About this listen
Not Quite the Fairy Tale is a series of paranormal romance written for a mature audience. Expect adult language and naughty stuff. Each book is a stand-alone.
Kai, heir of the dilapidated clan who's established residence in the most dangerous mountain on Gaia to avoid persecution, has enough problem on his plate. For starters? Finding enough food. Lack of running water. Keeping the kids alive - and out of the slave trade.
The torrential snow.
But when he sees that innocent, defenseless girl who persists in staying in the cold wastelands all by herself, he can't close his eyes. She becomes his to care for.
Eira has spent the last 700 years asleep. Before that, she'd had a two-century-long nap. While she's occasionally awoken over the course of the last two millenniums, nothing has kept her interested long enough to stop her from going back to her long slumbers.
This time should have been no different; Eira returns to her lands, intending to go back to sleep, but damn Kai doesn't get the meaning of "leave me the hell alone".
She's the last full-fledged goddess residing in Gaia, and that mortal wishes to save her.
Men are stupid.

Story
Ten years ago he was Prince Aiden, heir of Jereena, at the top of the world - now, they call him Beast. Aiden has landed on his feet: His exclusive club is the place to be, and he makes hundreds of thousands a night. What else could he possibly want? Belle grew up during the Anarchy, and the corrupted system screwed her big time, but she managed to get by. Then, her stupid brother goes and steals from the Beast, who demands her as payment. Well, her, a pile of cash, or her sister. Options two and three aren’t acceptable.

I didn't mean to star in a sex tape, okay? It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds. It just happened. Now, my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston's nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan. The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family's oil company. Little does she know, that's not the only pipe I'll be laying....

The first time I met Caine West was in a bar. He noticed me looking his way and mistakenly read my scowling as checking him out. When he attempted to talk to me, I set him straight -- telling him what I thought of his lying, cheating, egomaniacal ass. You see, the gorgeous jerk had wined and dined my best friend-smooth talking her into his bed, all along failing to mention that he was married. He deserved every bit of my tongue-lashing and more for what he'd done.

Story
It was just a typical Monday. Until the big boss asked me to make the pitch for a prospective new client. After two years on shaky ground at work because of my screw up, an opportunity to impress the senior partners was just what I needed. Or so I thought, until I walked into the conference room and collided with the man I was supposed to pitch to. My coffee spilled, my files tumbled to the ground, and I almost lost my balance. And that was the good part of my day. Because the gorgeous man who crouched down and looked at me like he wanted to eat me alive was none other than my ex.

I was upgraded to first class on a flight from London to New York. The food, champagne, and service were impeccable. The blue-eyed man sitting next to me, even better. He was suave and intelligent. We talked and laughed, and something clicked. Fate took over and the plane was grounded, and we had an unexpected stopover for the night. With no plans, we made our own.

hoping this group of books end with loose ends being tied up. there are a couple threads that run through them and I look forward to them coming together

Re-listened. Changed the rating. Extremely creative but not terribly easy to follow. I do not like listening to ED, played her parts at significantly faster speed. The narrators switch back and forth in each chapter and I don't much like that because I have a harder time altering play speed.

So that happened because … ? Muddled mess
This was a head scratcher of a twisted fairy tale. Eida is a Greek goddess of snow who sleeps for centuries because? Kai is an elf prince who finds a girl in the frozen wilds and takes care of her because? Almost immediately, without knowing anything about each other, except that he wants to make babies, they have sex. It’s 30 seconds of clunky sex and then him reflecting that he came seventeen times (weirdly specific), and then him asking her to trust him as he ties her up, then fading to black for some bondage because?
This plays out like a hodgepodge of Greek myths and fairy tales … except there’s a passing reference to cars, so apparently this is urban fantasy. The “plot” is delivered in an info dump halfway in, and is something about gods and dimensions, and Eida being insta-jealous so Kai gets set up with
an insta-butt-orgy-test?! What the what?!
It doesn’t help that the narrators use two very different speeds, requiring constant adjustments between the two … or dealing with half the story told in a too slow, or too quick, fashion. It feels like these novellas were jotted down on toilet paper while the author tripped on acid in some nightclub’s restroom.
