Publisher's summary

Greta knows two things to be true. The first: Trolls don't venture into the forest, especially during the day. The second: Kings don't save peddlers' daughters from those trolls, and they certainly don't deposit them atop royal horses and personally escort them home.

But sometimes, they do. And sometimes afterward, life gets very complicated....

The Queen of Gold and Straw is a romantic fairy tale retelling full of humor, first love, new love, promises, lots of straw, and - of course - gold.

Contains mature themes.

Well Written and Clean!

This was a fantastic retelling of this fairy tale. The whole story was very well thought out and the charecters felt very alive and interesting.

Half way through listening I went back to the description and noticed it says it has "mature themes" I don't like reading explicit content which is what I thought that ment. Nothing had happened so far so I kept listening because I was pretty into the story and decided if it got too dirty for me I would skip that part. I listened to the whole thing.

This book is very clean. There are no explicit love scenes. even the kisses seam sweet and mild to me. There are a few subtle verbal implications about it between charecters but that's it.

This book was very sweet and wholesome in my opinion and I was really happy with how well it was written. I enjoyed this book immensely.

Good

I really like this book I listed to it in two days. The storyline kept me interested. But it ends to quickly, it was going nice then it just ends.

The unexpected tale of gold

I loved the endearing story and the beautifully executed twists in this fairy tale. It does not disappoint. The dual voice acting adds even more to the enjoyment.
