Forbidden Fairytales

I can't live my life in a cage anymore. Please... take me with you. My whole life is squeezed inside these walls. I can't remember the last time I left this building. My guardian, Ethan, tells me it's to keep me safe. During his visits, he tells me the world is dark and full of evil. The evil that killed my parents, stole my family from me, and left me in Ethan's care. He wants me to stay here. Forever. When a group of men break into my prison, I make a reckless decision. Information in exchange for freedom. Danger in exchange for safety. They're everything Ethan ever warned me about. Maverick, the puppet master with cool eyes and a colder smile. Ryder, the thief with light fingers and a dark heart. And Enzo, who'd rather carve himself into my skin than let me leave. I have to make a decision. The man who raised me... or the men who stole me? This is a why-choose, dark contemporary retelling of Rapunzel with three morally gray men and a heroine who'll do anything for freedom. For mature listeners.

Hope is a delicate thing. Like glass. So delicate that once it shatters, it will never be the same again. Vilified. Despised. Ruined. Anastasia Cooper is the most hated woman in Sorelle. To avoid the modern slavery charges leveled against her by her scheming stepsister, she opts for a quiet life under house arrest to escape the frenzy of the media. But she wasn't banking on them. The Tate brothers. Feared by all, everyone knows that Christopher, Silas, and Rafael Tate are the real power behind the throne of Sorelle. And they've been looking for Stasi for a very long time. Determined to make Stasi's life as difficult as possible, Kit, Silas, and Rafe take every opportunity to remind her how far she's fallen. But Stasi has her own plans, and she's not about to let the men who stole her heart once before and smashed it into pieces ruin the only thing she has left. Hope. But as truths come to light, the Tate brothers begin to realize that they might not have the full story. And they won't let Stasi slip through their fingers again. Glass is a why choose, modern day retelling of Cinderella with three morally grey men and an evil stepsister who knows how to twist the truth.

Red tilts her head, a question in her eyes. "He's quite mad, you know." I don't bother to hide the smirk that stretches my lips, showing her my teeth. "All the best people are." I wasn't expecting to find a man whilst drowning my sorrows and hiding from my responsibilities in the filthiest bar in the city. Hatter is elusive, beautiful… and sad. Tempting enough to make me throw my usual caution aside and steal him. Just for a night. One night, to help us both forget. I expected him to leave me. But I didn't expect the invitation he left behind. Wonder. The most exclusive club in the city. Always moving, never discovered, and impossible to enter without permission. So naturally, I stole it. Except Wonder isn't quite what the whispers say. Once you enter, you can't leave without permission. Red runs Wonder with an iron fist, a calculating mind, and possession in her gaze. When I find myself in the middle of Red's games, I'll need to use every skill I have to keep me and the men around me alive. She likes to collect broken things. Maybe I'm the most shattered of them all. But Hatter, Buck, Aiden, Kayden, and Chess won't let me fall. They shine a light on my nightmares, offering a shield against the grief that haunts me even as I rip theirs apart in return. Red thinks she's facing Alyss Lidell. I'm much, much more than that. This is a standalone, contemporary, why-choose retelling of Alice in Wonderland with five morally grey men and an FMC who fights for what she wants.
