but it's listed as 'unavailable' in every region I checked. It might be stuck in rights limbo or something. My local library's OverDrive doesn't have it either, which is usually my go-to. Maybe try putting in a purchase suggestion with your library; sometimes if enough people request it, they'll acquire the license. Otherwise, it feels like this one slipped through the cracks between the print and audio eras.

It's actually a bit tricky to locate 'The Dragon and the Rose' as an audiobook because there are a few titles that sound similar. If you mean the historical fiction one by Roberta Gellis, it's quite old and I'm not sure it ever got an audio production. I spent a good twenty minutes searching Audible and my library's Hoopla catalog and came up empty. Your best shot might be checking used book sites for old cassette versions, if they exist at all. Honestly, I think some of these older romance-adjacent novels just never made the digital leap.
You could try looking for the author's other works that did get audiobook treatments, but for this specific title, I've had no luck. It's a bit of a shame because the plot seemed like it would translate well to audio with all its courtly intrigue.

Can't find it. Searched everywhere I usually go—Audible, Scribd, Libro.fm. Nothing official. Saw a sketchy-looking YouTube upload with a text-to-speech robot voice, but that's not worth your time. Sometimes books just aren't recorded.

Wait, are we all talking about the same book? Because I listened to an audiobook called 'The Dragon and the Rose' just last year. It was a self-published fantasy romance by a newer author, Serena Clarke, I think? Found it on Audible and Google Play Audiobooks. The narrator was okay, a little breathy for my taste, but the story was fine for a road trip. If that's the one you want, it's definitely out there. If you're after the Gellis book, though, I got nothing. The title is just common enough to cause real confusion in searches.

The dragons and royals are at war. Dragons have power and the royals want it to cement their rule in their kingdoms. Rather than creating a bond between the two, the royals have been stealing dragon eggs, hoping they will bond with the dragon once it hatches, allowing the royal to become a dragon rider. However, there is a thief among them, someone who is stealing the dragon eggs and returning them to the dragons. Someone who, when found, will be put to death.
Princess Skylar is the daughter of King Augustus. Her father has been hunting dragon eggs for years. Unbeknownst to him, Skylar is the thief that he is searching for. She does not agree with stealing dragon eggs from the mothers who make their nests away from the other dragons, making themselves vulnerable to attack. Her betrothed, Prince Kenneth, also supports stealing dragon eggs in the hope of bonding with a dragon and making his kingdom stronger.
Ryuki is a dragon rider. He bonded with his dragon, Bynjym, a year ago when he stumbled across him in the wild. The bond between dragon and rider is sacred. Ryuki and other dragon riders believe that it should never be forced. The riders fight against the royals who steal dragon eggs, working to keep them from being able to access the eggs, or fighting to get the eggs back to their dragon mothers.
What will happen when Ryuki realizes that Skylar is a royal like no other? Can Skylar keep her secret from her father, continuing to work inside the palace to take the stolen eggs back to their mothers? What will happen when Skylar realizes that her feelings for Ryuki are much stronger than her feelings for Prince Kenneth? Find out in The Dragon Thief.

The Empire rules on the wings of dragons. Riders are hand-selected for training from childhood, and Anzi is one of the rare few who wait to hatch theirs this year. Until she discovers the terrible truth that the dragon riders are not partners with their dragons: they're slavers. The dragons are bred in captivity and enslaved from within the egg, and they are nothing but mindless shadows of what their once-noble species used to be.
After two hundred years, the surviving dragons in the wild are coming back to rescue their brethren. How they survived the Purge, no one knows, but they are angry and they are coming, in fire and in storm. And as she struggles to come to terms with the realization that the nation she loves so much that she would give her life for it may be nothing more than propaganda and illusion, she discovers something else:
The dragons who survived the Purge are shifters, able to hide in human form. And Anzi has met one of them already.
Her mate.
Amelia is a shy girl who had been sheltered by her parents all her life. She stumbled on an injured man one day and decided to help him. She later fell in love with the man, but he suddenly disappeared into thin air.

