So Dan Calley is a new to me narrator and I'm not loving his voice, so this wasn't an easy listen. What didn't help either was the story from an equally new to me author.
I kinda think I should have DNFed but I stuck it out... why? I wasn't keen on starting a book to read so I kept listening and playing games on my phone.
You see the story was just... basic and cheesy and predictable. There is an overreaching plot throughout the 4 books in the series but it was hardly explored! Everything centered around Oscar's trauma and not in the way of healthy ways to deal with it.
Repetitive and monotone, no interest aroused when it came to the MCs and overall just a very old and tired insta-love, fated mates story.

Oscar has baggage, and Cal has secrets. But something otherworldly draws them to each other, and when Cal's past threatens to bleed into his present, there is nothing Cal won't do to keep Oscar safe.
Cal's father wants to bring his sons back home - the three that left Hell and their positions as the princes, Lucifer's sons. They want nothing to do with this. And then Cal mets Oscar. Feisty, nerdy Oscar who has been through his own personal hell, and survived. There's an undeniable connection between the two when they meet, and their connection grows very strong, very fast.
Cal is overprotective, a little possessive, and absolutely smitten with Oscar. Which is exactly what Oscar needs - because Cal builds him up. Cal supports him, but he doesn't try to control Oscar in any way. They treat each other as equals. They respect each other, and they work together to get through challenges. Even when the threat of mortal danger looms high and mighty.
This book was a solid mix of world building, some backstory, and character development. The plot is clearly one that will be ongoing - Lucifer won't give up trying to regain control of his sons. But Cal is stronger with Oscar by his side. And there are three more brothers left to find their mates. I'm sure what comes next is bound to be a very wild ride.

Audio: 4.5 stars, took me a bit to get in to Dan Calley and Joel Leslie’s narration, but in the end i started to enjoy it!
Book: 4 stars
Idk what it is about these books, but it’s an easy read that will have you smiling as well as make you want a demon to mark you for their own!
I am really looking forward to Harlow and Bailey’s book now!

I tried my hardest to get into it, I love demons living on Earth in modern times but somehow I just couldn’t connect with the characters. Maybe I’ll try again in the future.
