About this listen

Live. Leap. Pretend. Forget.

Drowning in darkness. Sentenced to silence.

Fields and rain. Cathedral to cage.

Crunch. Squeak. Blood.

TY

She’s my never. My fortress. My moon.

Rena Noire—the one I’m not allowed to touch.

As a Cabal leader with a sordid past, hell is all I’ve ever had to offer.

So, I’ve kept my distance from the menacing angel.

But the sand is blowing everywhere, the line growing fainter.

And as danger closes in, all I see is her.

My forbidden. My compass. The forever I’ll burn for.

But it all comes back to one wrong choice.

RENA

As the youngest Noire sibling and heiress of our hospitality empire, I’m destined to be the heart, but never the head.

A princess locked in a bell tower.

That would be fine if Tytan Reynolds would storm my castle, but he’s determined to stay on his side of the moat.

My far-fetched fantasy and my brothers’ friend.

But when my world topples upside down, I glimpse the heat in his gaze.

I run. He chases.

He wants to shield. I belong to the dark.

Once we jump, the abyss with my tortured sailor is nothing like I expected.

Bound and gagged. Bullets of freedom. Time is ticking.

Nothing left to lose.

Falling more and more in love with this series…

Ty has been one of my favorite characters in this series from the very beginning, so I was super excited to learn more of his backstory. And Brandy did not disappoint. Ty and Rena’s journey just made me fall even more in love with this series and this amazing world Brandy is creating.

As one of the top officials in KORT, Ty leads a dangerous life. That is just one of the excuses he makes for keeping his distance from Rena. It’s clear to everyone in his found family that he has feelings for the young Noire princess. But his tortured past is another reason he doesn’t want to make a move and bring Rena into his dark world.

Rena has had a major crush on Ty for years and has been secretly hoping he will one day finally make his move. After a moment of vulnerability from Ty, she starts to wonder if the attraction is not one sided after all. But when she discovers secrets that rock her foundations, she makes a run for it to get some space.

Ty is desperate to find Rena and keep her safe. When she drops some clues he’s ready to chase her no matter what. The danger in their interconnected worlds can no longer be avoided and decisions have to be made fast. Those decisions set things in motion that can’t be stopped. It’s a fight to prove themselves and a fight to stay alive.

Every time I think I know who my favorite couple in this series is Brandy throws me for a loop. So I’m refusing to choose. I loved Ty and Rena’s story so much. They fought their attraction for so long and deserved to be happy and heal. That’s exactly what they do for each other in their own special ways. I love this whole found family and their crazy, fun, and slightly twisted but fiercely loyal and protective dynamic. I just want more and more.

AUDIOBOOK UPDATE: This was another great addition to The KORT collection. I love how well these narrators brought Ty and Rena's story to life. And the duet style narration is so good. Oh I love this series so much!! The audio just brings a whole new element to this world that just enhances how great it is.

so perfect!

I was LIVING for Ty & Rena and their story together! Both have some demons that they battle and I love how their demons fit so perfectly with one another. We've seen them both in the earlier books and knew they were both pining, but seeing their story play out was perfect. And the audiobook for this was phenomenal! Narrated in duet by Teddy Hamilton and Avery Caris - I devoured it and couldn't stop listening!

What to expect: romantic suspense, secret society, forbidden, mutual pining, mafia, touch her and die, forbidden, found family, strong FMC, piercings

After finishing Tracing Scars, I literally cannot wait for Gage's story and need that book to be released asap!

Great love story

It’s a great love story and learning to be able to let go of the past. I definitely recommend reading the first in the series before this one. You can’t go wrong with Teddy Hamilton as the narrator

✨ ANOTHER GREAT LISTEN ✨

I liked this listen and it’s 5 star.. however, it’s my least favourite because Rena and Ty were a done deal from the start and I would’ve liked a bit more sexual tension and chemistry build. They were both secretly in love with each other but Ty’s worry over the missing Rena had him following her to Vegas where his possession, purpose and past merge. Both have demons, both would die to protect one another and both will go through the spins and torments of the KORT trials. Good character growth, hot, great pre loved secondary characters from the prior books and awesome duet-style voice acting by Avery and Teddy who were both excellent as they delivered the feels and tone each well-written chapter called for.

