About this audiobook

Paranormal Romance — slow burn romance, happily ever after, swoony romance reads. A shadow fae lord with a shattered court. A human scholar with a dangerous secret. And a curse that demands the ultimate sacrifice. When scholar Elara Vance’s sister is snatched by the cursed Court of Shadow and Thorn, she has no choice but to seek an audience with its enigmatic ruler, Lord Thorne. He offers a bargain: Elara will decipher the ancient curse binding his land, and in return, he will help her find her sister. But the curse has teeth, and every step closer to the truth tears her further from the woman she used to be. The complication: Thorne is more than a monster of legend. He is a broken, magnetic figure whose touch stirs a forbidden hunger in her blood. And the more she works beside him—amid whispered court intrigue, candlelit libraries, and the constant threat of betrayal—the harder it is to remember he is her enemy. Then she uncovers the curse’s terrible cost. To save her sister, Elara must become the vessel for the very magic that is killing the court. But if she takes that power, she will be bound to Thorne forever—body, soul, and memory—or lose both her sister and her own humanity. The impossible choice: surrender her freedom to a man she cannot trust, or let her sister die in a darkness Elara was born to lift. For fans of Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout, this is a steamy, tension-filled paranormal romance with a secret baby, workplace rivalry, and a fated love that refuses to die. Tropes: enemies to lovers, forced proximity, only one bed, fae and human, curse breaking, forbidden magic, brooding hero, strong-willed heroine, and a secret that could destroy them both. The Courts of Ash and Shadow series continues with A Throne of Ash and Ember, where Elara and Thorne’s story deepens as new threats rise from the ashes of the old world. If you crave a slow-burn romance with high stakes, political intrigue, and a love that defies fate itself, step into the shadows. Perfect for readers who love **Harley Laroux** and **Liv Zander**.
