A Curse of Blood & Stone(Fate of Wrath and Flame‪)‬

The narration of ACOBAS performed by Elizabeth Klett is outstanding! Her dexterous talent at capturing every character and giving them their own voice was overwhelmingly impressive. I simply love her work.

Romeria and Zander’s adventure continues in
A Curse of Blood and Stone. So if you haven’t read A Fate of Wrath and Flame, turn back now. This adult fantasy is filled with angst and action. If K.A. isn’t warming our hearts with this slow-burn romance , she’s tearing us down with betrayal and deception. There was so much to unpack in this book such as the introduction to several new characters, Romeria’s growing powers, and the upcoming war. I can hardly wait to get my hands on the next book.

I began this audiobook immediately after hitting stop on the first book in this series. This volume picks up immediately after the first book ends when the heroine finds herself and her hero with the rug pulled out from under her again. There is another change in circumstances, only now the heroine has even less people in her corner. Her evil twin had really made a mess of things for her and it is hard for almost everyone to believe that she is not personally guilty. To cap it off, she admits to the man she has fallen in love with that she had withheld information from him. To be fair, magic or not, the likelihood that he would have believed that she is actually a person from a different world was slim. What would he have done if he knew that she has skills that have been systematically eradicated from this world for centuries. His decision to abandon her whether physically or emotionally places a wedge between them that both of them struggle to keep in place. Despite the overwhelming draw they feel toward one another. This is a problem if a prophecy that requires both of them is to come to pass. They keep moving onward, learning more about themselves and the kingdom they are trying to protect, working things out as they go. No one expects what they find when they arrive at their destination, but it seems that everything will change again once they get there. I was again glued to this audiobook from the first word to the last. I had to force myself to hit pause to sleep! The book has all the feels along with an excellent fantasy story, a snarky heroine, and plenty of action to keep the listeners on our toes. Top that all off with the perfect narrator for this story. I am tapping my feet waiting for book three! If you are a paranormal/ fantasy romance junkie, you don’t want to miss this series. However there is plenty of hot, steamy chemistry between the main characters, so keep that in mind. I am voluntarily submitting this review after listening to an advanced complementary copy of this audiobook.

Listening to the 2nd book without hearing or reading the first book is a big mistake. Taking the L for that one, but I still like this plot twisting 2nd book. Loving it!
