Untainted

The Crystal Island Series, Book 1

By: Lilian T. James

Narrated by: Krys Janae

There were several things Vera was quite skilled at. Wielding a blade and pretending to be human were two of them. Following the rules and controlling her anger, were not.

Raised in the heart of the Matherin Empire, Vera spent most of her life forced to hide what she was, and what she could do. Until, one day, she foolishly confronts a strange male she spies tailing the Crown Prince.

Not only does the altercation not go as planned, but the male claims she possesses a power his people vitally need. He’s desperate to return home, and he refuses to leave without her.

Staying would give her a life she never thought she’d have, but leaving could provide her with the only chance to learn more about her past.

The more answers she uncovers about herself, the more questions arise—and nothing is adding up. Vera must decide what to do, not only with her life, but with the ancient power inside her.

Untainted

well I wasn't expecting that ending there. the ending was a big plot twist for me. but I have to be honest it make me want to listen to the next book. this book is really good you guys are going to enjoy it. I promise you. the narrator did a good job too.

Great start!

A very entertaining story and great start to this series! Narrator does a fantastic job with the characters and bringing this book to life. I can't wait to see what happens next in this series.

Absolutely Loved It

I fell in love with the characters immediately, and the spicy romance between the characters made me want to keep listening and not put it down. the narrators did a great job with the characters. It's worth every minute or your time!

really looking forward to book 2

loved this. everything was good. narration. story. the world she created. the sex scenes were good too. been a minute since I've actually listened to a book in the same genre as this that was as engaging as this one. super easy read. looking forward to more from this author. She seems to be new and an up and coming author. So far, I approve.

ehh I wouldn't buy it again

I bought the second one hoping it would get better. I almost never dislike the relationship between the love interests but I want her to dump him constantly. he calls her annoying and talks about wanting to hurt her. other than their "mating" bond there is no reason for the two to be together. he doesn't seem to like her in any meaningful way, just him being sexually attracted to her. I kind of hate this TBH. I hope she finds someone better but seeing as though I am halfway through book two, I don't think I will finish the series. it's just too disappointing. This is his long lost love and he spends most of his time being mean to her or teasing her. I just don't get why the author would think this is enjoyable.
