Resumen del Editor

Four beastly princes. One awkward bookworm. An enchanted world of fae, magic, and danger.

I’ve always loved fairytales. I never imagined I'd actually be in one.

When my father wanders into the enchanted realm of the fae, I know I have to go after him. And when he gets imprisoned, I'll do anything to save him, even trade my freedom for his. I had no idea I'd end up imprisoned by four sexy fae who turn into beasts at night.

I have to win my freedom, and that means making a bargain with them. They must find their mates in order to break the curse. If I can help them do that, they'll set me free. Sounds simple, right?

It's not. Because against my better judgment, I'm starting to fall for these beastly princes. One is smart and sweet, the other mysterious and deadly, another flirty and confident. The last prince is handsome, strong, has a wicked temper, and is dead-set against breaking the curse. Why does he want to keep me here forever?

But it's not just my freedom on the line. If I don't break the princes' curse soon, all the magic in the Enchanted Vale will be stolen by the evil—and stupidly hot—Prince of Thorns. And I'm not letting my princes stay cursed.

Not after I've fallen in love with them.

Bonded by Thorns is a steamy adult Beauty and the Beast retelling set in a fantasy fae realm. In this version, our beautiful bookworm doesn't have to choose between the four sexy fae princes. It is a full-length novel that ends on a cliffhanger. It includes MF and MM content. It is intended for mature listeners only.

Love the story so far

I love this story so far I am only at chapter 25 I have the audio and the kindle so I’m switching between the two SO with that being said I noticed the audio is missing Ezryn’s chapters so far. I can’t wait to see how this goes!

So good

I came across this book recommendation on the author's Tik Tok and went in blind, without reading the description or reviews. I'm sort of glad I did because I didn't realize it was a retelling and it was so fun to be like "...Wait but... wait. That's familiar." for the first few chapters before I was sure it was a retelling. Haha. My only regret is listening to this before the second book is out because I am itching to keep reading! I highly recommend picking up this book, it's spicy and fun, and the author did an amazing job painting a picture of the FMC that was decidedly not your typical default. She is curvy and witty and I love her. Though she can be a bit whiny, who isn't?

Interesting

I enjoy retellings, fae, and rh. This was a no brainer to try with its combo of all three. It wasn’t a perfect story but I am eager to see where the authors take it.

Cute and slightly predictable

It’s not groundbreaking but I really enjoyed it. The visuals of everything are really nice and very well written. I’m excited to read the next book and am glad the third was just recently released!

Familiar comfort with spice, depth, & suspense.

I’m a big fan of reimagined classic fairytales. I went into the he story thinking I know how this was going to go maybe with a little spice & intensity added in. I was shook more and more as the story progressed. So much character depth, delicious spice, emotional investment, & a plot that’s getting thicker and thicker. I absolutely cannot wait for the next audiobook to be released. I’m dying to know!!!!!

The men

This is way better than acotar. This is how a retelling of beauty and the best should be. Though The very graphic gay sex chapter I skipped through. I’m down for the spicy I just wasn’t expecting it between men lmao.

Captivating, Romantic, and tons of fun!

Cannot wait for the next one 😍

A dark, fantastical, and engaging story. the subtle changes from the inspiration really made it feel like the workings of a modern classic.. and pretty.. ynow 😳🥵

loved the performances, totally sold the world and made the charming princes and lovely Rosalina come alive!!

"...why should I
feel guilt for wanting to escape to somewhere else, even for a little while?"

Incredible!

If you like slow-burn, why choose, and fated fae mates then this is your book! ACOTAR was the last book series that caught me in and this one has done the same!! Woven by Gold is just as enthralling. Absolutely can’t wait for December for Forged by Malice.

I can’t wait for the next book!

I was on the edge of my seat the whole time soooo good! Time went by so fast i hadn’t even realized.

Amazing Re-Telling

This series is my absolute favorite Beauty and the Beast retelling. Robert does a wonderful job of portraying the 4 princes and giving good variety to their voices. Elizabeth Helen wrote a wonderful story and I love all 3 books already released in this series. Having the 4 different seasons/realms in one castle makes for such good imagery and being able to transport yourself while reading.
