Heart of the Raven Prince: A Cinderella Retelling (Entangled with Fae)

Product Information

I have yet to read a book by her when I would go "Oh, I think this will take me a week to read" or "I'm not in a mood to continue reading, but have to push myself". Ember is half-fae and lives with her step-mother and two stepsisters after a bargain she made, which stated she will have to live and obey them until she turns 19. Of course, Franco and Ember crossing their paths for the first time doesn't go quite well, igniting a spark of hate in Ember's heart for the Prince.

The thing that I love about YA or NA fantasy romance is, because of the minimum focus on spice scenes, the characters have the chance to get to know each other through actions and conversation instead of sweaty physical activities. Outside of the plot and writing that was a bullseye for me, there were some thoughtfulness that the author drops into the story. I’m a sucker for anything fairytale related and this did not dissapoint<33 This is a cinderella retelling set in a world with fae.ANyway, good story, and now I'm probably going to ruin my social life (again) by reading the other two books in this not-series. But when feelings emerge on both sides, she starts to wonder if there's more to their contrived courtship than either of them planned. Circumstances strengthen the string of fate and Ember finds herself in yet again another bargain where she has to pretend to be the royal princess and court Franco.

Overall this was a great read and I think I’ve found an Author whose other books I must really look into as this book is the second in a series of retellings.I think they brought the best in each other and they both had much more to gain than a mate; Franco found love but also the strength to stop hiding his real self, to live up to his worth and to become someone great, while Ember finally managed to accept and actually love her power and discover a place where she belonged. It also follows Franco, a fae prince who is misunderstood and rarely lets people see/know his true self to the point that he lets people spread a reputation about him that is mostly a series of unfortunate misunderstandings.

As for a retelling of Cinderella this book captured all the main aspects of the tale without it being too much like the original. 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. nbspHeart of the Raven Prince is a complete stand-alone novel set in the same world as The Fair Isle Trilogy. The other books in the series take on different fairytales so if cinderella isn't your cup of tea I'd def recommend one of the other ones!When she isn’t writing, she’s watching dog videos or having dance parties in the kitchen with her daughter.

None of that nonsense about a prince not recognizing a woman he supposedly fell in love with one beautiful night. everything, as the story goes, falls into place as it should and thus, justice has been served and love prevails. My frustration when Ember was backed into a corner only enhanced my feelings and attachments towards the story and characters. 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.It’s just so good and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves romancy books, because this is the perfect combination of romance and fantasy! 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. He was sweet, funny and caring, while also being really sensitive and vulnerable in a way not many male MCs are portrayed. A beautiful faerie universe, an amazing magic system, fun and interesting characters, an intriguing plot and a romance that is to die for! He also has a reputation that proceeds him, so every woman or mother is throwing themselves or their daughters at him.
