About this listen
A sweeping six-book urban fantasy series that will have you devouring the pages like a bloodlust-fevered vampire drinking from the vein.
An unearthed magical stone that will change the world.
A supernatural secret society prepared to defend it.
And adversaries who want to burn civilization to the ground.
In a job gone wrong, thief Meredith Stone, discovers the long-lost Pearl of Hell, thereby unleashing a magical awakening felt around the globe.
When Tobias, a vampire member of a dark-artifact hunting secret society, finds Meredith, the Pearl is long gone.
However, all is not lost.
Meredith is more than what she seems: a witch of lore.
A seeker.
And a pain in Tobias’s fangs. A PITF he is charged to protect.
The duo is tasked with recovering the Pearl of Hell. The problem? Well, other than the fact that the Pearl of Hell, a legendary lapis caelesti famed for spurring madness and chaos, seems to have vanished into thin air?
Tobias is experiencing bloodlust for the first time in over a century. Bloodlust for her.
This series is a complete, progressively spicier urban fantasy series with multiple POVs, three featured M/F romances, deadly enemies, and sky-high stakes. If you like the found family aspect of Vampire Diaries, the slow burn and intense romance of the Fever series, and the action of Supernatural, you’ll love the Coven of Shadows and Secrets Series.
Series Tropes:
Dark artifact hunters/secret societies
Demon hunters
Slow burn spicy romance
Soulmates
Grumpy x Sassy
Forbidden love
Found family
Shifters/vampires/witches/fae/mages

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 81
The auction block awaits, and a vicious vampire prince wants me and what flows through my veins. So I make a run for it, only to end up falling at the feet of a fae warden. Technically, Roar, the Warden of the West, should return me to the vampire court, but he has other ideas. He needs a fake fiancée. The deal: if I play his dutiful partner at the Winter Court and help him trick the cold King of Winter, Roar will hide me from the blood-suckers intent on draining the life from me. I agree, and for a while, it seems like nothing can go wrong. That is until Vale sets his sights on me.

Agenor, Lord Protector of the Fae Isles and right hand of the Mother herself, doesn’t expect anything to still surprise him after twelve centuries of life. Finding a taunting note from an anonymous thief in his wardrobe is enough to rouse his curiosity, though. Enough to do the unthinkable—write back.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 79
On the day of my twentieth birthday, a brutally handsome Shadow Fae darkens my doorway and whisks me away to an elite Fae academy. The problem is I'm not Fae, and I certainly don't have any magical powers. Despite this, I'm thrust into a realm where magic is as vital as breath and far more dangerous. Thrown into an academy teeming with powerful Fae, I must navigate the treacherous waters of magical education, summon my dormant powers, and battle merciless fellow students to prepare to face the rival Arcanum Citadel across the river.

I’m one placement away from becoming a fully fledged London detective. It’s bad enough that my last assignment before I qualify is with Supernatural Squad. But that’s nothing compared to what happens next. Brutally murdered by an unknown assailant, I wake up 12 hours later in the morgue - and I’m very much alive. I don’t know how or why it happened. I don’t know who killed me. All I know is that they might try again.

I'm not your average girl. My best friend is my switchblade. My favorite hobby is using it on the cruel, the abusive, and anyone who gets on my bad side. I'm a convicted murderer with a chip on my shoulder and a dangerous lack of restraint. And then there's Zak. His rap sheet makes mine look tame. The bounty on his head is worth more money than I'll ever make, and the deadly fae that shadow his every step wield more power than I'll ever know. He's the Crystal Druid, and his first mistake was setting foot on my turf. His second was saving my life.

My father called them messengers. He once told me they walked among us and that somewhere in this dark and godless city, there shined a faint sliver of hope. I had only to look for the signs. Well, I’ve spent my whole life investigating the inexplicable and all I've found are the unsettling vestiges of iniquity—the evidence of another world shrouded by the obscure. Purgatory to some, where depravity hides in shadows, and girls like me are little more than delicious bites of temptation. Others call it Nightshade.

I was fifteen when the Death King came for us. With a mighty black dragon and the ability to command the dead, he raised an army of our fallen soldiers to fight for him—and conquered us in the night. My father, King Laurier of Scorpion Valley, couldn’t stop him. I tried to flee but came face to face with the man in black armor, the man who looked more like a god than a human. Instead of killing me, he chose to show me mercy… but it didn’t feel like mercy. Not when the next ten years of my life are spent as a slave in the Arid Sands, digging for Black Diamonds from sunrise to sunset.
