About this listen
A returned royal with no interest in becoming an enchanted prince.
A merchant’s daughter who knows better than to pick roses.
A Legacy determined to force them into a story neither wants.
Rosalie’s family has already lost everything, and she’s willing to do whatever it takes to protect them from further harm. Even if that means stopping ignorant newcomers from picking enchanted roses.
Dimitri knows little about his new kingdom, and he can’t help being captivated by the fiery girl who holds the answers. But Rosalie seems horrified by both his presence and his handsome face, and it turns out she has good reason. In the kingdom of Glandore, it’s a dangerous thing to be a young man of royal blood living alone in a castle. Almost as dangerous as being the youngest daughter of a merchant.
Enter a world where tales of the past shape the enchanted landscape—where glass can bend like a slipper and picking a rose courts danger. A world where the inhabitants must overcome the fabled Legacies as they find romance, adventure, and friendship.

Holly is no stranger to the night. Her unique position means that the still hours in the darkest parts of the night are when most of her work gets done. It’s not completely silent—she has Parliament to thank for that—but it does get a bit lonely. Not even the letters from her faithful correspondent can completely fill the empty space, and it’s only a matter of time before she loses even those.

When her grandmother is cast out as unworthy after facing Hamelin’s annual Shunning, Scarlett knows she must brave the dangers of Darkwood Forest if she’s to have any chance of saving her. Her perilous adventure becomes a race against time; she needs to find Gran before the previously shunned get to her first. Scarlett’s efforts come too late. As her magic dwindles the farther into the forest she ventures, she becomes hopelessly lost and is forced to accept help from Greyson, the shapeshifting wolf who is stalking her every footstep—and who Scarlett suspects of knowing Gran’s location.

Another Amazing Book
Another great story. The narration was great. I was a little worried about having two people do it Ester Wane has done other narration for melanie cellier books so I knew she'd be great. But it was a wonder book to add to the library. Good clean. would let my preteen listen to. when is the next one?

Lovable characters
This was a delightful and somewhat unique take on the Beauty and the Beast (BatB) fairy tale. I did wonder how things were going to go down since the “Prince” everyone expected would turn into a beast was already just the sweetest, most thoughtful young man.
The author pulled off an enjoyable story that kept within the framework of the classic BatB story, kept the characters true to their…well, characters…and introduced some novelty to the tale. There were even a couple of tropes turned on their heads. There were some villains, but except for them the townsfolk in and around the main characters’ lives all seem to be lovely, helpful people.
I loved the supporting characters, ESPECIALLY Rosalie’s brothers, who were hilarious. I get the feeling many of the side characters will star in their own fairy tale retellings, and I am here for it!

Enjoyed the twist on an old classic.
It was a fun twist on an old classic. These seem to be overdone but this book seamed to be a fresh twist. I enjoyed the story very much.
