Summary

A world the gods forgot.

Of all the worlds and life they created, the gods favored their children the most. But with that favor came the fear that their Legacy would one day become too powerful and overthrow them. Devram was created. A realm hidden amongst the stars. The gods gave their Legacy the best of all the worlds, and then they left, a sworn agreement to never return and to never interfere.

A historical event.

Forced to a life of servitude, the Fae are required to provide for the Legacy in more ways than one. Every five years, the eligible Fae are gathered for the Selection and assigned to serve in one of the six Kingdoms. To be chosen as the personal Source for a Kingdom Heir is the greatest honor, and for the first time in a millennia, all six Kingdoms have heirs choosing a Source. But their selections could tip the power balance a little too far.

A chosen that was never meant to be.Tessalyn Asura was as forgotten as the realm. But when she finds herself the personal Source to the Heir of Endings, she winds up serving in the darkest Kingdom of them all. The secrets within the Arius Kingdom are meant to be learned and kept, but this was never the life she wanted. Fighting not only the fate thrust upon her, but the temptation to lose herself to desire, Tessa will do anything to escape her new destiny. Until she starts to realize maybe their world wasn’t as forgotten as they thought, and maybe she’s the reason why.

Rain of Shadows and Endings is book one in The Legacy Series and ends on a cliffhanger. This is new adult dark fantasy romance series and includes elements that may be triggering to some listeners.

Don’t bother

After 24 hours of listening to this, I really wonder why I bothered.
I kept hoping that at some point that MMC would show some redeeming qualities, but that just didn’t happen. 24 hours of listening to somebody be abused, belittled, manipulated and lied to is a lot!!!
I love a morally grey alpha-holes but listening to someone be abused constantly isn’t my idea of fun, it’s just depressing, certainly not entertaining.
I won’t be bothering with the rest of this series

Drawn out abuse

I want to love the book but it’s a hard listen with barely any reprieve for Tessa, going through so much physical and mental abuse. It’s clear she has power waiting to manifest, but sadly the author is holding this piece of the story back, and instead subjecting Tessa to further abuse. Given that the book is 24hr+ of listening time, I think it was unnecessary. There was not much more to the story than the intensity of her treatment. It got a bit much. I will listen to the second book but maybe not just yet.
