About this listen

Are you an ash?

Increased stamina....

Lack of appetite....

Anger outbursts....

Insatiable thirst....

Beauty and strength....

Male....

Call the hotline if these symptoms come on suddenly!

Turns out Charlie Bennet was all of those things except the last. Don't let the name fool you, Charlie was all woman, and she wanted nothing to do with the ash...until the day she found out she was one.

It all started when infected bats bit a small group of humans and created what are now called vampires. Then, the male vampires knocked up some female humans, and the result was a gorgeous race of all male ash - superhuman freaks that had looks to kill.

Charlie is the first female ash, aka unicorn of the Hive - the gated compound in Portland that the humans have designated to isolate vampires and ash from society.

Problem? The Hive is full, and only a select few will be allowed to live there. To live at all, really. If Charlie wants to earn the right to become a citizen of the Hive, she will have to survive the culling - a series of fights to the death. And guess what? Just because she's a girl doesn't mean she'll get special treatment.

Good thing there's Ryder, the mysterious lead ash enforcer, who seems to always have her back. But when secrets bubble to the surface, it will take more than one guy to save her.

Recommended for ages 17+ due to language.

would listen to again

great book, but have to agree with another comment on perhaps using some more advanced language, very 13 year old basic sometimes.

Thrilling action packed

The story is refreshing and suspenseful that grips you and makes you hold your breath and sigh at same time, it has a sexy witty and kick ass heroine and a hot dangerous and wickedly delicious a swoon worthy protagonist and the end is a jaw dropping twist and sets for a thrilling sequel. I love Dara Rosengerg she is magnificent narrator, she portrays all the characters uniquely. X

Great story!

This is a really good story, but sadly it is full of stops, and I mean the book stops dead and you have to keep restarting it, hoping all the time it will start again in the same place it stopped. This happens so often that you get fed up with it, but you just keep trying to keep up with it. So quite off putting in the long run.

Good story, ok pdrformance

the book seems pretty Ok, although I did zone out a few times. The narrative was great with voices but as she was telling the story I felt like I was listening to a first time performer. some excitement and human emotions would have made this book a lot better
