Every royal has their dirty little secret. His was… me.
It should have been simple.
Go to the ball, meet the prince, and secure his patronage for my favorite charity.
But beneath the mask, the brooding beast of a man was not at all who I expected.
He was dark and intense and eerily quiet.
When I left, I could still feel the ghost of his touch branded into my skin.
He haunted my dreams, but I never expected to see him again.
Then he came for me.
And he took me.
And I learned that his darkness was a void I never could have conceived.
He’s the crown prince of Norway.
And, now, I’m his captive.

Dark and delicious is Ashleigh's version of this fairytale, which gives a fair chance to the Prince Charming's POV. There's the brooding and broken alpha, who needs power and control. The dominant in him sees the submissive in his custom fit Cinderella and from thereon, ashleigh lets her imagination fly!
Ella is the proverbial Daddy's Girl, a pampered and loved child. Unfortunately now she's stuck with her stepmother, aptly named Narcissa. She's at mercy of taunts and jibes of her stepsisters- Lavinia & Magnolia.
This triangulation of cruelty fires at her from all sides, till she seeks refuge in the Animal Rescue farm with her best friend.
One meeting and a fleeting touch in the masked ball and Prince Thoren of Norway is smitten, or shall we say he wants HER smitten and knelt.🙇♀️
This is a major turning point and Ashleigh writes in her own indomitable dark style.
There's the perfect bdsm power exchange, carnality is unfurled and proudly displayed, highly charged sexual scenes form the backdrop of this fairy tale only suitable for adults!😜
Hanging over their heads is dark clouds of past abuse, mental health illnesses and betrayals which makes them kindred spirits. His lack of feelings and hers overflowing with patience & compassion are a match made in heaven
Their yin-yang personalities fit perfectly well and in that sense, it's a PERFECT FAIRYTALE.
I loved the twisted end where Ashleigh brings the chickens home to roost and HOW!!!
The writing starts with a normal retelling and then goes underground into the dark tunnel, so it was a delightful journey for me and for other dark-ish lovers.
Ashleigh is an accomplished writer and in her mighty pen lies the power to make you love everything she chooses to write. Timeless saga takes you behind the dark curtains, it titillates and touches your heart, bringing you to Her own kind of HEA.
