About this listen

 A spellbinding dark dystopian fantasy trilogy from hugely popular dark romance author Nicci Harris, where young Aster is sworn to be a servant to the ruthless half-human King Rome, but when the king becomes obsessed with this ordinary girl, it could lead to war.

Young Aster is no different. If selected, she will be the King’s Silk Girl. A common human bred to adore and pleasure him, and to provide the Cradle with healthy babies for the Trade.

Adore. Pleasure. Provide.
That is her meaningful purpose.

But King Rome is more monster than man. As the heir of the genetically enhanced breed, he was designed to survive and rule this harsh new world. Through fear. Through intimidation. Rome has a heart as black as his giant pet eagle’s wings and a singular obsession—to reign.

That stands until one day Aster puts her tiny human hand in his...

Now she occupies his mind...

But the Trade upholds that love is not a virtue, and instead, a weakness. Nothing could be more dangerous to the regime than having its merciless king obsessed with a common girl born for Silk. Dark Fantasy Fantasy Royalty Rome

I freaking loved this! First two of my favourite narrators did what they do best! Second Nicci this was such a great first book in a new series! The world building wasn’t dumped on you it was effortlessly written and easy to digest. It took me a bit to warm up to the MMC but when I did he was everything. The side characters were also amazing and honestly this book series could go on forever giving all the side characters a book.

Nicci you are a genius
