About this listen
A young girl with an uncertain future. A deceitful conman with something to hide....
When Scarlett Duke discovers the truth about her birthright, she’s whisked away to live with her grandmother in the dark depths of the woods. Desperately trying to reconnect with her estranged family, Scarlett soon finds herself increasingly drawn to the mysterious wandering merchant who saved her life two years prior.
Adrian Wolfe is a merchant and con man with a dark secret. Cursed by Scarlett’s grandmother for one of his tricks, he’s determined to do whatever it takes to rid himself of the spell. And when he lays eyes on Scarlett, he knows he’s found his chance. But as he tries to seduce her and force her grandmother’s hand, they stumble upon something much bigger - a murderous plot involving the entire Duke family.
As they begin unravelling the truth, Adrian can’t help but start falling prey to the shy, innocent charms of the young woman he sought to betray....

But just when she's getting used to severed heads suspended from the ceiling and the odd squish of an errant eyeball beneath her heel, Evie suspects this dungeon has a huge rat . . . and not just the literal kind.

This was a great re-telling of Red Riding hood. I truly enjoyed it. I did like the narrators voice. I almost feel like a male and female narrators would have made it even better.

I loved it.It is a very interesting version of Red Riding Hood. If you like paranormal romance you will definitely like this. I do think this would be better if there was both male and female narrators, but the narrator does a good job.

Oh My Mister Wolfe!
Well hello mischievous Adrian Wolfe! Scarlett Duke doesn’t know what she’s about to get into. Such an awesome retelling of Little Red Riding Hood. The narration kept me interested and wanting more. Some funny/snarky moments that had me laughing. Mischievousness, secrets, spiciness, flattery and so much more. I’ll definitely be reading more from this author.

Who doesn’t love a good Wolfe?
I couldn’t put this down and listened to this audiobook in one day. This is an interesting new take on little red riding hood. One that involves potions, witches, curses, and a young woman coming of age, discovering love, and herself. For such a short listen, the characters and plot were well developed. The FMC is poised, compassionate, and forthright. She is not the naive whiny maiden, which I greatly appreciated. The MMC is arrogant, morally grey, and delightfully complex. Essentially the type of character I love to read. The witty banter and teasing between the two was a very delightful addition. In terms of spice, it’s there, but it is mild. In my reading, it was appropriate and fit with the fairytale feel of the story. Overall, a solid and very enjoyable read.

A great story
Nothing was as it seemed in Scarlets life. She was deceived by her grandmother that is for sure. Adrian was the best thing that could have happened to her. It was with his help that she found truth. The author did a great job. I also really enjoyed the narration.
