Story
Long ago, Requiem was plagued by war and abandoned by the gods but Death saved the suffering people, giving each soul a hundred years of immortality. With that grace, he also sent two Maidens. One of Life, for healing and comfort, and one of Death, the only person in the world with the ability to kill. Generations later, the Life Maiden is missing and Princess Deyanira is nothing more than a trained weapon. A hunter. A murderer wrenched into Death's dark court to have the name of her next victim seared onto her palm.

Of all the worlds and life they created, the gods favored their children the most. But with that favor came the fear that their Legacy would one day become too powerful and overthrow them. Devram was created. A realm hidden amongst the stars. The gods gave their Legacy the best of all the worlds, and then they left, a sworn agreement to never return and to never interfere.

I wasn't the type of girl who believed in fairytales, much less tales about faeries, but that changed the day the fae walked into my life. Staying away from my lakeside hometown was the plan, but Mom died suddenly. Dad said she suffered a stroke after she dug up one of the ancient Native American graves in our backyard. Creepy, I know. Creepier still, there was no corpse inside the old coffin, only fresh rose petals.

A marriage proposal from a deliciously handsome and wickedly charming prince sounds like a fairytale. But for a nerdy scientist with severe social anxiety, it's a horror story. Prince Torin O'Grady, with his mischievous blue eyes and cocky grin, is always in the spotlight. And he needs to marry me to inherit the crown. But we have nothing in common. He's a future king. And I'm perfectly happy slogging through mud in my work boots. So why can't I stop thinking about him?

There are three rules to surviving the Fae—and I'm about to break every single one. Rule #1. Never cross into Faerie. When I'm chased across the wicked border and caught by its reclusive ruler of the sky, the pretty trickster with a clever tongue offers me a deal. Rule #2: Never bargain with a Fae. But I don't have a choice. For thirteen days, I have to survive in his mountainous maze of sinister paths, deceptive stairways, and devious creatures. Refuse, and my sisters will suffer as punishment. Rule #3: Never fall for the enemy. I should have known my sexy captor wouldn't play fair.

Publisher's summary
DUET NARRATION WITH A BONUS CHAPTER!
SLEEPING BEAUTY x HADES & PERSEPHONE
Tarian Hadez—thirty-three, real estate mogul, mob lord, most eligible bachelor in New England, god. The god-part is an exaggeration. After all, if true deities existed, then the world would be a magical place, and it's really not. At least, my world isn't.
Calanthe Bloom. That's me. Twenty-four, college graduate drowning in debt, true crime addict, florist by default, single by design. Although not living my best life, I'm enthusiastically pursuing it. Especially, in my dreams, which, since a recent flower-delivery snafu, all feature none other than lethally private Tarian.
Oh, the things he does to me when I sleep.
Wickedly surreal.
Except . . . are they?
Enter a world of gods and monsters where dreams are made of flesh. My Dark Beast is a paranormal romance standalone brimming with spice and intrigue.
Content warning: strong language, sexually explicit scenes, graphic violence, Alzheimer's, alcohol drinking, abduction of an adult, addiction to "magical" drugs (off page), death of a loved one (off page).

There are three rules to surviving the Fae—and I'm about to break every single one. Rule #1. Never cross into Faerie. When I'm chased across the wicked border and caught by its reclusive ruler of the sky, the pretty trickster with a clever tongue offers me a deal. Rule #2: Never bargain with a Fae. But I don't have a choice. For thirteen days, I have to survive in his mountainous maze of sinister paths, deceptive stairways, and devious creatures. Refuse, and my sisters will suffer as punishment. Rule #3: Never fall for the enemy. I should have known my sexy captor wouldn't play fair.

Someone in Hollow Bridge wants to bring the stories to life, and they're not firing any warning shots. When rumors of someone wearing a Halloween mask surface, it isn't long before the first person is killed.

No one knows what happens up at Midnight Manor. The home of the Voss brothers sits like a sentinel looking down on our small town, remaining a mystery. The four brooding billionaires rarely leave the confines of the iron gates, fueling rumors that have existed for decades.

His outward beauty is just as I’d heard—it belies a predatory nature, irresistibly drawing me in.

Pro football might see me as their favorite underdog, but Madison Westfield would rather see me six feet under. My ex-best friend’s little sister has every reason to hate me. I took her boyfriend’s spot on this team, her brother might lose his too, and our short-lived engagement years ago is part of the reason our families are locked in a grudge match that has the whole league on edge. Ruining me would fix most of her problems, but she's stuck trying to work a PR miracle with my career instead.

No wrong moves. Those were the words the first boy I ever loved whispered in my ear on graduation weekend. Naively, I believed him. Now those three little words feel like a bad omen I can’t escape. Every move I’ve made since I returned to South Chapel hurts my ex-boyfriend, Greedy. But it’s for his benefit. That’s what I tell myself. Intentionally hurting him is for the best. It has to be. I said goodbye to the possibility of forever with him the moment my mom and his dad “introduced us” at their engagement dinner. Three years have passed, but that doesn’t matter to Greedy.

