Stolen Heir has a beauty and the beast vibes but darker and more ruthless set in modern time. 

 

I love seeing some of the artwork insides that portrayed some of the scenes here, it’s very beautiful! 

The pacing is a little bit slow at first to give room for the main characters to develop feelings towards one another. 

 

I do enjoy seeing Nessa’ character grow from the spoiled and innocent little girl to a more daring and confident kind of girl after meeting Miko. 

I like Nessa’s love for dancing, my favorite part is when Nessa and Miko dances together for the first time. 

 

Overall, it’s pretty enjoyable to read if you can suspend disbelief while reading this and just go with the plot. 

I would also highly  suggest checking out the trigger warnings listed below because some parts may be sensitive to some readers. 

Nevertheless, I’m excited to continue this series and read Nero’s story next! 

 

I received an advanced review copy for free through Netgalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. Huge thank you to the author and publisher!

i’ve only read two of the books in the brutal birthright series thus far, but i wish there was more to the individual stories themselves. although this was a fast read, some parts felt slow and there was definitely room for more character building/emotion discovery. i really liked this one, but it’s getting 4/5 stars because it’s lacking (?) a little.

I love Miko's character, I love Nessa's, the two of them together is so AH! I love how they are perfect foils for each other.

Wishing there was little more plot, but I still really enjoyed!

I am a bit disappointed by the one.
This is just a retelling of The Beauty and The Beast.
I am not a big fan of a fragile virgin FMC.
