About this listen
She’s been taken against her will....
The colonel, Maxim, is the ruler of the ruins in what used to be New York. After a post-apocalyptic event, nothing is, and will never be, the same. He rules with an iron fist and has the final say in all things. He takes what he wants when he wants. Now is the time for him to take Iolanthe. He’s watched her from afar for years; now she will belong to him.
Iolanthe has grown up homeless on the streets with her mother as her only companion. It’s been a dangerous life, to say the least. The fact that she is a Pure only complicates matters, and has been her most guarded secret. Her mother’s warnings are always in her mind. But, now her mother is dead, and she’s been taken by the colonel. What will happen now?
This is book one in the Colonel’s Conquest series and includes a sneak peek at book two.
Publisher’s Note: This dark dystopian romance is not a wine-and-flowers romance. It’s a journey of discovery by the hero and heroine with all the rough edges exposed. Take the journey if you dare. You’ll be glad you did. This sci-fi story contains elements of danger, suspense, mystery, power exchange, non-consent, adult themes, and possible triggers.

Story
With just one touch, bread turns into roses. With just one bite, cheese turns into lilies. There’s a famine plaguing the land, and Princess Yzabel is wasting food simply by trying to eat. Before she can even swallow, her magic - her curse - has turned her meal into a bouquet. She’s on the verge of starving, which only reminds her that the people of Portugal have been enduring the same pain for years. If only it were possible to reverse her magic. Fatyan, a beautiful Enchanted Moura, is the only one who can help. But she is trapped by magical binds.

Story
Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.

I never wanted a wife. No one is safe with me. No one is good enough for my daughter. But if I want to rule over the wealthiest crime family in New York City, I only have two weeks to find one. When Elsie broke into my home, I saw an opportunity, so I forced her into a marriage she didn't want. No one crosses me, not even someone as beautiful as Elsie. She may fight me with that smart mouth, but she will obey me–or return to the hell she came from.

For 18 years I've suffered at the hands of the Hunters. They've done their best to break me, to tear me open and unleash the terrifying monster that lives within. Until the day they go too far. When a desperate escape leads to another brush with death, I'm forced to place my trust in the hands of four formidable strangers. Wild and untamed, their feral natures call to me, their warrior hearts make mine come alive. And when they offer me a place to stay while I heal, I can't say no. But the secrets I carry are deadly, and my past is a twisted, evil nightmare better left forgotten.

Get the audiobook! Good Narrator
I don't understand the mixed reviews the book isn't bad. It was a good story, I think people are just afraid to give an honest review. The narrator did a good job acting out the book and doing the male voices. The characters were believable and I would listen to her narrate again. I liked it and gave her 5 stars.
There are some spots in the book that seem overly violent, but I think the Author was trying to build the world. It's not a nice place or time to live and we see that as we read. There are definitely some triggers in this book, but it reminds me of "A Handmaids Tale" compared to that show, this book is tame.
Finally, I think the Author wants us to hate Maxim in the beginning and then (WOW big reveal-we learn why he wants her and then suddenly he's not so bad). The book does end on a cliff-hanger, which isn't a big deal because the next book is already out. I'm just upset since the next audiobook isn't out yet, hopefully I don't have to wait too long.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
