The Order

De: TJ O'Shea

Narrado por: Jen Jayden

A smile, a dance, some flirtatious bante—and witty heiress Luciana Piccolo was swept off her feet. Literally.

When a mysterious, gorgeous woman whisks her onto the dance floor at her father's masquerade ball, Lucy is thrilled to break the shackles of her privileged but purposeless life. But when the same woman kidnaps her and whisks her to the hideout of the rebels fighting to topple the regime she's set to inherit, Lucy isn't thrilled to be actually shackled as a prisoner. She is forced to accompany her abductor—a laconic, rigid assassin named Taylor—across the war-torn regions of the former United States as Taylor carries out perilous assassinations and leads the growing rebel army.

Relying on each other to stay alive, the antagonistic spark between Lucy and Taylor smolders into an ardent flame. Secrets unravel and the stakes get fatally higher, as the battle between new love and old loyalty may prove more dangerous than the war they're trying to survive.

Excellent

I will say the same thing that nearly all the other reviews say...This book is truly excellent. If you are a fan of Sapphic books that have princesses, tyrants, warriors, and a dystopian-like world, you will give this book five stars, as I did.

Storyline!!!

I was addicted to this audio. I spent the day listening. I needed a queer storyline like this. Very Hunger Games. I hope TJ continues to write more!!

So so so good!

Absolutely incredible book. No notes. I loved every minute of it. Narrator did a great job. I cannot wait to see what this author releases next!!!

Captivating!!

This book is a true gem 💎 !! A very creatively different type of dystopian story in which the USA as we know it, no longer exists, though societal ails/evils of classism, wealth/poverty, corruption and abuse of power still persist. This book is both character and plot driven, with characters and dialogue and story all brought to life by the wonderful performance of Jen Jayden!! She was simply brilliant!
You will not be disappointed!!

Captivating

It started off a tad bit slow but was worth the wait. My heart strings were in such a clutch for a good portion of the book. I love the unexpectedness about it. You really grow a fondness of the characters and the ending is a nice supise.

Officially One of My Favorites

I didn't expect that much from this book. It ended up being a very pleasant surprise. The author created beautifully flawed but lovable characters. This is the first book in a while for me where I was captivated throughout the entire listen. I'm currently listening to it for the second time and I'm enjoying it just as much as the first time.

Slow burn that was actually worth it

Usually books can be cheesy or predictable but this book was a surprise it was a nice slow burn and even better character building. Also the jokes that were in the book did have me laughing most of the time other books that have characters say jokes aren’t really funny but I liked the humor of the characters and the jokes matched up perfectly with the characters. Also love the narrator

Soooo goooooood!!!!

This was such a goooood book!! Will definitely circle back in a couple of months because yes!
Well developed characters that held a good level of relatability while obvs doing stuff not so relatable...
The story/plot itself is immersive and engaging, the love story and emotional tension is definitely there burning slow, however its unironically bittersweet how it unfolds; how the storm seems to come before the calm...

1000% recommend.

Sooo good

Worth every minute, don’t think about it just listen. It’s a slow burn but worth it.

Pleasant Surprise

Went into the book not really expecting much. Was pleasantly surprised to find a well written story with lovable characters. This book had me grinning quite often. Will definitely be listening to it again in the future.
