Thrown into the supernatural world, Rose must learn to adapt to her new identity. But learning the truth about her reality turns out to be much more than she thought. Determined to protect herself, she begins training for the battle ahead. One of her mates could be the key to her success or failure.

Surrounded by the dark, Rose must venture on a dangerous journey leading her places she never could have imagined. As decisions are made, new facts emerge and her relationships are tested. The result will set the stage for the course of her life. With growing expectations, Rose's destiny looms closer as she discovers which side to fight for.

fantastic...but incomplete. Where's book 3?

I've binged read the book, binged listened to the audiobook... but I wouldn't have wasted my time for an incomplete series! I cannot find book #3 anywhere. Embracing Aurora is book 3, so I know it exists, but I've been left not knowing how it ends! seriously, I wouldn't have wasted the money or time on a series that leaves you hanging forever. I'm so disappointed.

Sleeping Beauty

Briar is still trying to figure out what all she encompasses aside from being fae. With her mates by her side, she is getting stronger at wielding her powers. There is a war coming and they need to be prepared for when Rumple tries to come for her. I am really enjoying this sleeping beauty twist of a series.

A Slow-Burn Atypical Reverse Harem

Interesting take on a classic fairy tale. And I'm not just talking about the reverse harem aspect, but the whole introduction to Rumplestiltskin, and other paranormal creatures. Who would have guessed that the King of the Underworld has a role to play in here as well?! The threat of danger looms near and they're scrambling to figure out a battle plan. I wish there was more relationship-bonding time between Rose and the guys too. But maybe that happened in the first book, and I was at a disadvantage having only listened to the second. I found the first half of the book more intriguing as it focuses on the Underworld with Bael taking the reigns as the heir to Satain. Aside from him, I just couldn't connect with the rest of the other mates.

Rose took on the cliché role of the annoying heroine who thinks she can take on the big bad all by herself because she doesn't want anyone else to get hurt because of her. Briary Rose's lack of control over her temper and knee-jerk reaction of showing off her fire power trick is going to get her into a whole lot of trouble one day. Plus her slamming the door, stomping down the stairs tantrum didn't help either. I'm hoping she will mature and others will also treat her as their equal. With all that said, I'd like to see how everything will play out. So far, the guys haven't quite accepted the idea of sharing Rose, so there hasn't been any group participation. I'm hoping that the last book will change things up for them. :P #AudiobookObsessionReviewer
