Twisted

The Never After Series

De: Emily McIntire

Narrado por: Sandi Hunts, Marcio Catalano

From BookTok sensation Emily McIntire comes a dark and delicious fractured fairy tale reimagining of Aladdin.

She’s his diamond in the rough. He’s her worst nightmare.

Yasmin Karam, daughter of one of the richest men in the world, has never known strife. So, when her beloved father falls ill, she is determined to make his final days his happiest. His last wish? To see her married to a man of his choosing. Except Yasmin’s heart already belongs to someone else. A servant. A street rat. A man her father would never consider worthy.

Stuck between a rock and a hard place, Yasmin strikes a desperate deal with her father’s right-hand man, Julian, not realizing he has his own twisted agenda.

Julian Faraci has one goal: become the most powerful man in the world. He has built a future from broken bones and faded bruises, never caring who he hurt along the way. But when his mentor falls ill, he finds himself on the verge of losing everything, and he’ll stop at nothing to inherit what is rightfully his—even if it means forcing a woman he can’t stand into marriage.

Yasmin is a brat who speaks out of turn, and he’s the villain of her story. But he decides she’ll be his―no matter what it takes to convince her.

Good but could be better

The story is great, with engaging characters and situations. Sadly I felt like I missed out on something by the end. To be blunt, not enough sex! Pretty good slow burn really draws you in. It’s dual perspective so you get lots of hints of how much the M likes kink. It really felt like it was leading to some great kinky steam…and then it ended! Nothing can drive this lack home more than the second epilogue. The author clearly realizes the issue here and thoughtfully added a second epilogue that is basically just a sex scene lol.
Besides the sexual frustration problems, it’s a good story. A must have for the collection and def worth a credit.
* the female narration got a bit breathy a few times. It’s a bit awkward and annoying but not so bad that you can’t get past it.

Amazing Enemies to Lovers!!!

This was one of the most fantastic enemies to lovers book I’ve listened too! It has all kind of twists and turns.. it was emotional and beautifully written…

4 The Most Powerful Man in the World STARS

I absolutely loved Julian! He’s a villain but also he’s a broken boy underneath that just wants someone to pick him. He blackmails Yasmine to marry him and has plans to take over Sultans. Yasmine was a little more infuriating for me. She comes across as docile and she doesn’t stand up for herself when it comes to her father and Aiden. She has absolutely no issue going toe to toe with Julian and I did like that. I get why she wanted to do as her father said but also I wanted to shake her. While I did like the book it was way too slow for me. I kept waiting for the smexy times to happen and once they did there wasn’t enough, hence the 4 star rating.

Narration was really good and I feel like both narrators nailed their characters.

Enemy to lovers done right!!!

Good story by Emily McIntire again...This one is more of a slow burn than some of her others though. The enemy to lovers trope was done fabulously! Impatiently waiting for the next book!!!!

Great storyline

The voice actors love it i really enjoy this book! The storyline was amazing enjoyed it

My Favorite so far!

I’ve read three of the five releases in this series and i absolutely ate this up! Narration was great (wasn’t a huge fan of the male
Narrators voice for any female-but wasn’t frequent enough to stop listening because of it)
Listened at 1.75x speed and no issues with clarity though narration
Spice is on the lighter side 2/5 but the plot was an absolute 5 for me!

The narrator's did an impeccable job!

Another fantastic story. I'm going to be sad when I finish this series. A big shout out to the narrators!

Thisssssss!!!!

Ok this is definitely a good one! My 3rd favorite in the series! Great narration!