Calamity
My Dark Beast-Olivia Wildenstein
Narrated by Blair Thatcher and Zachary Johnson
Rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
Spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Narration 🎧🎧🎧🎧
This book was wild! I didn’t know how Olivia was going to cross a Hades/Persephone with Sleeping Beauty, but I’ll be damned…she did. Her world building is phenomenal. The mains get stuck in dreamland for a while and each time you go into a new dream it’s like a whole new world and the descriptions are incredible. And the story telling is just so so good. It is lengthy but honestly I don’t know what could have been eliminated. This was so good. Now I feel like I need to go back and reread it and I’ll probably pick up on so many things I missed the first time through.
The narration was so good. This is my first by these two narrators and I thought they did a stunning job. The narration style was interesting because it wasn’t completely in duet or completely in dual but it was like a mix of both.

I am already a huge fan of Olivia so when I saw thid audiobook I jumped at the chance and am thrilled that I did.
The narration was amazing! It's a combo style of duet and dual. Blair was phenomenal at changing her tone to match different characters. Zachary was such a perfect Tarian, his timbre made me melt anytime he spoke. They both made the spicy scenes jaw droppingly good.
The story really captivated me and I didn't want to stop listening. The dreamsharing setting was intriguing and I enjoyed how it played out. As always, I love Olivia's writing style and how she weaves these incredible tales. There are always comedic elements to break up the tension sometimes from the sassy FMC Calanthe. My favorite chapters were in Tarian's POV because how he thought and spoke just had me swooning.
Olivia knows how to write spice🔥Even though the scenes were brief, and they often got interrupted, the quality and steam factor were off the charts.
The world was one we already knew with a twist of immortal gods living in it as mafia-inspired families. The story had incredible mystery elements that kept me guessing. At times the family felt like they were on a soap opera and I ate it up and asked for more. The secrets and twists were nonstop! My mouth was agape the entire last third of the book as all the mysteries were revealed. I also wasn't sure that things were going to end well. Luckily for everyone, this book had a fabulous comeuppance with a perfect HEA.

Unique Urban Fantasy 🖤
My Dark Beast was perfection! A unique blend of mob vibes with paranormal romance, all in current times (I’m so sick of kingdoms and crowns anyway).
I couldn’t stop listening and kept trying to guess who abducted Tarian, while at the same time enjoyed their dream escapades so much.
I also love the fact that it’s a standalone, and the duet narration was a plus!

The narration made it even better!
The audiobook was available which prompted a re-read. This is even better while listening and is why I adjusted to 5⭐
We have duet narration and both narrators did a fantastic job. Highly recommend listening too!
I physically read the book, and this was my review below.
4 ⭐
2.5 🌶
The story is about Calanthe, she's helps run her family's flower shop. Her family has been through a lot but she's spunky, fun, but also has anxiety and second guesses herself. She knows of the infamous Hadez family, and she happen to run into the big man himself, Tarian.
She sees him as handsome, powerful, and gets about everything he's ever wanted. Scary because he may run a Mob... Until she is forced to get to know him under interesting circumstances.
This is a perfect dark paranormal romance between a human and a Mobster? God? I guess you will need to read to find out. 😜 Lots of banter, spice, magic, and thrilling twists that is based within the real world.
This spice is interesting, can we say fever dreams, wet dream ... I will leave it at that.

Fantastic
This book is everything. An amazing retelling of two beautiful stories. Hades and Presphone and Sleeping Beauty, and it's everything it didn't know I needed! I didn't want it to end.
The performance by Blair Thatcher and Zachary Johnson is beyond words of praise. It is phenomenal!!!

Delicious slow-burn
“A word of warning”—the runes on his biceps glitter as he brushes a kiss to the hollow of my collarbone—“you’ve awakened the beast, Calamity Darling, and beasts aren’t always gentle when they devour.”
I'm truly a romantasy girlie at heart and when I heard My Dark Beast was Hades + Persephone meets Sleeping Beauty, I couldn't start it soon enough...and let me tell you, Olivia truly never disappoints!
Read if you like:
- touch her and be *unalived*
- enemies to lovers
- forced proximity [forever a favorite of mine]
- grumpy x sunshine
- found family
- fated love
The art in the book is also not something that should be looked over, every detail is gorgous and I ordered the paperback becuase I needed it on my shelf!

Loved it.
A thrilling fusion of reverse Sleeping Beauty meets Hades & Persephone, with a mafia twist. The fast-paced story is filled with spicy scenes, immersing readers in a world where gods collide. The dream scenes were well done. Tarian Hadez and Calanthe Bloom's forbidden romance is captivating and I was eager to see how it all played out. The addition of the rune was fascinating. The story has a very unique premise and the way it seamlessly combines mythology with modern-day elements with mob/mafia twist was addictive.
The narrators, Blair Thatcher, and Zachary Johnson were divine. I loved their voices, tones and inflections used.
If you're looking for a standalone paranormal romance with a possessive character be sure to check this one out.

Wickedly good retelling
My Dark Beast is a wickedly good retelling of Hades and Persephone along with Sleeping Beauty. The unconventional and slow burn of Calanthe and Tarian’s relationship is fire. Filled with witty banter, twists, drama, fantasy and desire. Definitely one you don’t want to miss. Love the leads and supporting characters. Narration is on point.

fantastic narrators and thrilling story
I think these are some of the best narrators I have heard in a while. I know I'm always tentative about buying audiobooks because of some narrators in the past, But don't let that hold you back with this one.
The story is one that keeps you on the edge of your seat and the characters are so wonderfully described you feel as if they are one of your close friends.
