About this listen
Like many girls, I too used to dream of fairytales.
Until that illusion was shattered, and I saw firsthand just how cruel life could be.
Now I just wished my nightmare would end.
The life I knew ceased to exist as I suffered at the hands of my stepmother, who hated me.
I fought to escape and once I did, I thought life would become normal again, but that couldn't have been further from the truth.
Tragedy was woven in my bloodstream, hiding in my DNA structure. I had a sliver of peace before it all went to hell again.
I stumbled across the men who were sent to assassinate me.
They became my tormentors until someone from my past showed up.
Instead of killing me, we made a new deal.
In exchange for helping me claim my empire back, they wanted me as payment.
I trusted them until I was betrayed.
Snow White got her happily ever after.
But me? I wondered if Id ever get mine.

Triggers: Again listen to the Author's Note for the extra ones NOT listed here. MM, mental and physical abuse, violence and kidnapping.

Story
I wasn’t sure what to expect when arriving in Salem. Forced to marry a man I’ve never met, attend a private university I’d never heard of, and the whispers of a rumored secret society filling the halls. This life would be near unbearable with my insufferable fiancé if it wasn’t for his uncle, his best friend, and his enemy. When none of them are willing to let me go, it sends us down a path I’m not sure any of us will survive. The life I was promised is distorted behind smoke and mirrors. The truth cloaked by Deceit.

Story
The Elite Kings Club left a trail of fear behind every person who whispered their names throughout the centuries that they'd existed. They were the product of every nightmare you were told as a child, only now, they don't go bump in the night. They race modified cars, throw parties to conceal their morbid games, and leave behind the kind of chaos that can never be tamed. They were from an ancient bloodline of the three Founding Fathers, and it was almost time for them to plunge deeper into the depths of hell.

The first time I saw him, I knew I'd never want another man the way I wanted him. The second time, I drank a bottle of his most expensive cognac, which I'd never be able to afford on my own. And the third time… well, he caught me stealing from him. Stealing from the head of the Irish Mafia wasn't smart. But then I never claimed to be. Now I owed him a debt… a big one. And it couldn't be settled with money, or favors.

HER: Me and my money-maker are only going to be young once. I give them three months to use my body however they see fit. Then they’ll pay me more cash than I could see in ten lifetimes. Frankly it’s a lot better than ending up on a stripper pole with a coke habit and a broke boyfriend who keeps trying to pimp me out anyway. I’ll take a one-way ticket outta that country song, thank you very much.

I used to fantasize about meeting a masked madman who would love me endlessly and obsessively. He would look after me in a world where no one else did. He would manipulate all the strings that held up my life until I had exactly the one I wanted. And then one night, I met him. Only he wasn't the hero I always imagined he would be. When we left the forest together that night, I thought I'd escaped the villains relatively unscathed, but my true villain was the man whose arms I felt safest in.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Recently dumped, Randi throws herself into her biggest challenge yet when she’s hired as a maid of honor and pretend best friend for an ice queen bride. There’s just one problem—the best man is infuriating, overprotective, and anti-marriage.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

A Twisted Masterpiece
Poisoned Throne delivers on all fronts. Nikita is a master of dark romance, and I am eager to read more from her.

I think I've just discovered a new fave author...
I took a chance on this one, being unfamiliar with the author and I think she’s a new favorite of mine.
Told in alternating first-person POVs, this drops the reader right into a very dark world, where a young queen has to fight just to survive, let alone maintain anything else—like her wealth and family legacy, etc.
I loved the female lead, for the most part. She is only 17 years old, yet is brilliant and free-thinking and very self-aware. (I did find this plausible for the situations she was raised in / and then found herself in.)
🍎 Fairytale retelling.
🩸 Captivity.
🍎 V!irgin heroine.
🩸 T0rture.
🍎 Fresh starts.
🩸 Bratva.
🍎 Inc3st.
🩸 Assä$$ins.
🍎 Banter.
🩸 Dubcon.
🍎 Group scenes.
🩸 DDLG 🥴.
🩸 Vengeance.
🍎 Secrets.
Overall:
This made me a fan of this author. Please excuse me while I run off to find the rest of their works.
4 stars.
🎧Audio:
The audio is absolutely amazing—what a beautiful voice this narrator has! And she manages to make it sound almost full-cast, with her accents and altered voices for different characters. Amazing. 5 stars. 🦩

Raw, Dark, and Intense!
This is the first book in A Twisted Tale Series, a Snow White's dark, original, and twisted retelling. This is a why choose romance. The characters are enigmatic, and intriguing. The storyline is raw, dark, very intense, and enthralling, filled with passion, violence (a lot of), angst, danger, and twists and turns. Ash Kingsley and Benjamin Sands did a fantastic job bringing these characters, and this story to life. #PFPAudio

Dark Reverse Harem Romance
Poisoned Throne by Nikita is a dark reverse harem romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Ash Kingsley and Benjamin Sands.
This is the first book of Nikita's that I have read it and won't be my last. I was pulled in from the first chapter and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. I loved the relationship that bloomed between Adelaide, Maxcen, Carter, Blaze, Cage, Declan, Silas, and Daemon.
I really enjoyed that we got Adelaide, Maxcen, Carter, Blaze, Cage, Declan, Silas, Daemon, and Ravanna's points of view throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.
I originally read the book when it was first released and was so excited when I saw that it was coming to audio. Ash and Benjamin did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would recommend this book if you're looking for a dark romance, reverse harem romance, forbidden romance, or modern-day fairytale retellings.

