Destiny and darkness collide in this romantic, sweeping new fantasy series from New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan.

Seventeen years ago, an eclipse cloaked the kingdom of Relhok in perpetual darkness. In the chaos, an evil chancellor murdered the king and queen and seized their throne. Luna, Relhok's lost princess, has been hiding in a tower ever since. Luna's survival depends on the world believing she is dead.

But that doesn't stop Luna from wanting more. When she meets Fowler, a mysterious archer braving the woods outside her tower, Luna is drawn to him despite the risk. When the tower is attacked, Luna and Fowler escape together. But this world of darkness is more treacherous than Luna ever realized.

With every threat stacked against them, Luna and Fowler find solace in each other. But with secrets still unspoken between them, falling in love might be their most dangerous journey yet.


*Audiobook provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review* 


Audio: Phoebe Strole and James Fouhey both do a really good job of bringing Luna and Fowler to life. The narration slowed in parts, but over all, it was an enjoyable listen.

Story: Fast paced, action packed and original, with a swoon-worthy romance, creepy characters and a heart-stopping ending. I thoroughly enjoyed this! And I'm going to need Book 2 like RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OMG WHAT DID YOU JUST DO TO ME, SOPHIE JORDAN?!
