Fairest

Sapphic Fairy Tales, Book 3

By: Cara Malone

Narrated by: Emily Beresford

Everyone says Luma has the world at her fingertips. Her trust fund can buy anything she wants, there's a modeling agency courting her, and most people would kill for her life - especially her stepmother, Tabitha.

When Tabitha comes home mangled from a botched cosmetic procedure and finds out Luma's been offered a prestigious gig, jealousy rears its aging, puffy head. Tabitha wants Luma dead and she's got no choice but to flee. Alone and cut off from her resources, Luma's last refuge is a remote cottage where she prays Tabitha won't find her.

Charlie is the newest addition to her family's lumberjack business in the forest, whittling away her emotions as she works through a broken heart. Beauty really is skin deep because no woman can look past the birthmark on her forehead. Charlie is ready to forget about love...until she finds Luma asleep in her bed. She's in danger, vulnerable, and also the most beautiful woman Charlie has ever seen.

When the lumberjacks take Luma under their protection, she finds more than just safety. She finds Charlie and a new purpose in the forest-until Tabitha comes back to finish her kill.

Contains mature themes.

“Fairest” by Cara Malone

This is a lovely, fun easy to read book with a wonderful happily ever after ending! Charlie and Luma are both sweet as hell and their story is super sweet.

Pretty Good

I liked the story although it wasn’t the most realistic. Luma should for sure be dead about 3 times over, but it’s a work of fiction. The final attempt on her life though, just made me cringe. I had to skip some of it because it made me sick how pathetic Luma was. Then, at the end Charlie was like, “you’ve more than proven you can take care of yourself” and I was like, but has she really? Anyway, the ending was sweet just be prepared to roll your eyes a few times.

Cheesy But Cute

It’s a cheesy Romance but still cute. Well written with a good Snow White storyline.

Loved it

I loved this book
This was such a fun, interesting read. The author has such a way with dialogue and her characters pop to life. If you enjoy the sample I think you'll enjoy the book even more

Lovely

My favorite book from this series! The story is so cute! I loved it very much!

Love this series

I love this series they’re all light but entertaining spins on classic fairytales with enough differences to keep you listening.

Fun and original sapphic Snow-Whitish tale

This is a cute take on a Snow White tale. Aspects are close to the original, but other aspects are different. I didn't know where it would go, but I really enjoyed finding out! I listened to the audiobook so I can't speak to the writing, but I didn't really hear any errors. The narrator is really good and brought lots of excitement to the story. I liked her voice and was able to tell the characters apart. I'll have to read this author's other fairy tale adaptations!

There were maybe a few places where the logic wasn't always there, but it's a fairy tale, so who really cares. The apple and the poison, etc. And why couldn't Luma CALL her dad from somewhere rather than just emailing from the library?

Cute adaptation

The narration is painful, which makes the story hard to listen to. The inflection is awful.

Narrator

The book was really good but the narrator made me want to stop listening it was really hard to finish I'm happy I did but it's definitely not one I'll be listening to again
