About this listen

"Thea Guanzon’s talent is limitless, and she is the kind of writer that comes around once in a generation. Mark my words: lives will be changed by The Hurricane Wars trilogy.”—Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis

Two hearts circle each other in the eye of the storm in this highly-anticipated follow-up to the New York Times bestseller, The Hurricane Wars—prepare for more enemies-to-lovers romance, magical adventures, and political schemes in this Southeast Asian-inspired world.

After a lifetime of war, Alaric and Talasyn were thrust into an alliance between their homelands that was supposed to end the fighting; however, being married to their sworn foe feels far from peaceful. Now Talasyn must play the part of Alaric’s willing empress while her allies secretly plot to overthrow his reign. But the longer the couple are forced together, the harder it becomes to deny the feelings crackling like lightning between them. When the time comes to act, can she trust him, or must she ignore her heart for the sake of so many others?

As the master of the Shadowforged Legion, Alaric has trained for battle all his life, but marrying a Lightweaver might be his most dangerous challenge yet. With tensions between nations churning, he needs to focus on the greater threat—the Moonless Dark, a cataclysmic magical event that could devour everything. Only he and Talasyn can stop it, with a powerful merging of light and shadow that they alone can create together. But saving their world from this disaster is a mere preface to his father’s more sinister schemes, and his wife is a burning flame in the darkness, tempting both his loyalties and his desires.

The Hurricane Wars aren’t over. It’s time to choose what—and who—to fight for. The world holds its breath amidst a whirlwind of new magic and old secrets that could change everything.

Perfection!!!

Wow wow wow. What a perfect follow up. But beware… major cliffhanger. Worth it. But it’s brutal.

I need more!

Holy shit that ending! I have so many questions and I’m so PISSED there’s not even a release date for the next book! I don’t know if I can wait a year to see Alarics reaction…what he’ll do, that he’ll discover, how they’ll find their way back to each other.

The world building in these books is pretty incredible and seeing the world eater in this one was just glorious! When this series was suggested as a dragon book I honestly didn’t get it during the first one. Now I get it. Now I can see their scales shimmering in the Nenavar sunlight. I love it! I wish there’s was *slightly* more of them, but I also wish that about the spice 🌶️ - both amazingly awesome, both I desperately need more of!

what a cliffhanger hanger

I have loved everything about this series so far. From the complex feelings, the royal system, the magic. All of it sucks you into the story. To leave us on that kind of cliffhanger though how will I making to book three release date.

Slow to point

I truly love the story line and the characters. The 10 of the 12 hours were spent in a prolonged romance with good character building but no storyline development. Felt like the last 2 hours the author packed so much in and left us on a cliff hanger. Hopefully next book is much better and brings the war storyline back to center
