About this listen
In a realm on the brink of destruction, evil forces snatch innocents to suffer fates worse than death. Only a monster hunter and her monstrous enemy can stop them.
Drue Emmerson, noblewoman-turned-ranger, wants one thing: vengeance. With her family slain by the vicious shadow wraiths, she’s determined to defend her fallen kingdom. And that means carving out the hearts of every dark creature she can find.
Talemir Starling, celebrated warrior of the realms, has a dangerous secret: he's a half-wraith, kin to the creatures wreaking devastation on the world. He’ll do anything to keep his true nature under control…especially around the woman who’s vowed to destroy him.
When someone Drue cares about disappears, all signs point to Talemir’s kind. But he’s determined to prove he’s no monster and to seek answers of his own. Begrudgingly, the pair must join forces to uncover the deadly truth.
But in a world of chaos and carnage, where danger lurks at every turn, deadlier still is their attraction to one another—the one thing that might just spell the end of them both. Will Talemir win Drue’s heart? Or will she carve his out before the end?
Slaying the Shadow Prince is a standalone instalment of the heart-pounding fantasy-romance series Mortal Enemies to Monster Lovers. If you like fiery heroines and tortured heroes, as well as forced proximity, found family, and touch-her-and-you-die vibes, you will devour this sexy, addictive fantasy romance.

With her death foretold, Althea Zoltaire only has three years to become what she’s always dreamed of being: a warrior legend. Women are forbidden to wield blades, so she has trained in secret her entire life. Now racing against the clock, she fights to secure her place in the elite guild charged with the protection of the five kingdoms. The sparring and hazing of the new trainees border on deadly, but even more dangerous is her growing attraction to Wilder Hawthorne, her unwilling warrior chaperone. All around them, schemes are afoot and darkness looms.

Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae. The humans who manage to keep their power are known as the corrupt. And they are burned. When my forbidden power is discovered, I’m forced to flee my tiny village and the life I adore. To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest moment. Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city, and he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden.

I have never been favored by the gods. Far from it, thanks to Zeus. Living as a cursed office clerk for the Order of Thieves, I just keep my head down and hope the capricious beings who rule from Olympus won’t notice me. Not an easy feat, given San Francisco is Zeus’ patron city, but I make do. I survive. Until the night I tangle with a different god. The worst god. Hades. For the first time ever, the ruthless, mercurial King of the Underworld has entered the Crucible—the deadly contest the gods hold to determine a new ruler to sit on the throne of Olympus.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

With her death foretold, Althea Zoltaire only has three years to become what she’s always dreamed of being: a warrior legend. Women are forbidden to wield blades, so she has trained in secret her entire life. Now racing against the clock, she fights to secure her place in the elite guild charged with the protection of the five kingdoms. The sparring and hazing of the new trainees border on deadly, but even more dangerous is her growing attraction to Wilder Hawthorne, her unwilling warrior chaperone.

Story
When I was a little girl, I dreamed a handsome knight would come and rescue me from my wretched mother. He'd ride up on his white steed and break the curse I've been fated to carry since the day I was born. Funny how things changed over time, how the fairytale twisted into something far more crooked—and darker—than I ever imagined. In reality, my knight is scarred and broken, living alone in a castle of bones that overlooks the sea. He isn’t searching for me. He never was.

Prequel for Blood and Steel
I was kind of surprised when I read this book because I did not know beforehand that it was- well, I'm guessing it is - a prequel to Ms. Scheuerer's new series - Blood & Steel The Legends of Thezmarr. Luckily, I had been awarded the ARC for that first book (B&S) and had already read it (it was really good) I was REALLY surprised to see some of the same characters in this book. But, the events in this book occur BEFORE Blood and Steel (hence prequel...sorry, my brain just caught up....) anyway, it does explain some things.
While I REALLY liked the first book (B&S), this book felt like it was missing a lot of the depth that we get in Blood and Steel with the world building and the character development of the MC's and the secondary characters. At first, for some reason, I thought it was a novella or short story, but it wasn't. But, with that being said, there was a lot of info that wasn't really necessary and could have been cut out to make a more streamlined story so maybe it should have been a novella.
Anyway, this book tells the story of two of the War Swords of Thezmarr, but the focus is on the couple Drue and Talemir. The situation with Talemir is unusual and for some reason Drue is drawn to him. We get to find out WHY Talemir is not there for B&S and it definitely helps with the back story.
All in all it was helpful - but out of all of the books I have read from Ms. Scheuerer, this is probably the weakest. Still good- just not as good as I have come to expect.

Yes!
This is a fantastic book! I am not sure if it can be classified as a novella but it is a prequel to the “Legends of Thezzmarr” series. I read the first three books than this one and the fourth just came out. I listened to all on here and i definitely recommend the audiobooks. All the narrators are absolutely fantastic! I know some people were the biggest fan of the female narrator in this but I loved her voice as well as the males. The story is beautiful, it does get steamy! I honestly enjoyed reading it after I already started the series I enjoy the emotional journey and learning backstories and having details filled in that I had previously wondered about.
10/10 recommend <3

A good start to the series
I liked the story, overall, but it became clear towards the end that this was just a glimpse into a much bigger world. Would have liked to know/see that a bit more here. Clearly, there a bigger fight with other characters to come.

The perfect amount of everything you need for a romantasy.
I went into this series blind and I'll say, it is amazing. It is a perfect blend of all the things that make a good romantasy. I couldn't put these down. They fed my soul in a way only a few books have.

Great for your legends of Thezmarr hangover
I finished Legends of Thezmarr and was just moping around so sad and then I remembered this sort of prequel (?) existed and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I honestly don’t know if I would have enjoyed it AS much had I not been invested in the world and characters already, but it’s hot and original in terms of storyline, which is always hard to find. If you’re considering, go for it!

5/5 THIS IS FOR YOU
Do you want a well written stand alone fantasy, a bad ass FMC a cast of characters you fall for instantly, and some excellent spice? THIS IS FOR YOU. I did not expect to love the MMC so much ❤️. The way he interacts with the FMC is top tier.
