Well, no good deed goes unpunished… When Mila agrees to take her landlady’s place for her next tarot reading/fortune telling client, she thinks she’s just being helpful. After all, it’s a small favor, she’s an actress and she can throw some platitudes towards the client and all will be well. What she doesn’t know is that it was the fortune teller’s ploy to fool Grim (as in Reaper) and avoid death. Grim is immediately taken with Mila and doesn’t know what to do with her now that he knows he has taken the wrong person.
Mila is baffled by all this but most of all by the fact that she’s mesmerized by the long-haired, scarred being that absconded her to the Underworld. He offers her a partnership until he can figure out how to fix this mess caused by Calpurnia – that is, if he can part ways with the only creature who’s ever warmed his heart.
Asher’s Birth: Grim is a very interesting fantasy/paranormal romance with a different take on the afterlife.
The chemistry between Mila and Grim is off the charts and there is family drama even in the underworld. Who knew??
The audiobook is narrated in duet by Angelina Rocca and Gregory Salinas, featuring Oscar Reyes. It’s always a pleasure to listen to Angelina and she’s amazing as Mila, a woman whose life literally ‘goes to hell’. Gregory’s voice is just right for the commanding, scary Grim. He also adds a tenderness to the Grim Reaper. Oscar Reyes has a small but pivotal role and he nails it.
Though it doesn’t end in a cliffhanger, it does leave you wanting for this to become a series. I need to know more about Hunt… and Asher!!
Great spooky and romantic listen for the Halloween season.
Content notes: the books deals with mortality and death, depicting death involving humans, animals and other beings.
