About this listen

After my human death, I found a new and purrfect life as the feline familiar to a witch. But my safe haven is about to crumble. Winnie, my witch, is performing more spells, draining both our magic reserves and acting suspiciously as she works on a secret project. Since curiosity kills cats, I escape into the arms of Charlie: the handsome and grumpy hacker next-door that I want, but can never have. When supernatural visitors show up asking him for help we are introduced to realms beyond our world. A faei, his demon lover, and the irresistible titan, Zaide, who I’m instantly drawn to, are looking for something…and it might be closer than they think. As the mysteries of Winnie’s project unfold, I’m horrified by what I discover. I go against my witch, and lose my fur to help Charlie and his new friends. But with my human body comes the haunting memories of my human past. I only hope the men I’ve come to care for will help me remember how good being human can be.

If you like the magic of Kresley Cole, the found family of Sarah J Maas, and Laurell K Hamilton's romance, in which the heroine is not forced to choose between her love interests, then you’ll devour Alba Lockwood’s enchanting debut series.

Loved the narration from Olivia Rhoades, James Davey and Isaac Epinal

Clawdia is a cat and her familiar is a witch. Charlie is the next door neighbour that Claudia like to annoy. Zaide is from another realm and seeks Charlie's help to find his mate.
We have Fae, Incubus and Titan oh yes romance and chaos.

This book is a slow burn romance with a lot of character build up.

This is my first Alba Lockwood book, an intriguing paranormal romance that grabbed my attention immediately and captivated it the entire time. The story is unique and original, having a witch’s familiar as a lead character, a complex character with depth and then introduces us to other characters that are just as complex and fascinating, too. Winnie, a witch, has a cat as her familiar, Clawdia, who often visits their neighbor Charlie, who works from home. When other supernatural beings show up, it is Charlie who tries to help him, since finding things is his job and they do not need to search far to find what they are looking for, Zaide’s fated mate. But all goes haywire when his travel mate gets abducted and the witches steal his fire. Clawdia suspected Winnie and her girlfriend were working on something secretive and after witnessing what they could do, she knew it was not anything good. The story follows them, trying to save their friend and get his fire back, and they need to find what the witches have planned and track them down. We also get glimpses into Clawdia’s past, showing who she was before and how she became a witch’s familiar. There is never a dull moment in this intriguing and cleverly plotted story, a multi-layered story that has the perfect balance of drama, angst, humor, action, twists and turns, heartfelt emotions and a slow burn romance. The world building and character development are fantastic. Alba Lockwood, thank you for the fascinating story and wild ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous audiobook production, excellent casting and voice acting performed by Olivia Rhoades, James Davey and Isaac Epinal who were amazing in their roles. They were spot on with their portrayal of the characters, giving each a voice that was fitting to their character’s personality and was believable in every role. Setting the perfect tone for the story, they captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. These three made a great team, with voices and talent that complemented each other and a performance that takes the already wonderful story to another level. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to.
