About this listen

In the shadows, vision can turn blurry. Truths can become lies. Enemies can become lovers.

When Violet inexplicably wakes thousands of years after a nuclear holocaust, she finds the world very different. Fae exist now. They’re vicious, animalistic monsters who pervert magic and can morph into any shape—including vampires. They hoard the bounty of the new world, and keep humans banished to the wasteland. At least, that’s what the humans of today have told her. Determined to make up for an unforgivable mistake in her past, she becomes a covert assassin and seeks revenge for her human brethren. And she’s good at it. But when the thing she hunts saves her life, injuring himself in the process...her crystal clarity suddenly becomes blurry.

Vampires are meant to be monsters, not protectors...not charismatic, annoyingly handsome, and loyal and...everything.

Indigo is a Fae Guardian, and a ruthless vampire protector of Elphyne. The Order has tasked him with finding a human with deadly secrets before the unhinged Unseelie Queen, or the fanatical human leader, can exploit her. They chose him for one reason, and one reason only – the taste of human blood does things to him. Addictive, dark, insatiable things. And when he catches Violet’s scent, they know he’ll do everything in his power to possess her and keep her safe. But Indigo hides his own shameful secret in the shadows of his heart, and if it ever comes to light, Violet will never trust him. She’ll kill him.

The Secrets in Shadow and Blood is the next installment in the Fae Guardians series, and the first in the Season of the Vampire trilogy. Each book features a separate couple with a satisfying HEA, but to enjoy the full benefits of the over arching plot, start the Fae Guardian journey with book one of Fae Guardians: Season of the Wolf.

This is part of the overall series but the first of 3 I believe of the Vampires. The first 3 followed the wolves. This is about Voilet and Indigo.

Unlike the first 3 ladies Voilet was woken 6 years before them, found herself in a strange new world with no idea how she got there. She meets peaches and silver with a violent introduction saving herself and them from vampires drunk and obsessed with their blood. They decide for safety's sake its best to part ways so they are not easily found. All of them are links to the nuclear winter that killed the earth as they knew it.

Violet having been ravaged by vampires decides to protect herself. She damages her ears in places so she's not seen as human, she assimilates into the Fae world, Killing any vampires that discover her addicting blood. Then she's found by Indigo, a vampire who having tasted 'well blessed' blood is now addicted to the taste, making all other sorts of blood taste bland. He literally comes crashing into her life and saves her. He forces her to see that not all vampires are the same and that they are mated and what that means. He also gets her to face her fears and what she needs to do to become the powerful human that she should be.

I loved this book. Violet is one hell of a strong female but she only realises how devastating her power could be at the end of the book. If you've loved the 1st 3 you will love this one.

again another good listen

After a little while I stopped listening. It became a bit boring and the characters lacked depth..
