A reluctant con artist and a professor with too many secrets are bound together in Ali Hazelwood’s intoxicating new dark academia romance—available only in audio!

Veronica “Vero” Mercer grew up with grifters for parents, and she knows her way around a con. When grad school bills pile up and her friends are in trouble, she turns her art history skills into a forgery side hustle.

It’s supposed to be a short term deal, but her work draws the attention of Dr. Viktor Ashworth, a reserved, very British professor. Instead of turning her in, Ashworth kidnaps her—politely—and makes an unusual offer: forge a mysterious ancient manuscript for him.

Soon Vero finds herself spending long nights with Viktor, bent over rare vellum samples and obscure inks. But as the con grows riskier, Vero has to wonder: what does Viktor really want, and why can’t she stay away?

Despite the story sounding a bit rushed towards the end I really enjoyed Vero and Viktor together. Knowing that everyone knew how much he was in love with her and she actually suspecting it was refreshing.
The plot twists had me gasping, they all caught me by surprise

Such a comfort listen

I hated the male British accent. It sounded like the educational material from when I was learning English in school. I like the story and the characters though

Good story but the fake British accent ruined it
