About this listen

A huge fan of Jane Austen, Danielle hopes to find her own Mr. Darcy when she leaves Colorado to attend art school in London. Of course she knows it's silly to wish for that, naive even. But she's met enough males who lacked respect for women, a growing trend it seemed. And at 19...well... However, on only her second night there she gets lost and is threatened by a stalker who proves to be immune to her martial-arts training. Before she is completely overpowered, she is then saved by Ethan Deveroux.

While Danielle does find the romance she seeks in Ethan, he's no Mr. Darcy. Her hero is held by a spell which fractures their chance at a happy ending. During the day Ethan is closer to mortal than immortal and can date her like any other man. Yet, as the sun sets, the powerful magic of an ancient curse returns and the evil of that spell is revealed. When that magic begins, Danielle's fairy-tale romance ends because Ethan Deveroux is a vampire.

Would you listen to Fateful again? Why?

Already read twice and listened twice!

Which character – as performed by Tristan Hunt – was your favourite?

MAX! The way Tristan brings Max to life is wonderful, I feel like I know max as a jokey big brother role.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Personally I listen while I'm chilling in bed getting ready to sleep or doing something like ironing to keep me interested! I couldn't listen in one sitting due to the length but its definitely hard to put down.

Any additional comments?

Go for the sequel, ir does not disappoint!

Will leave you desperate for the sequel

It was great to hear the story as I could listen to what my imagination had conjured after reading the book.
