The Order

By: TJ O'Shea

Narrated by: Jen Jayden

A smile, a dance, some flirtatious bante—and witty heiress Luciana Piccolo was swept off her feet. Literally.

When a mysterious, gorgeous woman whisks her onto the dance floor at her father's masquerade ball, Lucy is thrilled to break the shackles of her privileged but purposeless life. But when the same woman kidnaps her and whisks her to the hideout of the rebels fighting to topple the regime she's set to inherit, Lucy isn't thrilled to be actually shackled as a prisoner. She is forced to accompany her abductor—a laconic, rigid assassin named Taylor—across the war-torn regions of the former United States as Taylor carries out perilous assassinations and leads the growing rebel army.

Relying on each other to stay alive, the antagonistic spark between Lucy and Taylor smolders into an ardent flame. Secrets unravel and the stakes get fatally higher, as the battle between new love and old loyalty may prove more dangerous than the war they're trying to survive.

Captivating

It started off a tad bit slow but was worth the wait. My heart strings were in such a clutch for a good portion of the book. I love the unexpectedness about it. You really grow a fondness of the characters and the ending is a nice supise.

Officially One of My Favorites

I didn't expect that much from this book. It ended up being a very pleasant surprise. The author created beautifully flawed but lovable characters. This is the first book in a while for me where I was captivated throughout the entire listen. I'm currently listening to it for the second time and I'm enjoying it just as much as the first time.

Excellent

I will say the same thing that nearly all the other reviews say...This book is truly excellent. If you are a fan of Sapphic books that have princesses, tyrants, warriors, and a dystopian-like world, you will give this book five stars, as I did.

Storyline!!!

I was addicted to this audio. I spent the day listening. I needed a queer storyline like this. Very Hunger Games. I hope TJ continues to write more!!

Slow burn that was actually worth it

Usually books can be cheesy or predictable but this book was a surprise it was a nice slow burn and even better character building. Also the jokes that were in the book did have me laughing most of the time other books that have characters say jokes aren’t really funny but I liked the humor of the characters and the jokes matched up perfectly with the characters. Also love the narrator
