About this listen

An inter-connected romantasy perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas

Lucien Thorne is the most vile monster in all of Thorngate. As Winter King, he rules our land with an iron fist and a cold, dead heart. And my father has just informed me that I am betrothed to marry him…

As the Princess of Fall, it is my duty to marry whatever suitor my father chooses for me, but even duty can’t make me spend the rest of my life with someone like Lucien. However the more time I spend with this mysterious man, the more I wonder if the rumours about him are even true.

As I get to know the real Lucien, I start to discover the secrets and dark history of his family. A history that explains his ruthless behaviour… And one I plan to expunge if I am ever to live out my life in the Winter Palace in peace.

As much as I want to hate Lucien Thorne and everything he’s done to our realm… I cannot deny my heart.

The Ruthless Fae King is book THREE of FOUR in the Kings of Avalier series. It's a full-length enemies-to-lovers standalone fantasy romance about the Winter King Lucien Thorne.

I couldn't get passed her bad English accent

I think that it would have been better to stick to her own accent when playing the King's voice. The attempt at a posh English accent was really distracting and off-putting. Some words were pronounced correctly but then randomly there'd be an American twang.

Other than that, her reading was really good! not robotic at all, it was smooth and with the right amount of inflections at the right time.

The story was a little slow moving for me, not much world building but a pleasant listen anyway.

Great story but it's too dark for me

Be warned about the abuse and sexual assault, it is a big trigger for a lot of people, so if you can't handle it, don't buy this.

Trigger Warning! R**E

I really wished I had read other people’s reviews before i started listening, I just bought the book because it was next on the series.
I was cruising along listening to the book them bam! Felt like I was punched in the gut. It’s made me so Fking angry that her choice was taken away from her by men. She reunited with her love and they get their happy reunion.

Had potential, but but for me

The book has a great story line and definitely had potential! Unfortunately I found some of the dialogue pretty juvenile. I got about half way through and had to stop.