Loved the play on Snow White!
This was my first listen/read from this author and they definitely had my attention and I will be looking for any additional audiobooks they bring to us to listen to!
I loved the play on Snow White, the evil stepmonster, the 7 guys and "Snow" with her pale white skin, the poisoned apples, etc. haha. I thought they weren't too overpowering or gimmicky, they were done well and some were subtle it took me a bit to realize it (with the number of guys especially!!). I do think there were some things that kept me from giving it a 5 stars, most with Adelaide and her personality changes (one minute she would be strong and then next breakdown for something random and freak out), some inconsistencies with the storyline (she said she didn't understand how Americans interacted when she was on the run in NYC at the club but she had been living in Cali for years at that point so she would have figured out the UK vs. US differences by then). Those sorts of things that would be cleaned up with proofing, editing, beta reading, etc. The storyline was still good and kept me engaged but some things needed more polishing.
I will say with audio you don't get to hear any trigger warnings or generic high level ones based on where the narrators start so there are a couple things I was not ready for. I was totally fine with them, but I was shocked and had to rewind a couple times to make sure I got it right hahaha. I thought the sexy times were great, except like the first group one was pretty intense and no offense Adelaide was not prepped enough for what she endured (again something that was missed or just not addressed in the different rounds of editing/polishing up before release). Some things felt rushed but the majority of the scenes were paced well, felt genuine for these guys' unhingedness, and helped motivate me while cleaning my house, it never was boring or awkward I can tell you that!
I did a little research when I had 40 minutes left because I wanted to know if there were any spinoffs or interconnected works with this story/universe and was happy to see there were some! Not on audio yet but I will be checking back periodically to see if they do release.
Overall I enjoyed this dark RH/poly romance. I had a couple favorites of the guys but overall I thought Adelaide stuck up for herself well, could protect herself time and time again. I enjoyed how the ending happened and hope we get a check in with them in that spinoff story (or in future ones). I think they would be hilarious to see if any become domesticated/if they have a sorta normal life with running this empire with her. Story gets 4/5 stars from me!
Narration was done well, thought the female narrator did a great job flipping between accents and they were both believable. I also thought the male narrator did a great job with the 7 main characters and distinguished them enough you could figure out some mannerism/tell. Solid performances from them both, I already had one on my approved listen list and will be checking the other out to see if I have more in my library to listen to them more.

Hate and Revenge!
This story has a little bit of everything in it. If you're looking for a sweet Snow White retelling, then this definitely isn't it. It is very dark with lots of trigger warnings. It is full of violence, revenge and all kinds of spicy scenes. It had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. If you like twisted reverse harem fairy tales with a side of taboo, then this is probably for you. Ash Kingsley and Benjamin Sands both did an excellent job bringing this story to life.

Darkest I've listened to
This is the first book I've read/listened to by Nikita. It was the darkest I've listened to, at least in a long while. All the characters had heart breaking, deprived, devastating backgrounds. I was sick over it, and had to pause this a few times. The storyline is tragic although it ends with a HEA. The characters didn't endure to my heart, but I was invested in the outcome. Heed the warnings...childhood sexual abuse, among others.
The narrators are newer to me. They performed with emotion that had it rolling like a movie in my head. Excellent performances!

A very dark and twisted, why-choose, mafia retelling of Snow White
This is a very dark and twisted, why-choose, mafia retelling of Snow White.
Definitely check trigger warnings before going into this book! This book is hot🔥🫠 lots of good spice and you get a lot of angsty, dark and gritty scenes from multiple povs.

Poisoned Throne
Poisoned Throne is a dark RH fairytale retelling. This book is about Adelaide, Maxcen, Carter, Blaze, Cage, Declan, Silas, and Daemon, and is told from all of their points of view, as well as the evil stepmother.
This book starts out with Adelaide's father dying. She is now stuck with her evil stepmother, who wants the empire her father left. Her father tells her that when she's of age the empire will be hers.
Now almost at the age where she will get the empire, Adelaide's stepmother wants her dead and tells Maxcen to rip out her heart to prove she is gone. Maxcen has feelings for her so he helps her escape and delivers a different heart.
When Adelaide's stepmother finds out she is still alive she hires the serpents to take her and Maxcen out. However, the serpents are Maxcen's band of brothers, and they want to know why Adelaide and Maxcen are a target.
Once the serpents get a hold of Adelaide they start to have feelings for her. But her stepmother still has people out for her and Maxcen. Can the serpents keep Adelaide and Maxcen safe? Will Adelaide get her happy ending with all of these guys? I loved the relationship and banter between all of these characters.
This was my first book by this author, and I can not wait to read more!

I am in love with this book. One of the better retellings of Snow White. She was such a bad a$$ and the further you get in the book the more bad a$$ she gets. Also Silas yes please lol.
