Fable of Happiness

I look forward to more of this intriguing storytelling. If you decide to follow thru with Jereth storyline of tracking down the rest of the brother and sister. I would find it to be worthy a read . Jereth polite is a story to tell . Not so much the raw killing . Don't ever change the duo make and female voices on you Audible. Two voices are and always will enhance the reading of a novel. I will repeat myself. This series was raw, addicting, decadent and very intense at times. Worthy read!

Please Tell Me This Will Continue With Jareth!

Always well written, intense stories with angsty characters surviving horrendous situations. Monumental hate, healing, and love...

Best series of the year!

There are books I listen to, then there are books that linger. This one is lingering, you know that book hangover that won't let you dive into the next one. I knew this series was going to be phenomenal. It's based on my favorite fairy tale. Then Pepper Winters blows me away with the first two in the series leaving me a need for answers and resolution. I wasn't prepared for the emotional wear and tear on my heart! We pick up where book 2 leaves off, and meet Kas's brother Jareth. Not sure about his motives in the beginning, he is rough, dangerous and a little crazy. But his heart is true and remains with his family. Kass is wary, but he knows his brother. And when Jareth does the unthinkable, Kas and Gemma's life will change forever. Taking in everything that has happened, I am in awe of the story. To know it's a fairy tale, but realize the horrors do exist is mind boggling. Then we have the characters. Gemma is fantastic. By his side from start to finish, her love is unconditional and it pours through Kas. She is the calm and she knows he is worth the fight. Now to Kas. What a superb character. His emotional journey still has me torn up. His darkness is a huge part of him, and to see the goodness shining through made my listening experience incredibly breathtaking. And on that, I will start the narration.

Tor Thom and Charley Ongel are the story tellers, and I can't say enough good things about this performance. I am not a person who cries when I listen, but this story, this team, this gut wrenching emotional journey had tears in my eyes, love in my heart and a need to hear more. Thom is exceptional as Kas. He pours himself into this tortured soul, and you can tell he is feeling every single thing Kas does. Ongel's portrayal of Gemma comes through with a feeling of comfort and love that is second to none. Winters knew what these two would bring to our ears, and it is nothing short of perfect.

Believable Story

This series was really good. The story and the characters are very believable. I’m sorry there are only three books in this series. I was sad for it to end.

Emotional read

Fable of Happiness 3 was such an emotional ride. I loved it so much. it truly was such an emotionally powerful book. It takes you on Kas's path of mentally and emotionally healing. I love how much Gemma loves and trusts Kas. She is willing to do anything for him and understands his limits and needs. The part where Kas finds Fang was the break through and had me crying. Kas went through so much but is willing to do whatever he can to save/help others like him. Tor Thom and Charley Ongel are fantastic narrators. You can feel the struggles and emotions of both characters. Amazing job with this book/series Pepper Winters. It is one that will stick with me forever.

intense and emotional

The trilogy is over, and I have no idea what to do with my life now. This story is on a whole new level of dark romance. It’s raw, emotional, twisted, powerful, commanding, distributing, and erotically mesmerizing. This final book is about healing, strength, loyalty, and love. Gemma and Kassen have an uncontrolled passion for each other that only intensifies with each book. Their story is cataclysmic, manic, savage, and all-consuming. The storyline and characters are so intricate and unique, and the setting is beautiful, despite the horrors in Fables’ history. The ending was beyond perfect. The strength it took for Kas to work his pain and give himself fully to Gem is awe inspiring. Their relationship is full of honestly, loyalty, trust, and determination. Together, they can conquer anything life throws at them. Pepper Winters, thank you for Kas’ beautiful journey. You had me in tears. You’ve truly outdone yourself. I don’t want to give away anything because this is one of those stories you must experience for yourself. But be forewarned, there are major trigger warnings with this trilogy, and not recommended for anyone with sensitivities to certain traumatic aspects. 5-Zillion Emotional Stars!

Tor Thom and Charley Ongel are absolutely perfect for the roles of Gemma and Kassen. The way they expertly duet this book (in dual narration format) will leave you captivated and on the edge of your seat. The push and pull between Gemma and Kassen throughout the series was intense, as was the whole storyline in general. There were so many different emotions ranging from anger and violence to love, along with extremely emotional and gut-wrenching scenes of abuse, processing pain, and healing. Tor and Charley made you feel all this intensity in heart. This was storytelling at its best. Kas is such a tortured soul who’s endured far more than most could manage. Tor brilliantly portrayed him. Charley reflected Gemma’s kindness and selflessness so perfectly. You could feel the love Gem felt through Charley’s voice. These two narrators were connected body and soul to their characters, and it showed. 1000% MUST listen!!!

Wow. Epic.

I was already hooked but this completely took me through the ringer. The narrators are just absolutely perfect for these characters. They pull me in and never let go. My heart was all over the place. I burned with them and for them. Such an epic conclusion. Wish I could listen to it for the first time again. But I know I will definitely have to listen to this whole series again. There is just so much emotional depth in their voices. I never wanted it to end.

Dark and thrilling!

That ending was superb! FABLE OF HAPPINESS, Book 3 is the twist worthy conclusion to the Fable Trilogy that we were waiting for with baited breath from the moment we experienced that cliffhanger from Book 2. The emotions! The drama! What a ride! I was consumed with every word and didn’t come up for air. What an utterly mind-boggling! It oozes with lust, love, desire, danger, sacrifice, power and control, and drags you deep into its darkness, intrigue and suspense that is all rolled up into one deliciously dark and twisted package. Pepper Winters know how to grab a reader in her clutches and keep them captivated with her storytelling. This is Kas and Gemma’s final story that is full of surprises—I was flabbergasted with the unexpected revelations that happened, but it was jaw-dropping good! I loved it! Kas stole my heart in how he adapted and was protective of Gemma. Gemma was so strong that she was a force to be reckoned with. I am absolutely flippant over how fantastic this edgy, dark, and heart-stopping romance is. This story will keep you on the edge of your seat to find out what happened next. This story took me through several emotional gamuts and pushed all my buttons, boundaries. Kas and Gemma’s attraction and chemistry is so intense, alluring and mesmerizing, binding them to one another perfectly. What happens next? Well, read this amazing story and find out—you won’t regret it! Pepper Winters has constructed a deliciously dark romance that will lure you into the wee hours and beyond that you won’t be able to put this book down. This is a MUST READ, but you have to read Books 1 and 2 first. Loved the narrators. This was exceptionally done!!

So Worth It

I’ve listened to hundreds of books and this is my first review. This series is heart wrenching, but so so good. I believe more people need to read books like this to open there eyes to reality. It may be a fictional story but unfortunately I am aware that stuff like this happens.

Excellent!

First off, I actually started this series based on the duet narration from Tor Thom and Charley Ongel. This author was new to me and I am generally not a fan of fairy tale renditions.

I was surprised that I ended up liking this story as much as I did. It's very well written and the duet narration is amazing. I was fully engaged and anxious to start the next title in the series as soon as the last page was turned. There are dark twisted components to the story that may be triggering to some, but I think it was injected well. It adds depth and understanding to the H's character development.

I am surprised that there aren't more reviews for this one- it is definitely credit-worthy and I hope more readers give it a shot.

Personally, I've read a lot of good books - that have crappy audio versions. Because of that, I think it's important to weigh in on the ones that are done very well. So that: 1) they get on the radar of other avid readers, and 2) the authors can be recognized for making the effort to have the audio done well. That is just something for you to keep in mind if you (like myself) find that you have spent far too much money/credits on audiobooks that truly suck.
