Max Bellmore reprises his role as the narrator of this book from the previous ones. He has an excellent voice with a good pitch that he adjusts for each character. It is very to recognize different characters just by the change in his voice. He keeps us thoroughly entertained till the very end.

Reyes is forbidden to know pleasure because he is bound to the demon of pain. He is no more than a man possessed. Yet, it is craving for a mortal woman that he has to satisfy. That woman is Danika Ford and he will do anything to have her, even if he has to defy the gods and go against all odds.

Danika is on the run from the Lords of the Underworld. She can’t seem to forget the touch of Reyes who is haunting her dreams. Ultimately, a future together for them would spell doom for everything they hold dear.
