About this listen
I never planned on walking into Blackwood Academy with a target on my back, but that’s what happens when you’re a witch in a demon’s world.
They’re not just any demons. Vale is a ruthless bully determined to strip me of my power piece by piece. Nicodemus? He’s dangerously charming, a devil with a taste for chaos. Ares and Slade are the deadly twin opposites—one sweet, one cruel. And Zephyrus Storm is my professor and my ruin.
When they discover I’m carrying their child, everything changes. Desire turns to obsession, and they’ll stop at nothing to claim me and the baby. But I didn’t just make a mistake; I broke a law as old as time and crossbred two worlds that were never meant to meet.
Now everyone wants me dead—and the baby growing inside me.
Bound by desire. Hunted by fate. And a child that could end it all.

Story4 out of 5 stars 429
Meet Randi Burnett—she’s brilliant, she’s beautiful, and she works for the bride. Missing groom? Intoxicated in-laws? Crying ring-bearer? You name it, she wrangles it. Too bad her personal life isn’t thriving like her side gig as a bridesmaid for hire. Recently dumped, Randi throws herself into her biggest challenge yet when she’s hired as a maid of honor and pretend best friend for an ice queen bride. There’s just one problem—the best man is infuriating, overprotective, and anti-marriage.

Beckett: If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have. I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride. My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart.

For as long as I can remember, I've been the girl who didn't fit in, the girl who collapsed in the middle of class, just because my brain decided to turn on me. I can't really complain, though. We don't live in the Middle Ages, so I have yet to be subjected to an exorcism. I can get treatment for my condition. Epilepsy aside, I can mostly be a normal person and have a normal life. There's just one problem. I'm not a normal person. I never have been. And the first time I find this out is upon receiving an exclusive invitation to The Academy of the Devil.

Story is good, Virtual Voice ruins the experience
It had great potential but the virtual voice is as you would expect: Mispronounced words, and no inflection to denote characters. No actual voice acting is involved. At points, it was hard to determine who was speaking.

It was good but could have been great
I didn't mind the AI narration... some of it lacked the vocal nuances you'd get from a human but it was a far cry better then some of the narrators. The raunchy sex at the beginning of the story was fun and creative but then it fizzled out. The actual meat of the story was lacking grit. it was rushed over a 2 week period and you really didn't get character development. I wish they would have extended the time line and really let the characters relationships grow rather than the overnight flip flop. I'll keep going to see how book 2 is

Unique story
Although there was definitely some issues with the automated voice at the beginning, it either gets better or you learn to understand it. Didn’t prevent me from thorough enjoying the story. Can’t wait to see what comes next

A virtual experience like no other
Ok. Liked the virtual on this one. Had to play it at 1.35x speed so that it didn’t drag but otherwise, fantastic. Other virtual voice overs are horrendous.
Story ended at such a stupid place! It needed closure! So disappointed in the ending. There definitely was NOT an HEA

Not horrible not great
Why couldn't they do a male virtual voice on the male characters and a female on female chapters? Honestly if you're going to have eace chapter switch off you should consider it.
As for the story. I didn't realize it was JUST going to be a book about a future baby... I guess the next book is going to be 1 long ass Maury Povich episode... but I'm this far in might as well find out, "who da daddy?" Plot twist- I bet it's all 5 somehow

Do waste your time listening to this audiobook. The virtual voice sounds weird and the ending is a cliffhanger.
