Publisher's summary

Spinning straw into gold was only the beginning of the story....

Marie, the dutiful princess of Northhelm, chafes under the rigid protocol that governs her life. Then a growing darkness threatens the kingdom and uncovers the lie at the center of her whole life - a single pact that changes everything.

Throwing off convention, she joins Rafe, a handsome, charming newcomer, on a quest to save her kingdom. Except he doesn't know she has a mission of her own - to discover the truth about her identity. Increasingly drawn to Rafe's strength and good humor, Marie is torn by her double purpose. With time running out and death and destruction looming, Marie will have to unravel the bargains that surround her and choose where her true allegiance lies.

In this twist on the classic fairy tale, Rumpelstiltskin, a hidden identity is just one of the things Marie will have to unravel.

Conflicted

I am torn about leaving this review because I loved the story (as always!) and I really like the narrator for the most part, BUT her voice for Rafe was so painful and cheesy to listen to that it totally turned me off to the character. Which kind of ended up ruining the book for me. I couldn’t take him seriously! His accent was so over the top and ridiculous sounding it was hard to see him as a credible love interest. I love this narrator most of the time but her male voices are very hit and miss. I had the same problem with Prince Dominic in Beauty and the Beast. Still, she did a great job with the other voices and the story was fantastic.
