About this listen

A warrior's honor meets a fae’s secrets.

Vesper lives in the shadows, guarding her secrets with the same care she gives her rare flora magic. In the scented court, where every bloom is power, she plays her part while saving for a future far from her haunted past. But when a threatening message arrives, Vesper realizes she can't run forever. How far will she go to protect herself—and the one creature she holds dear?

Regalis, with his fierce raptor familiar, stands as a pillar of honor among the elite Fahyli soldiers. Yet beneath the warrior’s exterior lies a heart yearning for a true mate. Fate throws them together in a foggy twist of events: a murder, a kidnapping, and a mystery that binds their fates together.

Vesper must decide if she can trust Regalis with the truth she’s buried deep, while Regalis faces the ultimate test—can he forgive the web of lies spun in fear? As past sins collide with present dangers, one question remains: who will make the ultimate sacrifice?

A Star of Darkness is a pulse-pounding romantasy adventure of intrigue and passion, set in the mesmerizing world of the Scented Court series by A.L. Knorr. Dive into this standalone story where love battles against the shadows of the past, and the magic of flora and fauna weaves a fate neither of these star-crossed lovers saw coming. Set in the world of The Scented Court but can be enjoyed as a standalone. Not YA, but suitable for ages 14+.

Excellent

Engaging, and intriguing. I love that the main character got his story and a happy ever after. I'd love to see some of the other characters from the scented court get the same treatment. This universe still has much to offer. The crofter has much more to him than is realised, he still surprises me after all these books. The King and Queen are excellent too. But our hero and heroine in this book have a deserved, well written story. The pace is good, and the twists excellent. The POV narration worked really well too.

I loved it

Oh my goodness what a fantastic audiobook from the pen of A.L. Knorr. It took me a chapter or two to get into it , because it's been a while and a large number of books, from listening to the ones before but it gripped me and I was sorry it ended.

Beautiful and sad, this book filled my heart

I was not prepared for how this book wrecked me. I really didn't want to cry my eyes out while walking my dog about the neighbourhood at rush hour, but that is, regrettably, what happened.

Honestly, this book was so much more than I expected it to be. It was beautiful, sad, and, ultimately, hopeful. The romance was sweet, but really was a story of a lonely, lost person finding her place in the world. I just loved it.

Of the two narrators, I preferred the male voice, but I enjoyed listening to the female narrator too when spend up to 1.5. I liked the fact that the female narrator voiced all the female characters, including in the MMC chapters and vice versa. I also enjoyed the music between chapters.

More magic and mystery in the scented court

Oh Abby you did it again!
Once again we are transported to the Scented Court but this time we follow the story of Vespa. We follow her on a twisting and turning journey into her history and get to travel to other kingdoms. If you like Fae and magic this is something you need to read.
It’s an amazing ride and I hope we get to hear stories from the Scented Court.
