    About this audiobook

    In Grayflame, capital to the country of Pestal, Marilla Haste is the royal hook — a bounty hunter bound to King Raymond Haste. While born and raised at Castle Haustfall, it is not coincidence Marilla was groomed to be the royal hook. The King is her grandfather… partially.

    Marilla is a bastard. In fact, Marilla is a bastard of a bastard, and has a daughter of her own out of wedlock. While she will never see the throne herself because of her long family history of breaking tradition, she is highly valued by her king.

    As the royal hook, assigned jobs relating directly to crimes against the crown, Marilla Haste can bring a different kind of honor to the crown and her family. When the crown is stolen right off the King’s head, Marilla is at the top of the list to find the thief, and the crown, and bring them both back to Grayflame.

    Marilla finds herself with quite the company on her journey. Among her trusted companions — and one new comrade she finds intolerable — is Knight Hemmers, a long-time friend and friendly partner in flirtation… and a few other things. Marilla not only finds herself longing to find the man who stole the crown; she soon realizes her good friend may, in fact, be more than just a friend as feelings once dismissed as petty turn out to be quite heavy from both her and Knight Hemmers.

      I was about 13, on a sofa in front of the television on a wet Saturday afternoon. I was carelessly able to do that once – sigh. I was watching a black-and-white film. Or maybe the TV was black-and-white – probably. It was a story about a nanny caring

      It was an enjoyable story with a strong female character. Also had good narration. Do not read or listen to if you have a problem with a few sex scenes.
    • 5/5
      Justin did not disappoint with this story. I could not get enough and was sad when it ended. It had me on the edge of my seat, wishing I was with the main male character and feeling like I was in the story with the characters.

      It was a great book. I enjoyed how you didn’t know for sure which she was going to choose till closer to the end versus her just getting with the guy in the beginning

      3.75 Stars for me.

      This is definitely a fun story with a lot of heat and a strong h. The romance is definitely told from a man's perspective. This could potentially be a series.

      A little crass but enjoyable. Could have went without the graphic sex language but other than that an enjoyable read.

      Excellent reader and a genuinely interesting, fairytale like story. The heroine is tough but vulnerable, and she can bounty hunt AND sew her daughter a dress. I really liked it!

      Although the main character is portrayed as a lusty female, it is very obvious the author either has no clue about female sexual pleasure or resents female sexuality too much to research the matter. The remainder of the story is only about men. Pass on this one If you enjoy gender fluidity, respectful feminism or promoting good authors.
