Story 3.5⭐️
Spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️/5
Narration ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I saw that cliffhanger coming all the way from [redacted]. Just saying. I'm not mad about it, but I am and Greer's [redacted] is a _____ (fill in the blank). Otherwise it was an interesting take on the legend of King Arthur in that besides the names and the step sibling thing I didn't really see it. Maybe that will change with the next two books.

As for the spice...there was an abundance and some of it I have decidedly never read before now. I was ok with that. Ash is def a Dom, but good lord Greer use the safe word! Holy hell she just seemed bullied into it every time.

The narration was perfectly casted. I had only ever heard Teddy Hamilton and Shane East before. So naturally I knew they would be wonderful. However, Sophie Eastlake and Rex Rhys were phenomenal and I will def give anything Rex does in the future a listen for sure. Valarie Azlynn was perfectly evil as her character.

Will I listen to the next two books? I bought the bundle so that's a yes. Do I wish I had waited also yes.
