Blood of Desiderium

The Divide, Book 1

By: Ali Stuebbe

Narrated by: Stella Hunter, Tor Thom

In the lands of Deyadrum, where every Fae possesses power, Princess Emma is the only one forced without. Confined in the walls of her palace by her father, she's desperate for a taste of freedom.

That is, until she discovers the truth: everything she thought she knew was a lie, for something evil plagues her lands-promising death and darkness.

A betrothal that tests her. A mysterious vigilante who teases her. A Dark Prince who doesn't trust her. And a phantom that invades her dreams.

Emma must try to escape her father's torturous grip as she journeys to find a way to save her people . . . and herself.

But Emma has dark secrets of her own. And a game she has to play.

Can she overcome her grief and fears to save her people before the darkness that lurks within consumes her? Just remember, even that which appears true may be deceiving.

Contains mature themes.

Amazing!

I was sucked into this story from the very beginning! After that ending, I’m running to get the 2nd book. Five stars!!!

Great read

I was pleasantly surprised. Was not sure by the write up if I would like this but I loved it so much will definitely read again

Not Bad

Fantasy romance, some spice, has some triggers for sensitive readers, was gripping and kept my attention, cliffhanger wasnt bad, continues into a second book. Sad it wasnt a not a duel narration, pleasant voices.

Captivating story!

My main gripe is that the female narrator took a lot of long and unnecessary pauses between words/sentences in the middle of paragraphs which completely took me out of the story.

Narrators Not complimentary

Still in the middle of the book but the male narrator throws everything off. There is no personality....its like he is just reading not living the part. Its giving Virtual Voice as opposed to a living feeling being. Its irritating.
