Audiobook Narration: 10/10 📚🎧

I fear I’ll say this every time I read a Giana Darling book, but she never fails me.

I’ve never seen a book title be so incredibly accurate. My dark Fairy Tale is exactly that—the most romantic fairy tale I’ve ever read. But beneath all the beauty and romance lies the weight of an ever-present secret and an inevitable separation, casting a bittersweet, melancholic tone over the entire story.

Raffa and Guinevere only have six weeks together, but they make the most of every single second—and you can’t help but fall in love right alongside them.

Raffa is your classic mafia boss: ruthless, closed off, and dangerous. But around Guinevere, we see a soft, tender side he hides from the rest of the world. It’s impossible not to swoon when he lets his guard down.

Guinevere is a sweet, vulnerable FMC trying to find herself after growing up with a medical condition, overly protective parents, and the recent loss of her sister. As she spends more time with Raffaele, we slowly see her come into her own, and it’s such a beautiful transformation to witness.

Even though I saw the ending coming, it still absolutely wrecked me.

I cannot wait for the next book and for them to (hopefully!) get their happily ever after.


But ALSO—I have so many questions I need answered!
Who is her dad?
Why does Raffa’s second-in-command keep saying she looks like someone he knew—maybe her sister?
Where are the postcards???

I received this book as a Advance Listened copy, thank you to Giana and her team for the audiobook ♥️
