Reign of Cinders and Glass

Fated Fairytales, Book 1

De: Linsey Hall, Veronica Douglas

Narrado por: Jesse Vilinsky, Daniel Henning

In a world ruled by immortals, her only hope may lie in the heart of their darkest prince.

When my sister Belle goes missing, I venture deep into the cursed woods to find her. Ruthless vampires rule over our kingdom, and I’m terrified she’s been murdered like so many others.

As I’m searching, I’m caught by the worst immortal of them all: Prince Cassius, dark Lord of the Bloodvale. I barely escape with my life, and the memory of his cruel beauty haunts me. So does the thought that Belle might be in his castle.

When I join the mortal resistance, I get the chance to infiltrate his stronghold. I’ll find Belle and fight the vampires from within. It’s not easy. I’m worked to the bone by a pair of wicked sisters and danger abounds, but the secrets I discover are worth it.

The castle is filled with magic… and so am I.

I’ll have to keep my mission and power hidden if I want to survive, but the prince’s stormy gaze follows me everywhere. When he chooses me as his personal servant, can I hide the truth? Or will the magnetic pull between us drag me to my doom?

Reign of Cinders and Glass is a standalone Cinderella romantasy with vampires, a dark prince, and a powerful heroine who will endure any risk to save the people she loves. Prepare for action, danger, and a steamy romance with a HEA.

This adult Cinderella retelling includes: a strong heroine with a secret power, a brooding vampire prince who is obsessed with the heroine, touch her and die, enemies to lovers, a one-horse moment, found family, discovery of magic, as well as Cinderella favorites: a masquerade ball, a handsome prince, wicked vampire sisters, devoted animal friends, a (tipsy) fairy godmother, and, of course, a Happily Ever After.

Love love love!

loved this. what a fun twist of a classic. can't wait for the next in the series!

Okay retell but badly miscast male reader

This audiobook would have been so much better had it not miscasted with a flamboyantly gay male reader that has such a (not even remotely sexy) tone of voice. There is no suspension of disbelief here. He doesn't even really try. Generally we listen for the sexy escape, not to feel like my gay friend is reading a story to me.. He really ruins the read and is a bit cringy and comical at times. Chapter 65 was supposed to be sexy but was terrible 😫
The female reader has a better male persona than the male reader. They just should have paid her to do the entire book. I literally dreaded each part he read. It's really unfortunate, and I hope they didn't recast him for the sequel.

This reminded me of what a 5 star read is!!!

I was drawn in from the very first chapter! I couldn’t wait to know what happened next! It set the bar for a 5 star read!

Male reader, not for me

I think this story had some potential, if I could give any advice I’d say to read this one instead of listening to it. I almost didn’t finish this because I really couldn’t stand the reader for the male characters, to me he sounds like an old cranky (kind of annoying) man 🤷‍♀️ definitely not hot, dark, and broody….
