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

Product Information

nbspHeart of the Raven Prince is a complete stand-alone novel set in the same world as The Fair Isle Trilogy. Their relationship was slow burn, going from hate to friendship and then to love, offering us delicious banter, touching confessions, sweet scenes and a little bit of steam. The 'enemies to lovers' banter felt pretty lame when they fell so deeply in love in just the span of 14 days. I will honestly say I went into this book because of this phrase “ ACOTAR meets Bridgerton in this standalone fairytale retelling of Cinderella“.

Just because your namesake places you amongst ash and cinders, doesn’t mean you should seek cosmetics from a chimney. Her writing is that kind that pulls you in with the first line you read and lets you out only after you are broken, satisfied and a mess!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. When she isn’t writing, she’s watching dog videos or having dance parties in the kitchen with her daughter.

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. 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.Both characters had a lot of obstacles and doubt that initially made it difficult to understand and like each other, especially as Ember is limited in things she can say due to the constraints of her previous bargains and Franco had a tendency to hold back and not correct incorrect assumptions.

Since Cinderella would have been too obvious, Ember was such a great choice and definitely perfect for this MC. But when feelings emerge on both sides, she starts to wonder if there's more to their contrived courtship than either of them planned.

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.

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. But when he discovers she's an impostor and still allows her to play her part, pretense and honesty mingle with a long awaited result: happiness for both of them, whatever that may mean for each. He was such a powerful and impressive Fae that no one really tried to see beneath the facade he had created and I think it was wonderful to see how much emotion he actually had and how big his heart was.

Heart Of The Raven Prince had one of the sweetest slow burns I've read in a while, and with a hint of enemies to lovers, this was right up my alley.

Wanting past the bluster and sparkle and having been wounded by the past and being very wary of the future.
