lambsbooks 's review for:
The Audient and The Phantom Night
by Sadie Hewitt
“I've had a never-ending, unquenchable need to taste you since the moment I laid eyes on you."
4.25 stars
Devlin gaped at her, lips parting in disbelief. “You traded your life to the sea knowing full well that you didn’t know how to swim” Fenna bristled. “I didn’t think you would toss me into the bay at your first given chance.”
Our fierce Fenna, in a heroic attempt to save her USELESS SHIT brother, takes on his life debt to a pirate – one who hunts souls for the sea. Think Pirates of the Caribbean and Davey Jones locker – I was living for it!
A fun trope list, or at least things I liked that may or may not be a trope:
🏴☠️Tattooed pirate
🏴☠️A bargain
🏴☠️Spicy spice
🏴☠️Morally grey MMC with a soft inside for ✨her✨
🏴☠️A MMC who always makes sure a woman consents and punishes those who don’t ask for consent
🏴☠️FMC with a hidden strength and rare power
🏴☠️Do you like me on my knees before you?
“My mother would have expected it from me. The women who have signed themselves to my charge expect it from me. And furthermore, I expect it from me. No one will touch you, except when you want to be touched.”
I absolutely loved Devlin! He was the perfect mix of all the personalities I like in a book boyfriend.
Though Devlin merely returned her gratitude with a gruff grunt from the back of his throat, he was certain he would choose to spend the rest of his existence in an uncomfortable armchair still in his wet, frigid clothes just to hear her say them again.
I really need to read more pirate books, I absolutely adore them.
What would he do to keep Fenna at his side? Absolutely anything was the resounding answer. He would do anything. He would sacrifice a thousand men, and burn the world to the ground in the process.
