Fairy Tale Retelling, Book 2

De: Scarlett St. Clair

Narrado por: Victoria Aston, Liam Price

This woman had carved her name in my heart long ago and I still bled from that open wound.

She was my curse and I wanted to be free.

Orphaned at a young age, Samara has been left under the care of her three horrible brothers for many long years. But just when she thinks she cannot take another day of their abuse, a handsome prince offers for her hand in marriage.

Samara's brothers agree to the wedding in exchange for a large dowry, but on her way to salvation in her new kingdom, her carriage is ambushed and she is rescued by Lore, the wicked Prince of Nightshade, who demands a favor in return. Samara believes that Lore's request is meant to punish her for her crimes against his kind . . . but punishment is only half of Lore's plan.

The truth is that the Elven Prince has pined after Samara for seven long years. His power over poisons rivals none in the Enchanted Forest, but Samara is a new kind of toxin in his blood, and all he can think about. Can the Prince of Nightshade manage to find a remedy, or will he succumb to her love?

Contains mature themes.

If I could jump into a book to throat punch someone I would

I absolutely loved this books. There isn't anything Scarlett St. Clair writes that I don't love. BUT the amount of times I wanted to throat punch someone on behalf of Samara was wild. I loved how the romance built up. Fox was also a favorite character of mine. if you know, you know. 10 out of 10.

Story creative & worth listening too

I’ve always been a fan of Scarlett St. Clair, and as always, find her fairytale retellings entertaining! However, the performance of this audiobook felt super robotic and the dialogue of the story felt a bit rushed and stiff. Still worth reading!

Good stand alone

Loved the story and how it’s a stand alone but incorporates the other stories. The ending was underwhelming, and very abrupt. It left me with questions!! I think the ending could have had more detail and explanations linking the beginning of the story and middle parts. Overall another good book by Scarlett St Clair

beautiful quick story

ending seemed a little abrupt? Otherwise the story was beautiful and the narrators were perfection.

Great retelling

This has been on my tbr for a while now and I’m so glad I finally got a chance to listen to the audio! The narrators did a fantastic job!
