About this listen

All Reia ever wanted was freedom.

Known as a harbinger of bad omens and blamed for Demons eating her family, Reia is shunned by her entire village. When the next offering is due and the monstrous Duskwalker is seen heading their way, her village offers her an impossible choice—be thrown into the prison cells or allow herself to be sacrificed to a faceless monster.

However, he is not what he seems. His skull face and glow eyes are ethereal, and she finds herself unwittingly enchanted by him.

All Orpheus ever wanted was a companion.

Each decade, in exchange for a protection ward from the Demons that terrorize the world, Orpheus takes a human offering to the Veil—the place he lives and the home of Demons. The brief companionship does little to ease his loneliness, and their lives were always, unfortunately, cut short.

He'd thought it was a hopeless endeavor, until he met her. She’s not afraid of him, and his insatiable desire deepens within every moment of her presence.

But will Orpheus be able to convince Reia to stay before she’s lost to him forever?

Great introduction to monster romance

This is one of the first monster romance books I tackled and I'm so glad I was recommended the audio version as the narrators are both brilliant, the sultry voice of the MMC Orpheus is so good and FMC Reia's narrator really brought her to life for me.

The overall story was fantastic, starting off with a virgin sacrifice to the "monster" I was intrigued by the world building and overall story. The slow burn romance and spice between the two main characters was top notch. Orpheus is a gentle giant who just wants to be loved and will go to great lengths to protect Reiia while learning to give her autonomy. The second book continues on the overall story and continues the story of Nameless and is also highly recommended.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

Read the book and absolutely LOVED it. Unbeknownst to me, once I finished it with the biggest smile on my face, I found out there were more!!!

Followed her straight away, found out she’s a fellow Aussie (even better!) then found out it was an Audible book and was soooo excited.

The voice actors?!?! ABSOLUTELY PERFECT.

Love this book, onto the second whilst listening to this one. I am in love. Great bloody job to everyone! ❤️‍🔥

monster beauty & beast retelling

I'm a sucker for a beauty and the beast story and this one doesn't disappoint. Orpheus is a beautifully complex character with a monsterous body but a incredibly sweet and sensitive soul. The story is captivating and delicious with just the right amount of spice. Im hooked and need all of the books immediately! the voice actors are perfect for the characters and I'm obsessed with the deep gravelly voice of Orpheus. definitely recommend

If you love dark fantasy you must listen.

I really really enjoyed this book and hope that the rest of the series is recorded as well. The narration was some of the best I have heard and Wolfgang Milliken will haunt me in my dreams 😍 If the series is being recorded I hope they keep both narrators they work so well together. It does feel pretty close to the ancient Magus' bride so if you love the anime like I did you will love this book!! but it is a lot more adult-themed 10/10 would and will recommend it to my friends. I will impatiently waiting for book two to be recorded 😁

A Soul to Keep - A wonderful monster romance

The first book I ever read from Opal, now beautifully and amazingly portrayed in audio book. It's exactly how I imagined both characters to sound, and the emotions so beautifully portrayed had me laughing, crying, squealing, blushing and screaming from all the emotions.
Beautiful story, beautiful narration. I cannot fault anything of this story, ever.
