About this listen
Tazãr Bao, an expert Exorcist for the Guild of Magic, is about to have his world turned upside down. Yet again. When Tazãr enters a sanctuărium for the Mages to receive a restorative spiritual energy treatment, he is reunited with the last person he ever expected to encounter—an Alpha Demon, Inuel Morhh, the one who’d left Tazãr with a shattered heart two years prior. Can Tazãr find the strength to trust Inuel again? Can he forgive him? Will being thrown together in a place where they can’t revert to lies help them make sense of their past and build a future?
Where Exorcists Cannot Lie is a second chance, forced proximity romantasy that follows a petite Exorcist Mage and an Alpha Demon with a penchant for kittens.

Where Exorcists Cannot Lie is a second chance romance which adds a whole additional layer of fabulousness to this story. Super powerful.
The audio version of Where Exorcists Cannot Lie is beautifully performed by Rowan Scott.

Tazãr Bao, Exorcist for the Guild of Magic is sent to investigate the possibly illegal activities being carried out by Alpha Demon, Inuel Morhh. Tazãr is unprepared for the strength of the mutual attraction pulling them together, or for their magics to mesh together so perfectly; and even though he knows that Alpha Demons never commit – they don’t know how to – he allows himself to fall for the demon anyway.
We then jump forward two-and-a-half years to find an exhausted Taz heading for the month-long retreat mandated for his kind so he can rest and receive a restorative spiritual energy treatment before returning to his job. The sanctuărium for Mages is under a magical field that dampens its visitors’ magic and also means they cannot lie while they’re there. Taz is looking forward to the break – until he discovers that he is sharing quarters with none other than his former lover, Inuel. Taz has never really got over their breakup so the last thing he needs is to be stuck with the demon who broke his heart; but keeping his guard up is going to be hard, especially as the anti-lying spell causes pain every time he’s less than truthful.
I’m a fan of second-chance romances in general, because I really enjoy seeing the characters falling in love again and with the people they are now – but the short run-time of this one doesn’t allow for much development of anything in this story. We don’t get to see the original romance develop – the chapter where Taz and Inuel meet for the first time ends with them about to get busy and fades to black, and then there’s the two-and-a-half year time jump where we find Taz still bitter about their break-up, which is hard to credit without seeing that relationship develop and end. We’re just told it happened and are given minimal details, and although the reasons for the lack of detail are made clear by the end, it still makes it hard to understand why Taz is so upset and angry after more than two years.
And the second-chance romance is poorly served as well. When Taz arrives at the retreat, it’s to find Inuel seriously ill; he nurses him back to health and they proceed to live side-by-side fairly amicably, have a fair bit of sex and ‘poof!’ last minute explanation and forgiveness, The End.
I freely admit that this audiobook caught my eye because of Rowan Scott’s name on the cover. He did an incredible job with the narration in LJ Hayward’s Death and the Devil series (one of my all-time favourites) and I’ve been hoping for ages that he’d do some more audiobook work, so I was delighted at having the opportunity to listen to him again. His performance is excellent – well-paced and expressive with good vocal characterisations and clear differentiation so there’s never any confusion as to who is speaking in any given scene. The two leads are portrayed really well, the low huskiness of Inuel’s voice helping to depict him as physically imposing, while the higher-pitched, slightly clipped tones adopted for Taz work to show him as tightly wound with an underlying vulnerability he tries hard to hide. I really hope to see Mr. Scott’s name appearing on more m/m audiobooks!
In the end, I think I’d have enjoyed this story more had it been longer with more time for actual character and relationship development. The narration is great, but while Where Exorcists Cannot Lie has some really good bones, there isn’t enough meat on them.
Entertaining but rushed; narration is excellent

Being a novella, and a second chance romance, there is a lot that we don’t get to see on page. I thought that there could have been a little more show than tell with regards to the circumstances that had ended Tazãr and Inuel’s relationship.
I know this is connected to Kasia Bacon’s Order Universe, but I am not familiar with the other works or know if this will be a standalone. The epilogue is fantastic and sets up the possibility of future books with this pair which I think would be a lot of fun.
Rowan Scott is such a fantastic narrator, and I’m so happy to see him continue in the M/M space. I am definitely here for a fantasy world populated with aussie accents!
A charming novella, wonderfully narrated

And then I DID IT Again!!!
Got myself the audiobook ''Where Exorcists Cannot Lie" by Kasia Bacon, read by Rowan Scott. It is an amazing marriage of a story created by the author and combined with the narrator's voice, which gives us an incredible treat. It was like bread and butter, toast with jam, or wine and a good bar of chocolate, whatever culinary turns you on...fair to say it was a feast for my senses. I immersed myself in his voice, and the characters came to life exactly as I had imagined them. You will be transported to a world of magic, romance, and lots of humor and sex... lots of it. I couldn't recommend enough how much you will enjoy it.
An amazing story that will leave you wanting more!
