Synopsis

For Olivia Shaw, the danger of her assignments as a deadly Whisper agent is matched only by that of her hidden status: Liv is one of the caricae, extremely rare women capable of bearing children and therefore controlled by the Syndicate's government. When her handler sends her into the Quillian Empire, her mission is complicated by stumbling upon a kidnapping in progress.

Liv is drawn deep into political upheaval when her hostage is revealed to be the infamous Red Wolf, Galen De Corvus, brother of the Quillian Empress. Worse yet, he is an altus, more sensitive than most to the pheromones of caricae. If he realizes what she is, he could expose her secret to either government and doom her to a life as breeding stock.

Quillian nobleman turned operative Galen never planned to involve himself with a citizen of the cold, cruel Syn, but Olivia entices him more than she should. As they work together to protect his royal sister from a violent coup, the passionate bond between them proves to be more than mere biology. And Liv must decide if that bond is worth dropping her guard for both an enemy and an altus.

Contains mature themes.

DELICIOUS. And......more

I would have never found this book, were it not I read my Goodreads acquaintance Lex Kent's review of A Treason of Truths. Lex said that it could be read as a stand-alone, but I quickly felt I was missing out on too many crucial details. So I started reading this one first. And I'm so glad I did. Desp......more

Goodreads review by Ollie Z on April 14, 2019

Mostly glorious with an incredible cast of characters and a solid main pair. I’d have liked to see an apology from Galen in the resolution, as opposed to only one from Olivia. They both fucked up, they realised their mistakes, and I’m getting really tired of the men in m/f romances not carrying thei......more

Goodreads review by Ellie on September 03, 2018

So, so good! Interesting post-apocalyptic world, the prickliest assassin/outcast heroine, a most caring Duke/warrior hero, queer secondary cast! Full review: What a great sci-fi/dystopian romance! I don't reach much SF but some friends on Twitter were raving about it so I decided to give it a try. It de......more

Goodreads review by Regan on July 09, 2018

Loved A CONSPIRACY OF WHISPERS by Ada Harper. Fun, funny, sweet and wonderfully action-y, it really pushed my Killjoys button (which is one of my favorite buttons). Olivia's a heroine you can't tell if you want to hang with or be, and as a hero Galen reminded me of...Han Solo? Circa Empire (which is......more
