Prince Allen has trained his entire life to follow in the footsteps of his illustrious mother, who has made their kingdom one of the wealthiest and most influential in the empire. For the past few years he has trained to become the new consort of the High King. The only thing no one prepared him for was the stubborn, arrogant High King himself, who declares Allen useless and throws him out of court.

High King Sarrica is ruling an empire at war, and that war will grow exponentially worse if his carefully laid plans do not come to fruition. He's overwhelmed and needs help, as much as he hates to admit it, but it must be someone like his late consort: a soldier, someone who understands war, who is not unfamiliar with or afraid of the harsher elements of rule. What he doesn't need is the delicate, pretty little politician foisted on him right as everything goes wrong.

I loved this book so much that I spaced out listening to it just so it would last longer. If you love queer romance, excellent characterisation, pride-and-prejudice style romances, court intrigue, and protagonists with unusual skills, you're in the right place.

I appreciated, too, that it didn't whizz through the plot too fast; portions of the novel took the time to linger with characters I loved and shed a bit more light on the setting that I'd become interested in, but only once I cared about those things. There wasn't a single thing I didn't love about this book, and the narration is smooth and thoughtful.

Can't wait for the next one!

I loved the print version of this so I already knew the story. However, the audio really brings nuances of the difference characters to life that I hadn't really picked up on in the book before, such as Lesto's softer side and Sarrica's frustration. I am looking forward to rereading the book again to see if it feels any different - although it will still be a 5-star read for me.

Wonderful audio

I love my Kindle book of this story, and this audible book hasn't disappointed me!! Stellman is a great story teller. I could tell when different people were speaking, and he did so without over the top accent/ voice impersonations that often get on my nerves. I have fallen in love with all of the characters all over again, as Stellman conveyed their emotions really well. I was drawn in to Harken, and finished it in two days. This is something I am listening to again and again! Kudos to both Derr and Stellman! If you like fantasy and romance definitely give this story a go, I cannot recommend it enough :)

I adore this story....

there was nothing bad about the performance, the only thing was that every character had the same voice, so it was sometimes hard to follow the dialogue, but other than that it was amazing!

Story was super cute, too!!

It was great, very immersion story.
