Nocticadia

De: Keri Lake

Narrado por: Aaron Shedlock, Stella Hunter

Mortui vivos docent. The dead teach the living.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me.

Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores.

And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Devryck Bramwell, known on campus as Doctor Death, is a brilliant pathologist in charge of the midnight lab. He's also my devastatingly handsome professor, who seems to loathe tenacious first-years like me. Except his dark and enigmatic gaze tells me all the ways he'd devour me if given the chance, and his stolen kisses burn my lips with forbidden jealousy.

I crave his authority.

He aches for redemption.

Together, we're toxic. Delicious fodder for the prying eyes hellbent on exhuming the rotted skeletons of our pasts.

For the dead have much to teach, and it's only a matter of time before Dracadia's most depraved secret is resurrected.

Nocticadia is a standalone dark academia tale of deadly secrets and forbidden love.

It was perfect

So poetic and gothic. I love a good age gap. Student and professor? HOT. Morally grey hot professor? HOT. FMC who handled. HOT. The vibes the spooky the twists the SPICE. The spice had me forgetting to breathe. I’m so so sad it’s over. I rarely reread but there’s so many details and info on the plot I can def reread just in case i missed anything. Loved everything about it and the narrators did amazing.

WOW!

The story line was so intriguing and the voice acting was amazing. Super great read!

Spicy Mindfu**k

A wild ride of twists & turns, angsty passion, and all the WTF?! moments you would expect from a Keri Lake story - this story was a spicy mindfv¢k and I didn’t want it to stop.

I amsolitely adored the audiobook narration! Stella Hunter & Aaron Shedlock are two of my favorite narrators - they always have a way of bringing characters to life in such a phenomenal way, making you feel like you are in the story and this one was no different!

Dr Death is drool worthy

Dr. Death is going to be hard to top for 2k24. The fmc was cool at first but became a whiny brat by the middle. The story was really good though. Highly recommend

Interesting dark romance!

I really enjoyed this Audiobook. The narrators are great! The story is gruesome at times, but very interesting and spicy. I liked the twist on a paranormal romance. Would highly recommend!

Soooo good

I will think about this book for a long time omg ! Definitely listening to it again !

Truly enjoyed

This book has been on my TBR for a while now and I want to kick myself for not reading this sooner. I read/listen to this book and I must say the narration was great! The voices managed the raw grittiness of this story. This book is everything I love about dark gothic romances: secret societies/unalivers/dark souls that have even darker passions.

Perfection

Absolutely loved every part of this book. The narrators were on point and not gonna lie I couldn’t stop listening and finished it in a day and a half. You won’t be disappointed. Smash!

Very interesting plot and the slow burn is delicious.

Yes, the forbidden romance is delectable, love the characters and the plot twists. narrative was fantastic. The medical descriptions got very intense, caution if you have a weak stomach because it was so well written you can visualize it.

10/10

Great story! I love a slow burn romance! I have to say, I have every intention to read all of Keri Lakes books after reading this one.
