Heart of the Raven Prince

A Cinderella Retelling - Entangled with Fae

By: Tessonja Odette

Narrated by: Caitlin Davies, Aaron Shedlock

A playboy prince in want of a decoy bride.

A servant girl desperate for a disguise....

Raven shifter Prince Franco is every social-climbing debutante’s dream. He’s handsome, heir to the Lunar Court throne, and deliciously single. Every young woman wants to bed him, wed him, or steal a moment of his time. Except, of course, for Ember Montgomery.

Half-fae Ember craves freedom from her conniving step-family. As if they weren’t enough to deal with, a chance encounter with the arrogant Prince Franco leaves her humiliated and in a fiery rage. Nothing could convince her the prince is anything but a rake. But when the opportunity to evade her scheming stepmother falls into her lap, she’ll pay the price - even if it means impersonating the prince’s newest flame....

To prove himself a worthy heir, Prince Franco must marry a princess. But after far too many unsatisfying trysts, he’s given up on love. With the social season in full swing, and bringing with it a horde of husband-hungry socialites, he’ll do anything to delay the pressures of both marriage and the crown. And what better solution than an alliance with a desperate servant girl glamoured as his false future bride?

Locked in a bargain, Ember must pose as a princess until midnight at the full moon ball. Until then, all she has to do is wear the glamour, pretend to court the prince, and above all else, not fall in love. But when feelings emerge on both sides, she starts to wonder if there’s more to their contrived courtship than either of them planned....

Can Ember and Franco find love when the masks come off? Or will illusions and lies prove stronger than their hearts?

A Court of Thorns and Roses meets Bridgerton in this stand-alone fairy-tale retelling of Cinderella. If you like slow-burn romance, fake engagements, and snarky fae royals, then you’ll love this swoon-worthy story in the Entangled with Fae series.

Note: This book is upper young adult/new adult, featuring mature situations and some adult language. The romance is slow-burn but leads to moderate steam.

Heart of the Raven Prince is a complete stand-alone novel set in the same world as the Fair Isle Trilogy. Journey back to Faerwyvae or begin your adventure for the first time with this enchanting tale. Each book in the Entangled with Fae series can be listened to on its own and in any order. Happily ever after guaranteed!

One of the best

This was one of the best Cinderella stories I have listened to or read. I will read/watch/listen to almost any Cinderella story but this one made me feel so much emotion. Beautiful story, and the readers did a good job. I would love it if this were a movie!

Worth every minute!

This was so heartfelt! The characters were beautifully created and woven together perfectly. Definitely my favorite retelling of Cinderella!

Cute story, good performance

It’s a cute Cinderella story and even helps build into the The Mermaid Story. Wish it would have been a little longer so the author could’ve gotten into more detail of how they fell in love. Overall good performance by both Caitlin and Aaron.

The twist on Cinderella I never knew I needed!

Another fairytale, another book I fell head over heels for.

This is a twist on Cinderella that quickly became my favorite! None of that nonsense about a prince not recognizing a woman he supposedly fell in love with one beautiful night. No, we have a love story full of hidden identities, mysterious bargains and banter!! The chemistry between these two was so heartwarming and wholesome! Fluffy, feel good fantasy romance right here!

I don’t think I stopped smiling at any point during this book. The prince is a fae raven shifter and our main character Ember is the unfortunate half fae stepdaughter to a wicked creature her father decided to marry. Always repressed and always blamed for the murder of her father, Ember has been kept in the shadows and held for her inheritance. Until one day, she gets a letter sending her (and unfortunately her family) to a ball that changes everything.

Let me tell you- this story has a satisfying happily ever after with deserved retribution.

Excellent narration by both narrators! Very much looking forward to the next books!
