Marriage: the ultimate heist.

Robin of the Greenwood spends her days robbing from the rich to feed the poor. With her knowledge of the fae paths, she eludes all attempts to capture her. But, she and her merry band of brothers never seem to get anywhere. The more she steals, the more the evil Duke Guy "Bluebeard" taxes the villagers. When Robin discovers that Duke Guy plans to marry yet again, she conceives a plan for a final, big score. As Guy's wife, she will have access to his wealth. The lord is notorious for killing his wives shortly after he marries them, but Robin has no plans to be dead wife number four. The only problem is that Duke Guy is devastatingly handsome, brooding, and nothing at all what she expected. If she isn't careful, she might just find that he steals her heart before she can rob his riches.

Bluebeard and the Outlaw is one of twelve short novels in A Villain's Ever After, a collection of stand-alone stories featuring villainous twists on some of your favorite classic fairy tales.

This is a humorous lighthearted tale.
Escapism at its finest. I'll probably listen to it more than once.

Liz Brand, your voice is perfect for this story!!!

This is such a romp! Robin narrates her story as though she were Flynn Rider (and yes, it’s just as comical!). Then in her greatest heist of all, she goes and gets herself married to Duke Guy, aka Bluebeard, the dark and brooding lord that has a history for murdering his wives and upping the taxes. But soon Robin finds herself wondering if there is more to the Duke than he lets on, and might he possibly be the one stealing her heart rather than she his riches?
Loved the cameo from Meg and Basil at the end! This was a great way to turn a dark fairytale on its head with some great characters and a little love and a lot of humor.

A humorous twist on a villainous tale!

This was an exciting combination of Robin Hood and Bluebeard! The tale takes place in the greenwood, where the fae are causing trouble, and it takes off from there. I loved how audacious the main character was, and how the love story progressed! I didn’t like the gore, but since it wasn’t a large part of the story, I was able to brush it aside most of the time. The narrator did an amazing job!

Exciting

I love Tara Grayce’s novels! They have action, adventure, vivid story telling and scenery! The characters are relatable and not annoying! The romance develops naturally and not forced! And it’s a clean read, which is so hard to find when romance and fantasy are together! I love her books and this is just another of my favorites! Love love love her narrator she has great inflection and just immerses you in the story!

So good!

Parents: PG13-- very clean great for middle school to young adult and on up
Language: none
Violence: PG13- moderate gore with fight scenes but nothing too graphic
Sexual content: PG- pretty tame, very sweet mostly attraction and the kissing variety

Not a long book, but highly enjoyable! I have always loved Robin Hood stories and this variation was a lot of fun. I loved the spunk of Robin, the fae monsters, and the puzzle of the Duke was fun to sort out. Definitely recommend to those who like the clean fantasy retellings.

**This story tied into Stolen Midsummers Bride so read that one first. There's not a lot to spoil it but all the same then you'll know the characters when the show up in this book.

As always, this narrator (5🌟) is top notch, she has fantastic differentiations for the character voices, and is one of a few narrators that I don't feel the need bump up the playback speed.

Fun Mix of Fae and Robin Hood Story Retelling

Tara, love your writing! It's romantic without being overly sexualized and always a happy ending without being overly twisted or dark. That's why I've heard all of your available material. Looking forward to your next books coming out soon. I love how you tied this book in with one of your other books at the end. Please keep writing series!

Glad I listened, never liked Robinhood before...
