About this listen

Caspien Deveraux was poison.

It took me years to realise that he hadn't been born like that. He'd been cultivated and nurtured by a careful hand and a bitter heart. When I first met him, he was a bud. One primed to bloom beautifully and deadly. One I should have torn out at the root.

I loathed him. I loved him. And until him, I hadn't known just how completely those two things could exist at once.

A beautiful and well written story about heartbreak, lies and love. When I started to listen to the book my anxiety level was peeking high. Through the entire book, my heart did didn’t speed down. Well recommended for everyone that just love the little more complex love story.

Truly the most incredible story ever. I could never put it into words how much I loved this story. I read it in July and I feel in love with Scarlett’s writing and her world she created.
The reading experience is amazing I couldn’t fault it but the audio is just wow. The narrator George did something to do. He made me feel more than I did reading it which is impressive. He smashed it. I hope I get to hear his voice again on one of Scarlett’s books. This book is everything. Truly loved it and it will be a book I go back to reread or listen to again and again years to come.

All the stars for my favourite book.!

This book was is one of the best books I've listened to. The story although familiar, captured the pain of heartbreaking first love and confusion that comes with being a teenager, as well as living with the pain of unrequited love as an adult. It had me in tears more than a few times.I am completely wrecked, I loved it! I cannot recommend this book enough, the narrator was brilliant, I could listen to him all day long. The whole thing was perfect!

perfect!
