🔥 A dark sapphic Little Mermaid retelling full of obsession, power, and dangerous bargains.
Welcome to Twisted Ever Afters—dark sapphic fairytale retellings where villains get the girl and love is anything but safe.
Each book is a standalone filled with obsession, magic, and dangerously irresistible women.
3 stars. I much preferred the Beauty and the Beast retelling by this author than this Little Mermaid one. This one was a lot more relying on sex and I just didn’t feel any genuine connection between Ayla and Eryn. Their characters weren’t that fleshed out and I wasn’t as invested unfortunately. Overall, wasn’t terrible or anything and it was a quick read but I was left wanting more development and depth.
