Stealing Cinderella

De: A. Zavarelli, Sinister Collections

Narrado por: Kelsey Navarro, James Anderson Foster

Every royal has their dirty little secret. His was...me.

It should have been simple.

Go to the ball, meet the prince, and secure his patronage for my favorite charity.

But beneath the mask, the brooding beast of a man was not at all who I expected.

He was dark and intense and eerily quiet.

When I left, I could still feel the ghost of his touch branded into my skin.

He haunted my dreams, but I never expected to see him again.

Then he came for me.

And he took me.

And I learned that his darkness was a void I never could have conceived.

He’s the crown prince.

And, now, I’m his captive.

This is a full length stand-alone with dark themes.

An entertaining, dark fairy tale retelling

I enjoyed this when I read it and loved the audio book even more. It was well paced with plenty of drama and just enough angst to keep me entertained. Ella attends a ball intent on meeting her country's prince and convincing him to donate to the animal shelter she works at. Instead, she winds up with the infamous heir to the Norwegian throne, becoming his obsession. When he kidnaps her, she makes a deal with the devil, agreeing to stay and becoming his target for his cruelty and dark needs. Ella and Thorsen were a perfect blend of naivety and darkness. The former captured elements of the tradition innocent and sweet Cinderella and the latter a tormented, lost soul. It was an intense love story with some dark themes (elements of cruelty, rough sex, suicide, sexual abuse) that were written well. I really enjoyed both of the narrators although I found Ella to sound more Eastern European rather than French. That being said, I'm definitely not an expert. Ashleigh Zavarelli never disappoints me and this book is no different.

My favorite fairytale as an erotic tale.

Cinderella is my favorite story and the author did a great job of retelling it in a new adult version. The details were well written and brought the story to life. The narrators were perfect. There was the perfect amount of story and erotica. I really enjoyed this audio book.

A dark, romantic, twist, to an old tale!

I loved how she re-told this story, was it dark? Yes. However; it was also, intriguing, passionate, a fun twist on an old fashion tale. I would not only read this one again but I would definitely recommend it to others. It does have a trigger warning! ⚠️ Yet, most dark tales do.

Thor was the anti-hero in Stealing Cinderella. He’s a dominant male, for what that means to you, however; he has a troubled past that’s really holding him back. Ella is the heroine and spoiler alert it does have the typical Cinderella concept but then it gets naughty, with a little bdsm, etc. So it becomes the adult version….Plus there’s some added differences obviously so….Overall it was really good storyline and much more complex when compared to the original. It’s definitely worth reading!

Narration was great. Thor had an accent, supposed to be Norwegian, I’m not too familiar with that region so I don’t know how dead on it was and I know if it’s not that can tend to bother some people so be aware and listen to the sample if you’re one of those people. I don’t usually mind as long as it’s sexy. Ella had a accent too but hers was British I believe and sounded so……..

Okay

The story was okay but the female main character was ridiculously weak. I was hoping for a bit more body to the story. It is an interesting take on a classic and adds in the kinky twist, however, I was left feeling the story was lacking depth.

just another boring adaptation of Cinderella

this wasn't worth the the credit that I paid I was highly disappointed with this book I felt the anti-hero was boring and predictable really disappointed with the narration as well I couldn't understand which type of accent the narrator was going for it kept flipping around too much all in all don't waste your time or your credit with this book

Great take on Cinderella

Dark and twisty, kept me engaged. Heartfelt and heartbreaking at times. But overall great. Narration was on point.

Loved this story

Basically Fifty Shades meets Cinderella and took love advise from the back of Hustler.
If you have a bit of a twisted side you will enjoy, but if you are not into lite SM or phycologic Eff'd upness then use with caution.

Fab!

This audiobook is just as good as the book if not better. Same words, same story but when it’s read to you by amazing narrators the book is brought to life. This is a must listen to!!

Dark and beautiful

This was a really great twist on a classic tale. I loved the dark theme with lightness at the end of the tunnel.

Was a great book to listen to

I liked that it had a twist to the regular old Cinderella story. I couldn’t stop listening