Alaric tried to make it up to Amelia for what he had done, so she forgave him after a while and their love began to blossom. Just then, oppositions start to come up and try to tear their love apart.
Will Alaric and Amelia be able to face their problems together, or will it tear them apart?
Bought as a defect. Destined as his mate.
As the last heir of the Wolf Kings, Grey Stormborn carries the burden of a dying kingdom. Bound by an ancient curse to the Everlasting Tree, his people are losing their ability to shift, their fertility, and their future. Only a rare Rona—a woman blessed with the power of flowers—can save them.
Desperate, Grey purchases the only Rona he can afford.
Maya is mute, timid, and utterly useless by every measure. Her flowers bloom only to wither moments later. Forced into a one-year marriage contract, Grey plans to fulfill his duty, secure an heir, and part ways forever.
But beneath Maya's silence lies a devastating secret.
When dragons descend upon the kingdom, she unleashes a terrifying magic capable of commanding forests and bringing armies to their knees. Suddenly, the "defective" bride becomes the kingdom's greatest treasure—and the obsession of the ruthless king who once sold her.
Now Grey must protect the woman he never wanted... before he loses the mate he never knew he needed.
I actually struggled with this too! The audiobook for 'Rose Gate' seems to be in a weird licensing limbo, at least on the major platforms where I usually look. I ended up finding it on Audible, but only as a part of a collection with other titles from the same author, not as a standalone purchase. It's a little frustrating because the search function on their site isn't great at pulling it up unless you have the exact collection title.
If you're like me and prefer to own your files, you might check Chirp for occasional sales. I've seen it pop up there once or twice at a discount. Otherwise, checking your local library's digital service, like Hoopla or Libby, is always a solid move. The waitlist can be long, but it's free.
I was actually looking for 'Dark Rose' in audio format myself a few months back. Turns out, it can be a bit tricky because there's more than one book with that title floating around. Assuming you mean the paranormal romance one by Kristy K. James, I found it on Audible after some digging. It's not on the plus catalog though, so you'll need a credit or outright purchase.
What threw me off initially was that some ebook retailers don't always list the audio version clearly. I'd definitely check Audible first, and maybe even the author's website if you're unsure which 'Dark Rose' it is. The narrator for that one had a decent, husky voice that fit the mood, though the pacing felt a little slow in the middle chapters.
Honestly, I feel like I've looked everywhere for that one! I scoured Audible, Libby, and even checked Google Play Books because sometimes they have different regional licenses. No luck on the major platforms under that exact title. It makes me wonder if the audiobook was maybe released under a different name, or if it's one of those productions that's exclusive to a smaller publisher's website. I remember a similar thing happening with 'The Glass Serpent'—the audiobook was only on the author's Patreon for the longest time.
Maybe try searching for the author's name directly? Or see if it's bundled in a collection? If you're really determined, you could try contacting the publisher via email; I've done that before and gotten a surprisingly helpful response about where a title might be available. It's a bit of a hunt, but sometimes that's half the fun of tracking down a specific story.
Finding the 'Rose Under Fire' audiobook took me longer than expected, but Audible ended up being the most reliable. They've got it narrated by Saskia Maarleveld, who does an incredible job capturing the different voices, especially the Polish and French accents. Her performance really brings the grim reality of Ravensbrück to life in a way that just reading the text didn't for me.
I also checked my local library's digital collection through Libby, and they had a copy, though there was a waitlist. It's worth checking there if you're okay with waiting a few weeks. Sometimes I prefer buying the audiobook outright, especially for a story this heavy, so I can take my time with it without feeling rushed by a library loan period.
A word of warning—I wouldn't trust random YouTube uploads claiming to have the full thing. They're usually broken into weird chunks or have terrible audio quality that ruins the immersion. The official channels are the way to go for this one.
