Publisher's summary

My Savior...Or My Ruin?

One night, and my entire life went up in flames. All because of him. Jafar. As my world burned down around me, he offered me a choice. Walk away with nothing but my freedom...or rise to his challenge and win my fortune back.

I bargained.

I lost.

Now Jafar owns me, and even as my mind rails against his rules, my body loves the punishments he deals out when I break them.

But a gilded cage is still a prison, I’ll do anything to obtain my freedom.

Even betray the man I’m falling for.

Desperate For More

This was a lot better than I expected. I loved the consent in this story. The narration was excellent, both readers did a fantastic job. Highly recommended for fans of consent nonconsent daddy kink fiction.

Disney Villains, Adult Stories & Modern Ethics

Wonderfully surprising erotica with a BDSM portrayed an an ethical way. It is truly hard to write BDSM works that play with some of the dark fantasy that turn the human spicy on and still emphasize a need for consent and modern ethics. this book blends these ideas in interesting ways.

For eroica this is top tier, but in the larger scene of books the charters could use more depth,

I also highly recommend this book for books clubs, there are many topics that can be sun off into interesting conversations.

5/10 it's alright

Someone in the reviews mentioned the voice actors and they definitely did not over exaggerate. It's bad. The story itself is about what I expected although I would have loved more of a resolution or even an afterword.

Eh. It was alright

Katee Robert’s writing and storytelling has significantly improved since this book, thank goodness. It didn’t even read like it was from the same author.
I felt like I had missed a huge chunk of background with the way the book started and the plot was weak and scattered. I also could NOT stand the male narrator’s voice. This one took a lot of effort to get through.

It was okay

The voice actors definitely turned me off from this book, it was hard to concentrate on what they were saying. The story wasn’t entirely a story, just a lot of sex. I’m still going to read the rest of this series and see if it gets better!

Enjoyed this more than expected

I got this because I wanted a quick, spicy listen. I knew it was Jasmine/Jafar but was not expecting the other characters to be d*sney-centric. It seemed silly at first but after a while I got more into it and I DO want to try the rest of the series.

H O T

Contemporary retelling of Jasmine and Jafar's relationship... if you ever wonder where the scene in the Disney movie could have gone with slave girl Jasmine, well... here is an answer. detailed, sexy and very- very - graphic sex scenes and language, this book hit all the right notes. I especially appreciated how the author emphasized consent and healthy D/s relationships, and how being sub doesnt mean someone has to be submissive in every facet of their life. A few uneven notes, but nothing that stuck with me. Introduction of a few more characters I am keen to read more about.
