Summary
For years, when I fell asleep, I dreamed of a man with blazing green eyes and a cruel smile. The day I meet him, the ruthless mercenary leaves me for dead. Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae. The humans who manage to keep their power are known as the corrupt. And they are burned. When my forbidden power is discovered, I’m forced to flee my tiny village and the life I adore. To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest moment. Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city, and he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden—the power that may just be the key to my survival. But the ruthless mercenary is hiding secrets of his own, secrets that threaten the safety of everyone I love, that could tear this kingdom—and perhaps even this world—apart. Please note: A Court This Cruel and Lovely is an NA/adult romantasy book with steam. While this series is slow burn, the chili-pepper rating will increase for each book.

I’m quite surprised this has such high ratings. Unfortunately, this book came off feeling way too close to Throne of Glass. From the hidden identity of noble to falling for a fae brute… it’s too close to SJM and her works.

Enjoyed the story. The female narrator was great, but the male narrators voice was annoying.

It's a fun book, nothing super deep or complicated, it's perfect to listen meanwhile doing housechores

This is the best fantasy romance I've listened to so far.What I loved:1. The main characters are genuinely not attracted to each other in the beginning2a. All the supporting characters get a back story which makes them feel part of the plot and not just NPCs2b. Healthy family relationships are depicted3. The female voice actor does an incredible job conveying emotion through her inflexions4. The adventure part is at the forefront and the love plot is secondary5. The heroine has a well developed character arc from naive teen left in the wind to a person ready to murder evil doers and sacrifice her own life6. The spicy scenes make sense and actually have a purpose in furthering the plot7. The plot is not short on unexpected turns that had me biting my nails

Female narrator was great, male sounded very out of place. Overall, good listen, slow burn. Bit disappointed at all the build up for the "plan" and for it to feel rushed and lacking details during the execution of the plan.
