Publisher's summary

Reborn to Be Bad

Claudia, daughter of a duke, is tricked by her wicked half-sister and sold off to a brothel. Unwilling to accept defeat, Claudia uses the tools at her disposal and becomes one of the most successful sex workers in her new home. That's when she dies--only to be thrust back in time to age fourteen! Gone is the gullible girl of her academy days now that she's got street savvy and hard-won seductive skills. It's Claudia's turn to play the evil villainess, and there's nothing she won't do to protect what's hers!

love that it wasnt so predictable from her past life there were unpredictable aspects of the new time line

like that there was more then one person with a brain. the villain actually got called out on things that make no sense instead of the other characters just accepting it all with out question. currently binging the 2nd novel

Actually Well Done

Let's face it, the whole "villainess" thing is a popular fad and nothing new, and to be sure, the summary of this story probably sounds familiar if you are a fan of light novels or anime. All the same, I am a sucker for these types of stories and this one turned out to be a surprisingly well executed example of this subgenre. The characters and story are engaging and I found some parts quite moving. I hope this book and its author gain popularity so the author continues to release more books like it. Audible suggests that there are more books in the series yet to come, which is great, but honestly this one could stand alone so don't feel the need to hold off. There are no big cliffhangers at the end so feel free to enjoy this one now.

Full version now available!

I love this story (such an interesting heroine, and I love the relationship between her and the prince), so I was super sad when I realized it was missing a very important section of the book. That is now fixed! The full version is the 9 hr and 50 min one (the problem one was just over 9 hrs).

If you already have it downloaded, just remove it and then redownload for the full one : )

The true love story is between the girls

This is a cut and dry Isekai Do-Over. Light and fluffy, just wins. The twist of the villainess’s previous profession is interesting. Villainess would choose the friend she made in the trenches over the Prince every time if she had to and that is beautiful.

Loved it!

I like that while her past life went down an unfortunate path, Claudia learned so so much from it and it made her a smarter person in her next life. Looking forward to book 2 as I think it explores her sex work days more.
