, while not necessary to read that series first, I'd recommend it because it is a wonderful series and introduces most of the characters in this series.

Book 2
This is book 2 in White's Curse of the Guardians series and was beautifully narrated by the talents of Drake and West - loved the accents as well as the pitch and tone - these two were amazing! Our main characters are Kace and Eva who we met in book 1. While I very much enjoyed this dark, paranormal romance listen, I found that some of the storyline didn't seem to flow as smoothly or was as easy to follow as some, but I still loved our characters and the darkness that consumed them and threatened their HEA. Lots of violence within but plenty of steamy chemistry and some twists and turns as well. I think my favorite character is Lucy who brings out the best comic relief and had me bursting out in laughter as his banter and personality. I also loved that while Kace is part of the Guardians and a team, he still isolates himself so much and somehow Eva is able to break through that barrier with no effort. Overall, a very well-done paranormal romance with lots of dark elements (please be aware of trigger warnings - if applicable) and enjoy this listen of revenge and redemption!
This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.
