About this listen

Can one find hope when all is lost?

Once every thousand years, two souls are entwined, uniting the powers of the kingdoms.

But what if your soul is connected to your enemy?

King Marc’s father betrayed Arianna’s family and stole her kingdom, and all she wants is revenge. Disguised as a lowly tanner, Arianna works with the rebels, and when King Marc asks her to marry him, she agrees only so she can steal his throne. How long can she hide her identity and mission from a husband who unknowingly shares her powers and is determined to know her past?

Dark forces push the kingdoms back toward war, and Marc submits to the marriage law only to preserve the peace. But when he marries a minute past midnight, he is forced to abdicate, leaving him a mere commoner, and as he comes to know his wife, he realizes that her secrets could destroy them all.

“A Last Hope,” a retelling of King Thrushbeard, is a standalone novella, complete with tropes like destined soulmates, enemies to lovers, and hidden identity. It is part of the “Hope Ever After” series, a collection of twenty hopeful and uplifting fairy tale retellings. Each book is written by a different author so it can be enjoyed in any order. The proceeds from this series are donated to the O.U.R. (Operation Underground Rescue) to rescue children from exploitation and trafficking.

The main characters had depth and a relationship that interested me because they were interesting people set into an impossible situation.
As you read this story, you’re never quite sure who the good guys are who the bad guys are and how this is going to end up there’s so many twists and turns and surprises along the way . This is fast paced you just keep reading and then you have another surprise or you’re introduced to another character. I just kept going and going wanting to find out what was going to happen next it was never ugly or terrible often surprising. And this man, the hero he wouldn’t give up. He just kept going and going. He was supposed to be king and then he was not.!! How could that be??
You have to read the book. It is so worth it buy this book you won’t regret it. It makes you laugh out loud when you least expect it and then he’s got this crazy pet. Another big surprise.
At the end, you find out who the good guys are and who the bad guys are.
It all works out in the end.
I absolutely love this story!!
Highly recommend this story I love the fantasy! I read this on Kindle. I was so happy to see it on Audible bought it right away. The AI performance is exceptional. A very pleasant surprise thank you Verity Sandahl for taking a chance on AI and getting your book out there so we could listen to “A LAST HOPE”

Love the storyline, and the virtual voice was probably the best I’ve ever heard; only 2 mispronounced words, and otherwise unnoticeable as such. Definitely recommend!

Wonderful!
