About this listen
A rebellious princess. A cursed rogue. A forbidden love that will bring a kingdom to its knees.
As niece of the king, Elise Lysander cares about two things: sneaking into gambling dens, and avoiding an advantageous marriage at all costs.
When her uncle holds the life of her deathly ill father over her head, reluctantly, Elise puts her fate into the hands of Legion Grey, the handsome and mysterious dowry negotiator. He may be arrogant and infuriating, but soon Legion incites a blistering, forbidden passion she can’t ignore.
As their attraction grows, so do the dangers: attacks from black-eyed people, a cursed enemy who is more beast than man, and rumors of fae returning for the crown they believe was stolen from them long ago.
After a bloody coup upends the kingdom, Elise flees with Legion, but nothing is as it seems. The man she allowed into her heart reveals his own secret plans with the return of magic—and he has every intention of using Elise to see them through.
With war between magic and mortal on the horizon, Elise must pick a side to protect her kingdom. Does she stand with her people who stole the throne? Or with a man who lied his way into her heart and whose secret past could bring her destruction?
Filled with luscious world building, banter-filled romance, and epic battles, Curse of Shadows and Thorns is the first book in The Broken Kingdoms series.

Great story, thrilling romance
Although the world building at the start was a tad confusing, this is a great story of magic and darkness and love. I love the whole Broken Kingdoms series.

Utterly loved this, finished in less than 1day
Sometimes books do not transfer well to Audio, I found this to be so for the 1st few chapters. It's like actually reading let's you fall straight into this new fantastic world and their people. I love Stina Neilson, she is up there with my favourite female narrators, she is so brillant with pulling you in and having believable voices for all characters, including male. I had to listen to the 1 st 4 or so chapters twice, by I was in, hook line n sinker! Amazing world, fabulous characters, I'm sorry to say 100% predictable, very little took me by surprise, but the magic, world building and character nuances made the predictability so worth it, and it is YA Fantasy and I'm a granny so I guess I'm very good at guessing what's to come in some YA stories. I fell in love with the main characters and am heading off to start Book 2, look out for my review!

good listen
It did get a but slow there for a bit but the ending was great and worth the wait. I suppose there is A lot of world building happening and a lot of descriptions for us to understand that world.
I would recommend 👍

Vibes of FBAA yet stands on its own💘
So this book had similarities to Blood and Ash by Jennifer L Armentrout though it stands on it's own as a different story and book of it's own! The last few hours shaped how it and I am really looking forward to book 2!! I soo love the all the characters and am looking forward to seeing where things go!!! The world building is great!!bI think this is a good beginning to what will be an outstanding!!
Stina Nielsen did a pretty great job narrating the story!
It is a bit slow going but give it a go....

Interesting storyline but lacked intrigue
I enjoyed the book but I was left wanting more. She trained as a warrior at the start. And they called her a warrior throughout, but the demonstration of her strength was lacking
