The Savage and the Swan

By: Ella Fields

Narrated by: Kristen DiMercurio, Ralph Lister

USA Today best-selling author, Ella Fields, delivers a heart-wrenching tale of impossible yet unstoppable love in this all-new standalone enemies to lovers fantasy romance.

The king of wolves was more beast than man, more tyrant than king, and so much more than he seemed.

Raised to avenge his murdered parents, he’d been trained and conditioned until nothing but violence and hatred lined the walls of his dead heart.

For nearly four years, I’d done all I could to help my kingdom as we faced the wolf king’s unconquerable evil — hardly anything at all.

As the only heir to the Gracewood line, I’d been relegated to menial tasks that would keep me and my secrets safe.

A chance to do more than fret behind our castle walls arrived when I breached them after overhearing my parents’ plans for my future. Fleeing, I unknowingly raced into a fate we’d all desperately hoped to avoid.

By the time I saw him coming, it was far too late. For my family. For my kingdom.

For my heart.

Before I could staunch the bleeding, the king had me under his giant paw, and one wrong move after another caused those razor-sharp claws to sink deeper and deeper beneath my bruised skin.

I might have been trapped, naïve, and furious, but I still had a kingdom to save — and a plan.

Yet when we collided, the bloodshed, the fear, his atrocities...all of it dissolved like stardust upon the night sea.

The stars had mapped out our destiny, but it didn’t matter what they or my heart wanted.

I refused to see the enigmatic male, the heartless lost boy with a soul beneath the flesh of a monster.

The savage king who’d destroyed everything I loved would fall — even if my heart fell with him.

Inspired by Hades and Persephone, Rumpelstiltskin, and The Swan Princess, The Savage and the Swan is not connected to any other Ella Fields novel. It’s a full-length standalone romantic fantasy containing mature content.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🔥🔥

Highly recommended. definitely worth the credit the narrators did I beyond 5 star , ward winning performance . the male narrato did a outstanding job of bringing just the right tone of menace to the male character and the female narrator did the exact same giving each scene the just the right amount of emotion bringing each scene to life. The writer did a great job Of introducing a new world of fantasy and romance in a romance just the right right amount Of pull between the 2 characters . The beautiful fantasy story of enemies finding love within each other under cruel and unexpectable circumstances

Sooo Good!!!

I listened to this audiobook during a long road trip and was so excited each time we got back in the car. It’s slow at first, but gets spicier and spicier. 🌶🌶 I highly recommend it- the descriptions and writing was beautifully done too.

story a bit slow

story was dragging. the war didn't really make sense for both sides. the male narrator was truly terrible as mentioned by other reviews. definitely returning book.

Love a standalone

This book gave Rumplestiltskin meets The Swan Princess. Our MMC is definitely teetering on morally black, but I absolutely loved it. I thought the plot was pretty standard. Revenge, prophecies, and huge misunderstandings that have major consequences. One thing Im going to eat up in a book is when the MMC gives the FMC something for their special interest. I will inhale that shit is 0.3 seconds.

Male Narrator is Truly Terrible

Possibly the worst male narrator I’ve ever heard. Nearly ruined the book. Highly recommend buying the book instead.

Female narrator is great. Loved the beauty and the beast vibe of this story.

great story but need to retire the male narrator

I very much like the storyline and the characters but I struggled with the male narrator which sounded way too old and his female voice was terrible.

dades voice

the voice of Dade was hard to hear I would pause and read it myself until the voice of opal would return. I dont know why but it was hard to get behind his voice.
overall the audio was really good.

So good!

Loved every minute of this adult fantasy romance!!! You won’t be disappointed! Put this on your TBR list!

dont love it dont hate it

i really hate the male narrators voice he just sounds old and ruined the fantasy of the young wolf king
the are some interesting events but the overall story lack something

Fairytale inspired romantasy

The story is fun and definitely influenced by many fairytales. The female narrator is great but the male narrator did not seem right for the mmc. Solid 3 star read.
