About this audiobook

From USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Hefner

A new era dawns as ancient threats emerge...

Tordor, son of Queen Miranda and King Sathan, was born to inherit the immortal throne. But deep within, he feels a calling to help his people in other ways. As their imminent immersion with the humans looms, he joins a clandestine team to offer his skills.

Esmerelda, daughter of Elf King Dakath, has spent centuries evading her father’s cruelty. Striving to create peace, she leads the team that will approach the humans after the destruction of the ether. Having the kind, diplomatic immortal heir on her team is a fortunate bonus.

As Esme and Tor work together to unify the realms, Dakath’s interference intensifies, reinforcing Esme’s vow to remain free of close bonds. Even if the handsome prince is determined to break through her walls and claim her as his immortal mate...

Can Tordor push past Esme’s fears, or will her father destroy their future before it’s begun?

Welcome back to Etherya’s Earth! If you love a sizzling friends-to-lovers tale with a badass, tormented heroine and a hot prince determined to claim her, this book is for you! Enjoy the journey!

This is the seventh story to the "Etherya’s Earth" series; there is a prequel and several novellas in the mix. Although it is not necessary to read these in order I would suggest it to get more out of the series. The stories do have some connected characters and an ongoing saga. This story is about Tordor, son of Queen Miranda and King Sathan, and Esmerelda, daughter of Elf King Dakath. I love these two characters and how their story develops. This is a good romantic read/listen with spicy, witt

This series gets better and better!! Ms. Hefner's world building, the characters and the storyline is so fantastic! The stories are sweet and angsty and so unique. More please!! Audiobook: The narrator Zachary Zaba has a pleasant voice and voices the different characters very well, I quite enjoyed it. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

All of the stories are all so similar it's a little predictable. Esme and Tordor's story was super sweet and romantic!!! The only issue I have is the voices for some characters changing. Why does Tordor sound like an old man? Why does every relationship have to be such a struggle? I'd rather see at least one genuine courtship without a fight all the time, but experiencing real life issues and handling them. *I received a complimentary copy of the audiobook from the author via Story Origin.
