'Amber's series breaks the rules in the best way. Her main character is strong, capable, and unapologetically powerful. There is no damsel here. This story is filled with fast-paced action, an in-depth world, and a romance that goes from simmer to boil. If you like romantasy, read this!' RAVEN KENNEDY

Don't miss this addictive BookTok sensation - a perfectly steamy, high-stakes, TRUE enemies-to-lovers, dark epic romantasy!

WHERE THERE ARE GODS, THERE ARE ALSO MONSTERS . . .


For a thousand years, the Etherworld has known peace.
Until now.

Many centuries ago, desperate to save her dying sister, Dianna made a deal with Kaden, a monster far worse than any nightmare. Locked in servitude to him, she is forced to hunt down an ancient relic held by her most dangerous enemies: an army led by Samkiel, the World Ender.

After the Gods War, Samkiel hid from everything, denying his crown and deserting his people. Now, an attack on those he loves sends him back to the realm he never wished to return to, and into the sights of an enemy he had hoped to forget.

With every world at stake, Dianna and Samkiel are forced to set aside their animosity and work together, before all is lost . . .

Don't miss the next books in the series, THE THRONE OF BROKEN GODS and THE DAWN OF THE CURSED QUEEN. . .

'A wicked ride from beginning to heart shattering end. Leaving me literally screaming for more. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough to get more our morally corrupt heroine who you can't help but root for, along with the giggle inducing banter between her and the heroic god Samkiel' HANNAH NICOLE MAERHER

'Once in a while I read a series that reminds me of just why I love enemies to lovers, slow burn, and morally grey characters so much. Gods and Monsters is that series. This is perfection. Amber Nicole's Dianna is the FMC of my soul' NISHA J. TULI

This was just...MWAH.

I had seen mixed reviews about this book and I'm a huge, spicy/dark romance fan but I'm new to the adult fantasy genre, this was such a 'page turner' so to speak. I loved the FMC but at first I hated her, the character development was really good and the chemistry and banter between the two were amazing. It flips the usual tropes of a Morally grey MMC and a Well meaning FMC around, she is Morally Grey but arguably justifiably so and he is a true fantasy hero however he is the grump and she is a sarcastic and a little bit arrogant sunshine.

I had lumps in my throat more than once in this book and out loud laughs too, the spice is there but its just a little but the chemistry is just fabulous... loved loved loved equally can't wait and nervous to read the next books.

Amazing book!

I loved this book and I’m about to start the next one. The MFC is the ultimate anti hero, she is amazing. I have fallen in love with the main characters and I can’t wait to start the second book in this series. If you enjoy Books like From Blood and Ash, ACOTAR and crescent city, this book is for you!

Looking forward to the next book(s)!

It has been refreshing and addictive.
I am so grateful to #Jessica (Honest Fiction) for this book recommendation; I jumped in based on her review and I regret NOTHING! The first part of the book was a bit slow, but I really like it when Diana and Liam's story picked up! I especially love the fact that the characters are all unique and feel very original too.
There is so much more behind these morally grey characters, not all is what it seems; the character development felt so naturally and intriguing.
I am SO looking forward for the rest of the books in this series.

Awful reading

The couldnt even finish listening to the story because the voice for liam made me repeatedly cringe, the voice over for diana was obnoxious and they made gabby so so whinny. Just terrible.

Great story

I feel like this was one of the most brilliant depictions of Enemies to Lovers. I adore the idea of an enslaved villain with a hero complex and and introverted God with PTSD working together on a quest like in Indiana Jones' movies ❤️❤️❤️ Cant wait to continue the journey with Diana and Liam!

Wow

Excellent storytelling. I don’t usually like audiobooks with just one narrator doing all of the male/female voices but have to say this is definitely one of the better ones.
Looking forward to the next book

It’s a good idea but could have been executed better

I liked the reversed roles of the morally grey FMC and heroic MMC, it was a good idea, the world building is good, however this could have been edited better. The first half of the book is all over the place jumping around in time, something happens then we jump back in time to the other characters pov. There are parts that are dragging a bit. The relationship between the two sisters is a bit weird, the younger sister Gabby who’s also like a 1000 years old but is treated by her sister and acts like a helpless teenage girl who needs to be constantly protected by her sister. It wasn’t bad but there is no way I can listen to a 28 hour long second book unfortunately.
