A nice and short read! I love the classic fairytale elements tied into the plot.
I’m quickly becoming a fan of Knox’s works. :)

Santana Knox never disappoints when it comes to her writing.
Without warning, she dropped this novella into the FB group and bolted. I immediately bought it and read it so quickly. I know it is meant to be a spicy and quick read novella, but I want more. I need more of the two main characters. That need is exactly why I will always recommend her books. Santana has a way of creating such unique and captivating books that I want to remain in the characters world and crave more of their adventures/stories. Definitely recommend.

For a book only 100 pages long, the world building and character development was pretty well done. I love it when a retelling maintains the overall vibe of the original story and that was executed flawlessly in this book. The revenge aspect was the only part that kept me from giving this book 5 stars. I just think that part felt a little rushed and out of place but overall the story was incredible.

I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable this novella was! It had a whimsical and enchanting quality to it that reminded me of a classic fairy tale, but with a refreshingly spicy edge.
The story was a mashup of various fairy tales, but with a unique twist. The traditional knight in shining armor was replaced by the alluring warlock. And let's be honest, who needs a knight when you have a captivating warlock!
The chemistry between the warlock and Clara was truly captivating. They were both cursed, yet somehow found solace in each other's company. It was a beautiful and unconventional love story that left me feeling thoroughly enchanted.

4,5 stars - a fun, sweet (with elements of darkness) and spicy mix of lots of fairytales all in one hot package. A fun little bitesized story that I wish had been longer; I would have loved to learn more about the mysterious MMC!
