The Four, Book 1

By: Layla Frost

Narrated by: Wen Ross, Desireé Ketchum

I was cursed.

It wasn't an exaggeration. It wasn't even dramatics—though I was prone to those. It was a fact. And a sucky one at that.

After inheriting my grandmother's home, I thought my luck had turned around. A fresh start in the one place where I'd found solace from my cruel father.

But I was cursed, remember? So rather than a quiet life, I faced mysteries, con artists, disastrous dates, stoned witches, magicks, and evil organizations out to do evil things. And a house that was haunted.

Only my ghost wasn't a creepy specter with rattling chains. Nor was it a murderous Victorian child. It wasn't even a comedic ghoul trying to scare me out of the house with a possessed singalong. That would be too easy.

My invisible squatter was snarky. Pop culture obsessed. Disconcertingly charming with a voice that was otherworldly hot.

And not actually a ghost. He wasn't completely human, either. But that was okay. Apparently, neither was I…

From USA Today bestselling author Layla Frost comes a twisty fantasy novel about fated mates, evil, and a spicy take on magicks. For mature listeners.

Great Narration For an Amazing Story

I loved this story the first time I read it...and quickly reread it. now to hear it come to life, it was the icing on the cake. the narrators did a great job bringing the story and characters to life.

What in the CLIFFHANGER!?!

Biggest cliffhanger in my mind! On to the next I go, because I must KNOW!!!!

A truly cute and hilarious romantasy.

This book had me howling with laughter! I really enjoyed this book. I only wish that we got a better explanation behind Hayden and Nate’s future. Felt like everything got cut off really quickly. I also wish this was duet… it’s hard to hear the FMC talk about how they love the MMC’s deep voice when the female performer’s male voice sounds like a pre pubescent boy. Feels… weird…

Still a wonderful book!

Raunchy, magical rom-com gold!

“Don’t underestimate the power of horniness!”
Hahahahah… I was not expecting that. This was like the exuberant cheesiness of I Dream of Jeannie mixed with the sex-on-the-brain cheekiness of Austin Powers mixed with the comedy of Ida-Mae in Ghost … but with modern-day bad-date struggles of a girl just trying to scratch that itch.

“I am the little engine that couldn’t get laid.”
Yup, this was next-level raunchy rom-com. It was juvenile. It was dirty. It was Hee.Lair.Ee.Ous!

“Ch8: Don’t Neglect the Meatballs.”
“Ch9: The Magic of Pushing it Real Good”
Ch16 “Iron Maiden and Rage Against the Peens”
This eventually folds in a magical mystery, allows Denny to scratch her itches, and introduces book 2’s couple. But, it’s less about the destination than the rom-com journey. And, bonus for the dirty, punny, pop-culture-y chapter headings. The lack of a bright orange cover with lollipops, pumpkins, and a huge lipstick smooch is almost criminal.

The rest of the series unravels into okay, mainly because the mystery and magic are merely window dressing for the romance, which loses comedy and picks up angst and drama with each new couple.

Outstanding

I loved this book.. not only was if romantic and heartfelt, it was also too funny. Very good read.
