    A Soul to Keep

    About this audiobook

    All Reia ever wanted was freedom.


    Known as a harbinger of bad omens and blamed for Demons eating her family, Reia is shunned by her entire village. When the next offering is due and the monstrous Duskwalker is seen heading their way, her village offers her an impossible choice – be thrown into the prison cells or allow herself to be sacrificed to a faceless monster.


    However, he is not what he seems. His skull face and glow eyes are ethereal, and she finds herself unwittingly enchanted by him.


    All Orpheus ever wanted was a companion.


    Each decade, in exchange for a protection ward from the Demons that terrorise the world, Orpheus takes a human offering to the Veil – the place he lives and the home of Demons. The brief companionship does little to ease his loneliness, and their lives were always, unfortunately, cut short.


    He'd thought it was a hopeless endeavour, until he met her. She’s not afraid of him, and his insatiable desire deepens

    within every moment of her presence.


    But will Orpheus be able to convince Reia to stay before she’s lost to him forever?

      A Soul to Keep
      ???✨ 3.5 Story
      ???? 4 Spice (oh that ??)

      A Soul to Keep was my first dive into the world of monster romance, and I have to say, I completely won over!

      Pleasantly surprised & shocked with how much emotion and character development this book has.
      The chemistry between the FMC and MMC was absolutely adorable.
      The way their relationship unfolded was both heartwarming and thrilling, making me root for them all the way through.

      Although I now have a very strong need to grow my own vegetables and berries.

      I can't wait to see what adventures await in the rest of the series!
    • 5/5
      I loved every moment of this book and I regret leaving it in "my to read list" for so long. I recommend this book for everybody. This book is amazing. The connection between it is mind-blowing. It is amazing. And the opening had me laughing my ass off.
    • 5/5
      ?????? words aren't enough for this audio.. for a spicy read highly recommend!
    • 5/5
      Loved the story and readers were absolutely perfect for this. Monster spirit not turning to some handsome guy was very refreshing. Haven't read anything quite like this and I would rated even more higher if I could. Sad it ended already.

    • 5/5
      This book was so entertaining and different from any other paranormal bride series. I love the development of each character. The journey to find love, and Reia's inter turmoil but faith in herself and decisions. Many emotions i felt with this book, looking forward to adding this to my collection. And reading the next installment.
    • 4/5
      The dystopian /fantasy part was really interesting and eventful. There was no boring moment in this department. The romantic part, as I'm a fan of fast paced romance, was a little frustrating because this part felt too slow burn for my liking! LOL But I loved that the book was mostly centered on the MC couple. The narrators did an amazing job making both Orpheus and Reia very real and distinctive from the other few characters that featured. Kudos to them.
    • 5/5
      OMG great listen, will def be listening to the rest
    • 5/5
      My new favorite series ? I cannot wait for the rest to be narrated!!!
    • 5/5
      I love this book. It gives off Beauty and the Beast vibes.It gives off touch her and dye vibes.And the main female character she's not weak and the main male character is strong.He comes off a little aggressive in the beginning but it's because he's learning.
      I would definitely recommend this for anyone who's looking for a fantasy romance who also loves a good kind of redemption story.
    • 5/5
      I loved the duet narration and the story. Looking for more from this suthor. Binged and kept my interest
