About this listen
A Beauty and the Beast Fantasy Romance Retelling
Four handsome fae princes.
One awkward bookworm.
An Enchanted Vale.
A beastly curse to break.
Rosalina O’Connell lives her life in Orca Cove as quietly as she can.
When her father turns up missing, Rosie goes after him and finds herself in the Enchanted Vale, the land of the fae. Where her father has been imprisoned and Rosie has no choice but to make a deal with four fae Princes to take his place.
As Rosie begins to learn more about the four Princes, she discovers that they have been cursed. The Princes must take on the form of demonic wolves every night and with every year that passes, more of their magic fades away.
If the Princes can each find their mate, they will break their curse and free their realm. Rosie is determined to help them…
The only problem is, the more time she spends with the Princes, the more she’s convinced that she’s the one they’re all meant to be with.
A spicy Beauty and the Beast retelling filled with enchanted fae, morally grey characters, a stupidly hot villain and a princess who has found her Prince Charming. All four of them.

Critic reviews
'My newest fantasy escape! Bonded By Thorns is a sweeping introduction to an enchanted fae world brimming with magic, mystery, and romance. Elizabeth Helen expertly combine fractured fairytales and beloved romantasy tropes to craft a compelling story with great characters'
Emily Rath, USA Today bestselling author of North is the Night
'Fun, scorching hot, and absolutely ADDICTIVE. I am obsessed with this series'
Elizabeth May, #1 Sunday Times Bestselling author of The Falconer series
'Enchanted fae, a sexy villain, and morally grey men all wrapped up in the why-choose fantasy romance of your dreams. Beasts of Briar is the perfect series for romantasy lovers everywhere. I’m hungry for more!'
Clio Evans, author of Cosmic Kiss
‘Bonded by Thorns is a fairytale for grown-ups sinking its thorns into your heart and refusing to let go. It’s a wild, beautiful ride with steam that drips off the pages. Elizabeth Helen weaves a story where the “why choose” romance is a complex braid of roses, that'll have you thirsty for every last drop of love, even as the thorn pricks make you bleed. Prepare to be hooked until the very last word — and then left fiending for the next instalment’
Lexi Esme, author of Threads of Fate
'Elizabeth Helen's Bonded By Thorns takes Beauty and the Beast and turns it on its heels. This innovative blend of beloved romantasy tropes paired with a steamy romance featuring not one, but four princes, is now my favorite way to experience the fairy tale classic'
Frankie Diane Mallis, author of Daughter of the Drowned Empire

Gently Enjoyable
It was a nice easy listen and was a different take on B&tB for sure but not crazy unique. It was fun and I'm intrigued about the story but I'm not desperate to read on immediately. I do plan on getting back to it eventually of course.

beauty & the beast retelling
This beauty and the beasts retelling.g was really good, mysterious and spicy. The fae realm is enchanting and terrifying in equal measure. Rose gets 4 (maybe 5) beasts, each with a completely different magic and personalities. They kept to the original story andade minor twicks plus a ton of good spice.
I really detested Rosalina's personality, the first 10 chapter's she is an pathetic mess, a total pushover. She is better in the castle but not by much. Also, i don't feel the series needed to be 4 books long, a duology i could totally commit to, but am not so sure about commiting to an entire series.

Unfortunately the characters don’t speak to each other
There are great voices for all main characters, but they don’t interact. Each of them only read their own chapter. Since they are all there, each of them should read their own line when talking to each other. It would make things so much more spicy
