About this listen

How far would you go for happily ever after?

From the number one Sunday Times best-selling author of the Caraval series, the first book in a new series about love, curses and the lengths that people will go to for happily ever after.

For as long as she can remember, Evangeline Fox has believed in happily-ever-after. Until she learns that the love of her life is about to marry another and her dreams are shattered.

Desperate to stop the wedding and heal her wounded heart, Evangeline strikes a deal with the charismatic, but wicked, Prince of Hearts. In exchange for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of his choosing.

But after Evangeline's first promised kiss, she learns that bargaining with an immortal is a dangerous game - and that the Prince of Hearts wants far more from her than she pledged. He has plans for Evangeline, plans that will either end in the greatest happily ever after, or the most exquisite tragedy....

It was annoying

female character was not likeable. super dense and annoying. I would love it if they gave the female character a bit of sense. I did not like how super naive and annoying she was

Had to get book 2 ...

although at times, the female lead at times, came across a bit annoying to me.( not sure if that was in the narration rather than story) I can't help recognise a good story. when you finish and go directly for the next book because ... how dare you end it there! and then you listen to the next book in a weekend.
I manage to love and dislike these characters in equal measure. it propels me on to see if they will be the villan or the hero.

Lots of twists and turns~

The writer clearly new what they were doing. It's well thought out and planned. The characters jumps off the page. I finished this in one sitting and am now jumping to book 2.
Highly recommend!

Slow start, but sooo good

In the beginning I wasn’t sure about this book because it had a slow start and it took me a while to get into the setting. But it only got better and better
