Summary

The first book in the brand new Captive of Shadows Series.

Love. Joy. Anticipation. 

That’s what your wedding day is supposed to be filled with...but not mine. 

I’ve never seen my future husband or even heard his voice. I only know that long ago, my father made a vow, and now, I have to fulfill it. They say Kane is a monster, with sharp clawed hands and hoofed feet. They say he’s cruel, violent, and likely to kill me before the end of my first night. 

They say...a lot of things.

So when my future husband arrives to collect his debt, I’m terrified of the fate awaiting me.

But not everything is as it seems.

Yes, he is cruel - but he’s also complicated, seductive, and holding secrets of his own. And each day that passes, something wild and passionate stirs between us. Every look, every whisper, and I find myself falling further into the shadows. Not that I expected any different.

After all, my new husband is the King of the Underworld....

A Brand-New Series from author Bailey Dark...enter the dark, seductive world of Kane, Master of Shadows and King of the Underworld. If you loved the Mated to the Fae King series, get ready for your new obsession! 

SCROLL UP TO SNAG YOUR NEXT BOOK BOYFRIEND!

Dark secrets

Briar's idea about being married off are naïve and romantic as nurtured by her father and sisters, now living in a different world she has to find her way to what she hoped would be her happy ever after but her soon to be husband is anything but interested or nice to her. We find out that everyone has secrets but we will have to continue listening to the next instalment to find out as we are just given glimpses...
The narrator has a pleasant voice but the narration was far to quick for me, it didn't give me a chance to fully take in the story before we were onto the next chapter.

Even better the 2nd time round

I absolutely loved reading this book and listening to it the second time around was even better. Izzy did an amazing job bringing the characters to life. Love the sorry and the tension. I can't wait for the second installment to come to audible.
