The Captive's Curse

Twilight Mages, Book 2

De: Eliot Grayson

Narrado por: Kirt Graves

Unwanted. Unloved. Unransomed. And unable to control his dawn magic by any other means…

At odds with his family and on the run, Lord Cyril is taken prisoner and held in a gloomy mountain fortress—which he brightens up quite a bit, thank you. His captor wants him to be quiet and not cause any trouble, but who cares? Cyril may need the mysterious highwayman to quell his dawn magic and keep him sane, but he's overbearing, sardonic, and unpleasant.

Mostly. Except when Cyril can't live without his touch, or his voice, or his rare smile…

Ser Enzo, a robber and (not quite) a gentleman, desperately wants his obnoxious, adorable, irritating, irresistible captive off his hands…and other parts. Lord Cyril's wanton, irrepressible, and worst of all—his family won't take him back. Enzo can't release him without being paid. It's against his principles.

But so is keeping his bewitching captive forever. Cyril may be his prisoner, but Enzo's dangerously close to losing his own freedom by falling under the mage's spell…

Kirt Graves is still one of my favorite narrators!

This reviews for the first and the second book. I like the premise of the story quite a bit. Both of the main mages in the stories are petulant brats, but I still loved them. Give it a try, with something narrated by Kirt Graves you can't go wrong!

Fantastic!

Gahhhh! I absolutely love this series and Kirt Graves makes this even better somehow! I cannot wait for the third one to come out and to hear him narrate it as well!

When Enemies Fall In Love...

Cyril and Enzo are a riot. Cyril is a difficult character to like in the beginning, but he grows and learns by the end. Enzo is amazingly patient with Cyril and does more than expected to keep his hostage safe. The story takes the premise seriously and it shows. It doesn't feel campy or flippant, dealing with the curse in a serious and thoughtful way. There is definitely humor, and the spice brings the heat and keeps the temperature high. The love felt a little forced in parts, but overall, it's a beautiful love story between two people who desperately need someone to care for. Graves' performance is the icing on the proverbial cake of this book, and his stellar narration just brings everything that much more life.

Exceptional

Kirk Graves brought Eliot Grayson’s beautiful story to light. An adventure and romance worth reading again and again

Adored this book

I enjoyed the first book in this series a lot so naturally, I listened to this as soon as I saw it came out. I absolutely adored this book. Some of my favorite characters ever written in fantasy. It was sweet, and funny, and hot. The narration is amazing, as it always is with Kirt Graves. Everyone who enjoys mm fantasy should give this series a shot!
