Story
A naïve activist is hired by a corporate villain but doesn't realize it. Cue one awkward farce, a twisty puzzle, and the slowest of slow burns in this opposites-attract, ice queen romance. Nine years ago, aloof, icy Michelle Hastings chose career over love. She's now living with that choice as she rules a secret corporation catering to the rich and powerful. Enter Eden Lawless. The guileless activist finds it a bit weird being employed by a mystery organization to bring down a corrupt mayor. But, hey, she's up for a challenge. Much harder is getting her beautiful new boss out of her head.

After the death of her grandmother, reluctant heiress Madilyn Marak agrees to stay with her grandfather at the estate for the summer. There, she finds an old diary hidden in an antique desk in the attic—The Apple Diary—written by her great-grandmother Isabel. In there, she finds the love story of Isabel and Lorah, along with a photograph of the two young women from 1933. The diary, like the love affair, was short and brief, but rich and vivid enough for her to feel a true bond with the women despite the heartbreaking ending.

For solitary novelist Jorie Price, true love seems as fictional as the shape-shifting creatures she writes about in her paranormal romances. Griffin Westmore doesn't believe in love, either, but she's one of those not-so-fictional shape-shifters who secretly live among humans. When Jorie's writing gets uncomfortably close to the truth, Griffin is sent to investigate and, if necessary, kill the author to protect the secrets of her kind. But when Griffin unexpectedly finds herself drawn to Jorie, her world is turned upside down.

Publisher's Summary
Boston Homicide Detective Caitlin Reagan walks a razor's edge, propping up her life on emotional constructs designed to help her manage grueling PTSD. She keeps her mother, boyfriend, and work separated and controlled, all in service to one horrible, tragic act she committed amid the Iraq war.
But when the murder of a charity worker brings her face to face with the beautiful and charismatic philanthropist, Marcella Carson. Cait is unable to deny the attraction and finds everything she thought she knew about her world, her life, and her very identity called into question as Marcella draws Cait into her dark world.
Sliding inexorably into an unsuspected Boston subculture, where creatures of myth and nightmare struggle to survive in a world of fading magic and proliferating public surveillance, Cait must face down her inner demons, rediscover her lost past, and catch an undead serial killer.
In her first novel, Aoibh Wood explores a dark urban fantasy world through the eyes of a woman struggling to come to terms with Post Traumatic Stress, personal trust issues, and the belated realization that she is a lesbian. On the way, we meet a colorful cast of characters, from a Latino cowboy cop with a love of country music to a ruthless vampire assassin and a retired serpent goddess with a passion for science.
This book is intended for adult listeners. It contains scenes of an intimate sexual nature, as well as themes and depictions of violence, sexual assault, and death.

Action packed story
There was too much swearing that I thought was unnecessary. It made the detective sound juvenile when the book was anything but.

An enjoyable read worth your time and money!
The story was very well written. The ending was really effective to keep audience salivating for the next book.
It was an excellent choice to have Abby Craden narrate this book especially to trial a new writer.
Great story read by an amazing narrator makes it a more enjoyable experience.
Definitely worth your time and money!
Another bonus of just discovering this book is that the 2nd book is already available, so I didn’t have to wait for long to continue reading Cait Reagan’s story, and hoping it will also be available in Audible and narrated by Abby Craden. Because, why mess with a winning combination, anyway,

Finally a book that’s not the same old, same old.
Author and Story
I liked that I was being surprised by the characters in the book and that they seem more realistic then a lot of others are portrayed. Human, Fae or demon it showed that each character perceived that they were doing the right thing and making the hard choices from their point of view. It also underlined the fact that sometimes making unpopular choices is the right thing to do even if the consequences of those action are not popular. All of this is of course threaded through learning to be who you are meant to be and learning to forgive others for their trespasses. Romance, fantasy and violence all interwoven into a thoroughly enjoyable first book and a series I look forward to completing. An excellent book Aoibh Wood, I’m happy to say I’m an instant fan.
Performance
Abby Craden - an excellent choice and a job well done. Is there nothing this wonderful performer cannot do! I’m delighted to say I read this because of the narrator to begin with and now I also have high hopes for the Author and Series.
Do yourself a favour and listen to the many books Abbey has narrated, I’ve yet to come across one badly done.
