Warwick (“North” series) transports listeners to a land where winter is constant, and the feared god, the North Wind—Boreas—needs a new bride. Protective Wren will do anything to stop her twin sister, Elora, from becoming Boreas’s next prize, even if it means taking her place. Determined to kill him so that she can end Boreas’s wintry grip on the land and keep her sister safe, Wren forges an alliance with Boreas’s brother, the North Wind. As she spends time with the wintry immortal, waiting for her plan to fall into place, her feelings for him begin to change. Carlotta Brentan does an excellent job of voicing Wren, capturing her fierce resolve that begins to soften as her relationship with the North Wind develops. Travis Tonn narrates the North Wind in a husky tone, leaning into his masculinity and arrogance but also letting his tenderness surface.
VERDICT The enemies-to-lovers trope shines in this lush romantasy. Listeners of Sarah J. Maas and Claire Legrand will want to add Warwick’s latest to their shelves.
