Door of Bruises

Thornchapel, Book 4

De: Sierra Simone

Narrado por: Zachary Webber, Oscar Reyes, Wesleigh Siobhan, Alyssa Avery, Emma Roya

Twelve years ago, I left Thornchapel—and the two boys I gave my heart to—behind. And now I’ve returned, hopeful... and wary. Because it's so very easy to be drawn back into the world of the seductive and elegant Auden Guest... and into the world of his worst enemy, St. Sebastian Martinez.

The beautiful and brooding St. Sebastian is as irresistible as he ever was, and Auden is just as handsome and arrogant, and the three of us can't seem to unknot ourselves from each other. From the hasty promise we three made all those years ago.

As Thornchapel slowly tightens its coil of truths and lies around us, our reluctant threesome starts unravelling into filthy, holy pleasure and pain. Together we've awakened a centuries-old fate that will either bloom like a rose... or destroy us all.

From the author of the USA Today bestselling New Camelot series comes a gothic, dark academia fairy tale full of lantern-lit rituals, foggy moors, and obsessions that last for lifetimes...A Lesson in Thorns is the first book in the Thornchapel Quartet.

Incomparable.

This author never disappoints. I’ve read 100’s of romances and nothing about this story is predictable or follows the normal pattern of your average romance.

Everything about this series is so intensely real. You can feel the breeze in the air when she writes of it.
You see what the characters must see, feel what the characters must feel, experiencing their joys and their grief almost as if it were your own, because the written imagery is that intensely provocative.
This series tells an incredibly powerful story written by an incredibly talented story teller.

FUDDDDGGGGEE

This story, was amazing. So many levels and parts. I am legit in Book hangover right now.

I'm drunk on Thornchapel!

I was dragging my feet to start book 3... but I am so glad I did. That's not to say I didn't love the first two books, I did. But I did not know just how much this series was going to make me feel. Such a rich story with endless layers. The spicy scenes get more frequent as the books progress (love that,) and I got so invested in these characters, I felt like they were my friends and lovers, too.
The narration is on point.
Sierra Simone is the best at what she does: spicy stories that make your toes curl and butterflies flutter from your body.

Awesome ending

I couldn’t have imagined a better ending to this series. Of course, it is filled with gratuitous spicy details, but the love stories are also so encouraging and realistic.

Another wonderful book from Sierra Simone

this series is wonderful and magical with such depth!! I am in love with the world of Fern Chapel. Sierra Simones books have been very healing and liberating for me.

All Wrapped Up!

Wonderful group of Narrators lead by Zachary Webber answering the mysteries of Thorn Chapel. True Sierra Simone angst.

Stunning listen! Sierra never disappoints.

The Queen does not disappoint! The Thornchapel series was everything I needed. Happy that everyone got their HEA. Sad to leave the world of Aiden, Poe, San Sebastián, Beckett, Rebecca & Delphine. Amazing narration by Zachary Webber, Oscar Reyes, Wesleigh Siobhan, Alyssa Avery & Emma Roya.

The end was worth going through 4 books!

I almost abandoned this series but the way she wove snd developed the characters and plot came full circle! If you like thrill and suspense with your smut, with poly, mmc, etc. in your story, plus kink, then this series is for you!

I love everything except Proserpina

I was excited to see Zachary Webber back to voice Auden & Beckett, and I felt the new guy for Saint Sebastian was a strong replacement (unlike book 3).

But DEAR GOD, did no one ask the woman voicing Proserpina to audition by at least saying the character’s name? She is so nasally and awkward — it’s like nails on a chalkboard. I finally had to borrow the book from my library so I could skip the chapters she narrated and just pick up when it’s other characters. It was so bad I almost returned the book, but the solution of reading the Poe chapters was an awkward compromise.

A Great Finale

I’ve enjoyed this series so much. It wasn’t all spice like other Books of Sierras, but the story was all encompassing. I could barely put it down over the past few days. The ending is worth it, even though it breaks your heart.
