About this listen
A rich, dark urban fantasy debut following a teen witch who is given a horrifying task: sacrificing her first love to save her family’s magic. The problem is, she’s never been in love—she’ll have to find the perfect guy before she can kill him.
After years of waiting for her Calling—a trial every witch must pass to come into their powers—the one thing Voya Thomas didn’t expect was to fail. When Voya’s ancestor gives her an unprecedented second chance to complete her Calling, she agrees—and then is horrified when her task is to kill her first love. And this time, failure means every Thomas witch will be stripped of their magic.
Voya is determined to save her family’s magic no matter the cost. The problem is, Voya has never been in love, so for her to succeed, she’ll first have to find the perfect guy—and fast. Fortunately, a genetic matchmaking program has just hit the market. Her plan is to join the program, fall in love, and complete her task before the deadline. What she doesn’t count on is being paired with the infuriating Luc—how can she fall in love with a guy who seemingly wants nothing to do with her?
With mounting pressure from her family, Voya is caught between her morality and her duty to her bloodline. If she wants to save their heritage and Luc, she’ll have to find something her ancestor wants more than blood. And in witchcraft, blood is everything.

The story focuses on Voya, and her family of Black witches, who use magic created by blood and intent. They all have individual gifts as well as more general magic, after completing a task given by their ancestors. The novel starts with Voya being given her task and being forced to face her unknown future.
Great YA, coming of age story. Wonderful world building & magical system. I did feel Voya's indecisiveness was pressed a little hard - but that might be because I'm indecisiveness and it felt like me haha.
Fabulous future fantasy

Afro-futuristic, magical, familial, comforting and page-turning. Couldn’t stop listening and downloaded book 2 straight away.
Brilliant

Amazing story!

The narrator, however, sounded at many points during the performance that they were just reading from a script, the tone of voice didn't fit with what was being portrayed, it was a little off putting.
Overall good story and plot.
