About this listen
Katherine Woodrow is fey, and all she wants is to graduate from the Institute of Magic. But when the prejudiced mortal council threaten her position at the institute, she is left with only one option: accept a Mage Partnership with the elusive Lord Blackthorn.
Emrys Blackthorn is a riddle Kat is fearful of solving. The mysterious, cursed war hero with his stormy eyes and unpredictable ways leaves Kat with more questions than answers. What she does know is that she is irresistibly drawn to him . . . no matter how forbidden it might be.
When a string of murders and fey disappearances herald the return of dark magic, Kat and Emrys are thrown into a world of ancient books that hide hideous monsters, dark fiends who play with nightmares and mortal men who wish nothing more than to see them both burn.
But what haunts them both are secrets even ghosts dare not whisper, while insidious shadows lick their teeth and sharpen their claws, waiting for the moment that all tales will come to light - even the monstrous ones.©2024 Jennifer Delaney (P)2024 Orion Publishing Group Limited

This book is a Jane Eyre inspired, demonic dark academia, gothic fantasy and absolutely a book you need to read!
There’s an intricate and unique world and magic system to get lost in as well as a slow burn forbidden romance that will have you curling your toes in anticipation.
Considering she is magical and fey, I found Kat to be super relatable and endearing. She’s strong, tenacious and intellectual. And would NEVER belittle her self or her achievements for the sake of a man. I adored the feral female friendship she has with Alma and once again found this super relatable. She is 100% the ‘talk to me, I’ll talk back friend’
Emrys was dark and broody but full of swoon and satire. We love a man who will do anything to support the FMC without being threatened by her power! The side characters and found family were well written and engaging, you really felt like one of the team whilst the world was falling apart! 😅
Possibly my fave side character was the house though. Honestly the comedy value of a sentient house trying to force Kat & Emrys together had me howling. Think more gothic and cheeky Casita from Encanto and you’ll be halfway there!
I will say that cliff hanger was absolutely BRUTAL and I have still not forgiven Jen for that. I immediately popped up in her DMs to express my distraughtness. No word of a lie I believe the tag line for book 2 will say- “sent me to therapy”.
Honestly you should read this book! Especially this autumn as it is the PERFECT fit for it.
I really think this would’ve benefited from a duet narration
