About this listen

Princess Elveena has never seen a dark elf in her life.

As a princess of the light of elves, their two kinds have been separated since before her birth. When a royal messenger arrives inviting them to a ball hosted by the king of the dark elves, Elvie knows she cannot pass up on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even after the warnings from her father, Elvie knows this will be a night she’ll never forget.

She expected to end the night with sore feet from the endless hours of dancing…not to be engaged to the king himself!

Trapped in this new kingdom, Elvie knows she must make the most of her new situation. With each passing day, she learns that King Arkain is not what she thought a dark elf would be like. Sure, he is mean and beastly compared to the males she is used to, but Elvie quickly finds that to be the reason he excites her so much.

As the threat of war looms, will this budding passion between Elvie and the king continue to blossom? Or will she lose herself and all that she loves in the process?

Really enjoyed this masterpiece

If you like the fantasy genre and in particular elves like I do and want a decent dark romance then this is the right book for you.

The story is simple but the romance intertwines well within it. The characters are of a good variety and the MMC is just what you would hope for. He's dark, moody and thirsty.

I wanted more BDSM from this book but it doesn't lack for spice or interest.

The narration by Will Thorne for the MMC is perfect. He has a Smoky and seductive voice.

Overall I really enjoyed this and would recommend it.

Very spicy fantasy fun

To be honest my only issue with this book is the length I just wish there was more, whilst I know there is another book in this series I find the whole dark elf/light elf aspect so interesting being so similar yet so different and it makes me wish there was a proper sequel

Loved the characters, story and pace
