Thank you to Simon & Schuster Audio and the author for the gifted audiobook.

I was completely captivated by the intricate web of secrets, power struggles, and rivalries in the world of Fantome. The transformation of Seraphine and Ransom's relationship from enemies to lovers was utterly compelling. The final part of the book had me on the edge of my seat with its numerous twists and turns. The magic system and the intense rivalry between the Daggers and the Cloaks were exceptionally well depicted. The ending left me wanting more of these characters.  

The narrators skillfully brought the characters to life with their diverse voices, drawing me further into the story.

This phenomenal book is available now. Trust me, you won't want to miss it!
