Big Teeth: A Dark Fairytale

by Morgan Elektra

Everyone thinks they know my story.

The one about the innocent lured from her path by a ravenous beast and rescued by a dashing hero...

Everyone is wrong.

What happened that day at my grandmother's house was the beginning, not the end. And the truth is no child's fairytale.

*** This story contains dark imagery of sex and violence that may trigger readers sensitive to those topics. ***

About the author

Born in the artists’ community of Woodstock, NY, Morgan Elektra discovered her passion for writing at a young age, penning stories of witches, vampires, and monsters at the dining room table. After years working day jobs and moonlighting as a reviewer for popular genre website Dread Central, Morgan left the comfort of an office to follow her dreams of writing fiction. She spent the early twenty-teens as a freelance ghostwriter of erotica, but has now put aside the masks to write under her own name. Morgan graduated from Southern New Hampshire University with her MFA in Creative Writing. She writes dark fiction, paranormal romance, and erotica for those who, like her, are in love with the dark.

When not writing she can be found reading, or volunteering with and participating in her local LGBTQ+ community.

She currently lives near Savannah, GA with her husband, their cat Harlequin, and—if the rumours are to be believed (and she sincerely hopes they are)—an awful lot of ghosts.

If you have any questions this almost entirely true bio doesn't answer, Morgan encourages you to ask! She is an open book... cracked spine and all!

On the way to grandma's house, Grace meets Liam. This is definitely a story with Karma. This story may mother for everyone but I thought that Morgan had a good storyline. I would recommend it for over 18 due to some steaminess and violence

I narrated this audiobook and lost myself a bit in these characters. I love a dark fairytale retelling, but fold in a little commentary on toxic relationships or domestic violence and I’m paying attention. Definitely a new Morgan Elektra fan.

"Wolves aren't the only ones with sharp teeth, dear"

I may be a little biased when it comes to this author.

This is a very different take on Little Red Riding Hood. My third Little Red Riding Hood retelling this year and I will just say that go into this knowing it is dark, dark dark! It is fabulous, but damn!

Really enjoyed this, was a fast paced read and felt very real and believable, in the parameters of an erotic fairy tale.

Really capturing scenes both erotic and not. Grace demanded her story told and I enjoyed it.

Not your mother's fairy tale

It was definitely dark. And absolutely not for the faint of heart. A quick read but at times shocking and even a little depressing. I'm not sorry I read it but its not for everyone.

Juicy retelling of Red Riding Hood

Morgan Elektra manages to make Red Riding Hood into a sexy love story in which the Hunter is the villain and the Wolf is her lover. I can't wait to read more of her stories.

First. Can we discuss the cover?
Gorgeous!

This is a very clever reimagining of the classic red riding hood tale.

Dark, evocative and romantic.

I highly recommend if you're a fan of dark seductive tales and retellings of fairy tales.
