Ill-Omened

The Cintamani Chronicles, Book 2

By: Shannon Reber

Narrated by: Susie Kinlock

Gabe Sheenan’s life changed the moment he was assigned to protect Samara Stavros. It was easy for him to see that Sam was innocent, not one who deserved to be struck down by the curse on the Stavros family. But Gabe is a slave...and he’s been sold.

His life has been turned inside out and now, he’s required to protect people he can’t stand. The Cintamani’s plan to take out every Stavros has now extended to reach Gabe’s new owners, who just happen to include Lydia Berengar.

Gabe needs to find a way to break the curse, though everything is stacked against him. Why was the Stavros family even cursed? Why has the Berengar family been cursed? Can Gabe figure out the mystery before one of them is struck down?

This audiobook entwines Gabe Sheenan and Sam Stavros’ story with that of Spencer Ezra from the Madison Meyer books. If you haven’t listened to those books, do so fast so you can keep up with what’s going on around Gabe!
