About this listen

London, 1881. Once the flames are ignited...

Miranda Ellis is a woman tormented. Plagued since birth by a strange and powerful gift, she has spent her entire life struggling to control her exceptional abilities. Yet one innocent but irreversible mistake has left her family's fortune decimated and forced her to wed London's most nefarious nobleman.

They will burn for eternity...

Lord Benjamin Archer is no ordinary man. Doomed to hide his disfigured face behind masks, Archer knows it's selfish to take Miranda as his bride. Yet he can't help being drawn to the flame-haired beauty whose touch sparks a passion he hasn't felt in a lifetime. When Archer is accused of a series of gruesome murders, he gives in to the beastly nature he has fought so hard to hide from the world. But the curse that haunts him cannot be denied.

Now, to save his soul, Miranda will enter a world of dark magic and darker intrigue. For only she can see the man hiding behind the mask.

Any additional comments?

I wanted a light, easy to listen to, yet entertaining book (to listen to in bed when my brain has already gone to sleep), preferably with a supernatural or 'different' slant. However, I wanted it to have a great story, be intelligently and well written and be without any of the cheesy, explicit and frankly unsexy sex scenes often found in this type of book. I had given up hope when I found this in the sale! It is entertaining and sexy and I am already on the next in the series - which also seems great !

Just what I'd been looking for!

I love a good epic fantasy but sometimes I just want a strong woman and a bit of Victorian overbearing romance in my life :)

Love the characters and story line

fast paced enjoyable listen

Out of all the audiobooks I have, this one was by far the best. I loved the narrator, she didn't fall into the trap of trying to imitate a male voice which is both unachievable and unrealistic. Her voice was hypnotic. I will keep her in mind for future purchases.

Really enjoyed the story too, it was an original storyline and had me hooked up until the last. I will enjoy listening to this again.

Loved it!

I hated it from the start but tried to keep going to see if it got better. It's not sexy just crass.

Just Awlful