Worth a credit? Yes and I’m looking forward to the next book.

Absolutely amazing!

Each story in this series is dynamic and unique and this one is no different. The characters are so true to themselves and it makes the love they have for each other all the more moving. I found myself immersed in the story and wondering what trials and tribulations await them. I absolutely recommend this entire series and look forward to the remaining books.

Love Ty and Rena! My favs.

This is the third book in the Kort Series, and I highly recommend reading books one and two first to fully appreciate the story. Each book keeps getting better, and this might just be my favorite couple yet!

This installment follows Ty and Rena, whose banter is absolutely irresistible. Rena has had a crush on Ty for a while, and she's finally ready to act on their undeniable chemistry. However, Ty hesitates due to his past and his connection to Rena’s brothers. Despite her feelings for him, Rena doesn’t make things easy, she keeps him on his toes every step of the way. But when it comes to protecting her, Ty won’t hold back.

The suspense in this book is just as gripping as ever, and I devoured every moment. The narrators are the perfect fit for Ty and Rena, capturing both their teasing dynamic and their sweeter moments flawlessly. If you loved books one and two as much as I did, you won’t want to miss this one, it's my favorite so far!

Love Love Love

here do I freaking begin??? The KORT series just keeps getting better and better. This book is absolutely stunning.

Brandy is the QUEEN of badass FMC’s. I have never loved FMC’s as much as I love Ivy, Celeste, and Rena. In the first 2 books, we get to see Rena’s spunk and personality peek through. In Tracing Scars, not only do we get her spunk, but also her insecurities and her darkness.

Ty and Rena have been secretly in love with her other for years now. Ty’s grief is so palpable, I couldn’t stop my heart from breaking for him. Because of this, he’s kept Rena at a distance, hoping to protect her from his darkness. However, once Ty gives one little crack in his walls, Rena is full steam ahead. Girl knows what she wants and fights for it, pushing his boundaries and forcing him to let his demons play with hers.

Once again, we see not just the main characters relationship develop, but the whole groups. The dynamic of the group is so endearing, everyone jumping in to support Rena and Ty any way they can. The love and dedication, from both families, is incredible. I loved the deeper looks into the Noire’s. I’m excited to see what’s to come for all of them!

That ending was amazingggg. 🔥 🔥

I loved it so much. Their post-it notes were adorable. Wells’ candy addiction just keeps getting better. Liam’s personality is still the very best. Gage’s intense devotion to his family is top notch. Ivy and Celeste scheming with Rena to get Ty in line is perfect. 💜 🤍

Favorite Quotes:
“Well, you’re not the only one trekking through Hell, Ty. And I am more than willing to burn with you.”
“Don’t hold back with me, Ty. I’m lost, but I’m strong. Give me your demons. And I’ll give you mine. We can let them dance together.”
“We fell in love by Tracing Scars.”
“Freedom is being together


🎧 LOVED the duet narration by Teddy Hamilton and Avery Caris! They were perfect for Ty and Rena. I will never get over him calling her “Little Moon” 😍

Incredible Dark Romance

“…relegated to an eternal nightmare, and you are the
one source of fcking light.”

✨I’ve spent this week listening to Tracing Scars, book three in the KORT series and my gods!

This dark romance gave me everything I wanted, a captivating plot, one that kept me riding that edge, while also fulfilling my hearts every desire with the amazing character and relationship development.

✨There were so many times that I broke for these characters, so many times that their banter made me laugh, and the swoon of it all perfectly blended with spice was incredible!

This story is full of longing and angst, secrets, found family in a way I’ve never felt, and I couldn’t love it more. Listening along as these characters battled their own inner demons really tore at all of my heartstrings. I laughed, I melted with the heat, felt anxious in the best way, and I sobbed ❤️

✨And these incredible narrators absolutely delivered in the most epic way of ensuring the listener felt every twist, turn, moment of whiplash, and swoon with their performances.

Tracing Scars is the third book in the KORT series, best read or listened to in order. And I’ve taken my time savoring Ty and Rena’s story and I KNOW this is one to add to your TBR.
