Review & Release Blitz: Imprisoned: A Dark Retelling (Sinister Fairy Tales) by KL Donn

Title: Imprisoned
Series: Sinister Fairy Tales Collection
Author: K.L. Donn
Genre: Dark Fairy Tales Retelling
Release Date: March 3, 2020
Once upon a time…
Isn't that how love stories begin?
Not this time. This is not a love story.
This is the untold story of Sleeping Beauty and how Princess Arianna of Graeline was conceived out of darkness and lies.
Born into a kingdom on the brink of disaster, she remains hidden away from the world as protection against a vengeful curse.
A love curse.
Malevolence has invaded the land of mystery, and the dark mage has decided it’s time to collect on her favor. The price…
The princess.
Until the king calls for a savior. Or two?
Asher “Apollo” McCall and Matthew “Ares” Norbury have worked countless missions together. Named after the Greek gods they resembled, they were considered the biggest and baddest until tragedy struck. Their team was slaughtered and they were left for dead.
Neither man ever foresaw a life of peace, but gazing into the eyes of the young, defiant princess for the first time, they catch a glimpse of what could become their world. 
How far will they go to make the enigmatic royal theirs?
Kidnapping.
Torture.
Can these two "princes" beat the odds, save the princess, and live happily ever after?
Or is Arianna destined to die, imprisoned by a curse out of control?
MY REVIEW
Arianna will rule one day. She'll have a king by her side as she does. But not until the prophesied darkness lifts from the kingdom she is hidden away from.

Asher “Apollo” and Matthew “Ares” are closer than brothers. They once led a team of men until that team was taken from them. They never thought that a princess might bring about lightness to their lives.

I've been really enjoying this Sinister Fairy Tales series. We've had twisted versions of just about every well known fairy tale you can think of, and Arianna's Sleeping Beauty is a pretty twisty retelling. It's sexy, a little dark, and it's a cool version of the classic. There's a note saying that there's going to be a followup story to Imprisoned. I really liked the character it will feature, can't wait to read her story after having loved this one.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
