    About this audiobook

    Paedyn and Kai battle with duty and desire in this highly anticipated second installment in the sizzling and epic romantic fantasy trilogy that’s packed with spicy tension and edge-of-your-seat betrayal.

    The kingdom of Ilya is in turmoil…

    After surviving the Purging Trials, Ordinary-born Paedyn Gray has killed the King and kickstarted a Resistance throughout the land. Now she’s running from the one person she had wanted to run to.

    Kai Azer is now Ilya’s Enforcer, loyal to his brother Kitt, the new King. He has vowed to find Paedyn and bring her to justice.

    Across the deadly Scorches, and deep into the hostile city of Dor, Kai pursues the one person he wishes he didn’t have to. But in a city without Elites, the balance between the hunter and hunted shifts—and the battle between duty and desire is deadly.

    Editor's Note

    Fast-paced meets slow-burn…

    In the sequel to Roberts’ BookTok sensation “Powerless,” Paedyn Gray has accomplished the unthinkable. But sparking a revolution has unexpected consequences, turning the man Paedyn wants most into her enemy and deadly pursuer. Fast-paced action meets slow-burn romance in this YA romantasy that pits heart against obligation.

    Lauren Roberts

    When Lauren Roberts isn’t writing about fantasy worlds and bantering love interests, she can likely be found burrowed in bed reading about them. Lauren has lived in Michigan her whole life, making her very familiar with potholes, snow, and various lake activities. She has the hobbies of both a grandmother and a child, i.e., knitting, laser tag, hammocking, word searches, and coloring. She’s the author of Powerless, and she hopes to have the privilege of writing pretty words for the rest of her life. If you enjoy ranting, reading, and writing, Lauren can be found on both TikTok and Instagram @LaurenRobertsLibrary for your entertainment.

    • 5/5
      While I typically enjoy a bit of smut in my books I love love love these books. (Not so much the short one though) the narrators are fantastic. The romance is such a slow burn. Can’t get it out of my head. Can’t wait for the third in the series.

    • 5/5
      Oh my cliffhanger. She is an amazing author I can't wait for the next one
    • 4/5
      The book was wonderful. Intriguing, suspenseful, heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time... but the audio doesn't match the book. There are many errors. As if the narrators didn't have the final draft before recording.. many errors that didn't align with what's in the book. I tabbed every error I caught and marked them and in total there are at least 22 spots throughout the book that are completely off. Some of them, alter the timeline, some are complete sentences that are different..
    • 5/5
      ITS TOO SHORT AHHH!!!! I hope a third edition comes soon!
    • 5/5
      Absolutely fantastic so addictive and wonderfully amusing! I love great writing and that’s alllllll here!
