Publisher's summary

Cal and his brothers turned their backs on the family business over a hundred years ago. Hell is tired of waiting for them to return.

Cal

I’ve never wanted a relationship—especially not with a human. With my father demanding my return to Hell and a demon leaving dead bodies in my bookshop, now is not the time to lose my heart.

One look in Oscar’s broken eyes, and I know I’m in trouble. Oscar’s been hurt before, and everything in me screams to keep him safe. How can I do that when I know being with me will only put him in more danger?

More importantly, am I strong enough to walk away from him?

Oscar

After escaping my last relationship with broken bones and an anxiety disorder, I’m tired of living half a life. My world revolves around my classroom, flat, and best friend. When fate throws Cal in my path, he seems too good to be true. He looks like he’s been pulled from my fantasies, and my baggage doesn’t scare him. Ok, so there’s the tiny issue of him being a demon, but I’ve dealt with far scarier.

I’ve been broken once before, and I don’t think I’d survive it again. Can I let down my barriers enough to let Cal in?

Devil’s Mark is the first in The Reckless Damned series but can be enjoyed as a standalone. It contains mature content.

Love this story!

What a great story. I couldn't stop listening the audiobook. The characters were engaging and was the secondary characters.

Damn this was good!

Immediately sucked into this. Literally bought the rest of the series even before I finished the first book.
A captivating series that you will no doubt become addicted to.
One hiccup though, I can’t get on with Dan Calley’s narration, Joel Leslie is a fave of mine and he absolutely through it out the park, but Calley just didn’t do it for me. Maybe it was the accent I don’t know but no bueno. I still loved the book though and I could easily ignore it. Maybe his narration will wear on me eventually. . We’ll see.
3.5/🌶️🌶️🌶️

Heartwarming

I not only loved the storyline, I've thoroughly enjoyed the voice actors. This was well worth the time and money. I'm definitely listening to the next book in this series.

Love

I really enjoyed this book, but the man that voiced Oscar’s chapters… I wasn’t a fan. He quite often took me out of the story and made me wince.

LOVE

I loved the audio as much as I loved the book! This series is one of my favorites ❤️❤️❤️

LOVE

Awesome read. I was sure about ethe supernatural theme but I’m glad I continued listening. This book was just great

Just fun

Light and fun daemon mates. What’s not to love? Right mix of spicy and sentimental

loved it - wish for just one narrator

I really enjoyed this story! it was so well done, and pulled me right in. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the dual narration. Joel Lesley did an amazing job as usual and I wish he'd just narrated the entire book; the other narrator just didn't do as good of a job and sounded monotone in comparison. But I was able to get past it eventually, and really enjoyed the book.

The best of the best

Nothing can go wrong with a Lark Taylor novel narrated by these two men. I have lost count on why you should listen to this because it should be mandatory if you for a moment think you like the plot summary. I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH.

LOVED THIS BOOK

I am so excited after listening to book one of this series. Joel Leslie is one of my favorite narrators, and Dan Calley is a recent addition to my favorite list. This author is new to me, but excited to finish all four books in this series. Now on to book two. Highly recommend.
