A fairytale retelling, but by Scarlett St Clair?! Yes. Please. 

I LOVE fairytale retellings. Adult, YA, children’s…doesn’t matter, I’m here for them all. Having enjoyed previous books from the author, I knew I’d be enjoying a spicy adult retelling and I was absolutely correct. I love it. 

Princes, beasts, breaking curses?? Sound familiar?? Well the way this unfolds is relatively predictable (it is a retelling after all) the journey to get there as well as the many different aspects of the characters makes it an entirely different story than any of the other retellings available for this story. 

The spice is definitely there, we’re headed for love to break curses of course, and that love comes in many forms in here. 

The audio was great too. The narrators knocked it out of the park telling us this story. It’s pretty short and it’s really enjoyable. 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
