Soul of a Witch Audiobook – Souls Trilogy, Book 3

I’ll never forget the electric tingle I felt as I listened to Soul of a Witch on a rainy Portland afternoon, curled up by my window and watching thunderclouds gather—because Harley LaRoux’s world is made for stormy weather. Right from the first chapter, I was swept away into Everly’s haunted journey: an outsider desperate for freedom and aching with untapped magic, who stumbles (violently) into her own power and into the arms of something ancient and dark.

As someone drawn to stories about transformation and self-acceptance, I resonated deeply with Everly’s struggle to reclaim agency over her life. There’s so much empathy in how LaRoux paints trauma—not as a backdrop but as living history shaping every choice Everly makes. When Callum enters—the demon whose centuries-old devotion is both terrifying and alluring—I found myself surprisingly moved. It’s rare that paranormal romance captures both danger and tenderness this convincingly.

What truly sets Soul of a Witch apart from other dark fantasy romances is its lush sensuality paired with real emotional stakes. The chemistry between Everly and Callum crackles; their connection isn’t just physical (though let me assure you, these scenes are scorchingly steamy), it’s also rooted in shared longing for acceptance—for belonging somewhere after lifetimes spent in shadow. In many ways, listening to their story reminded me of times in my own life when finding the courage to claim love meant facing down personal demons.

Harley LaRoux doesn’t shy away from difficult themes: control, religious oppression, even violence—but she balances this darkness with defiant hopefulness. The atmosphere is thick with occult secrets and dread yet underpinned by resilience—a kind of rebellious joy in survival that rang true for me as someone who believes healing can bloom even in haunted places.

Since narrator information wasn’t available at time of review (and I really wish I knew who lent voice to these characters!), all I can say is that the performance must deliver intensity; because each line pulsed with tension—sometimes soft like a whispered promise, sometimes rough like gravel—and brought out every ounce of raw desire or pain scripted on the page.

If there was one thing that gave me pause, it would be some moments where exposition slowed down the pacing—especially when delving into magical lore or backstory mid-conflict—but honestly? These were small prices to pay for world-building this immersive. And though Soul of a Witch stands alone beautifully, hints at past heartbreaks make me eager to circle back through earlier books in the trilogy (even if you don’t have to).

Ultimately: This book isn’t just sexy escapism—it wrestles honestly with what it means to reclaim yourself after loss. If you’re craving an audiobook where forbidden love smolders amidst cosmic danger—and aren’t afraid of stories that wander into darker corners—you’ll find plenty here worth surrendering your soul for.
