Resumen del Editor

On the surface, the world glitters with all things only money can buy. My thoughts should be on the danger lurking beneath the surface. The money and power come from places and dealings the world pretends don't exist. I'm here at this debutante ball as a representative of the new Sparrow underworld. The clock is ticking as alliances are formed and enemies eliminated.

There isn't time to be distracted, and yet I catch a glimpse of the stunning woman across the room.

Surely, she's untouchable to someone like me. Maybe she's royalty or the daughter of a dignitary. Yet I'm drawn to her in a way I can't describe. Her beautiful, seductive smile, bright emerald eyes, and luscious red hair beckon me until I find myself by her side.

Her voice sings to me while her laugh shines sunlight into my dark and dangerous world.

And then the clock strikes midnight and she's gone.

I want more than that first kiss.

From New York Times best-selling author Aleatha Romig comes an intriguing and fun prologue to her newest romantic-suspense trilogy, Dangerous Web: Danger's First Kiss - a modern Cinderella story.

This novella is set in the dangerous world of the Sparrow Webs. You do not need to hear Web of Sin, Tangled Web, or Web of Desire to get caught up in this new dark-romance saga, Dangerous Web.

Cute

Very cute intro...but tale as old as time. Modern twist. I am sure there are twist and turns in the following books.

Great Story!

4.5 stars
First, let me say that I love all things in the Sparrow world and to see how Lorna and Reid meet was a good start. I only wish there was more. But I know there will be so I am not going to be sad for too long.
Lorna and Mason are the best brother and sister, always taking care of each other. She is independent, sassy, and hard-working. He is an alpha male and sometimes overprotective. This is a look into their world after they got away from their toxic mother and he got back from the military. And Lorna had graduated high school. So life moves on and Mason wants to keep Lorna safe.
While at a "ball" she meets Mr. tall, dark, and handsome, aka Reid. But at midnight the fairy tale ends and she goes back to cleaning rooms.
As this series progresses through each couple, their backstories can sometimes be heartbreaking. But please keep reading as with all of the series I have read from author Aleatha Romig, she has a way of breaking your heart and putting it back together and making you love the characters even more. So jump in the Sparrow world with both feet and fall in love. I can not wait for more with Lorna and Reid. And I look forward to reading the rest of these dark fairy tales.

If you're a cusser, it speaks your language.

Major overuse of the word F**king. The plot was good. I personally prefer male narrators, so for me that was a negative.

Intriguing

A fantastic introduction to the Dangerous Web series. This is told from Lorna's POV and her upbringing with her siblings, but this is the beginning of Reid and Lorna's journey. Definitely intriguing! Cannot wait to see what comes next.

ready for the next!

this made me curious about the other books so I'm trying the first. definitely a twist

Perfect prequel

I Love the Sparrow web books and I adore Lorna. She's amazing and learning how she and Reid first connected was so Cinderella-esk and romantic. Even includes the shoes. Lol

Better than expectations!

I highly recommend this book. The fairytale references are weaved into the story line seamlessly!

Great start to Lorna and Reid's story

This was a great start to Lorna and Reid's story. It piqued my curiosity about Sparrow and Lorna's brother Mason's involvement in that organization as well as the other books in the series. In helping him out by attending a ball, Lorna meets Reid. I am sure there is much more to their story. Sarah McEwan did a very good job with the narration.

lured me in and gave me more to hope for

From the darkness comes some light. A somewhat current day telling of Cinderella get her chance to go to the ball. Not the prince but her prince claims her heart from across a room and then up close. There was no merry hunt to fing the redheaded princess but the quickie lead to want to know more about Lorna and Reid. Sarah McEwen brought the words off the page and in full color in my head.

Great beginner romance book

I dont usually listen to romance but needed up loving it and would listen to more like it to mix in with the other genres I gravitate to
