Review:

Nichelle Gregory did a fantastic job of bringing the fairy tale of Rapunzel to life. Granted, it was a hot, erotic, R-rated version, but that’s what made this so fun!

The witch in her story was truly vile and easy to dislike. Rapunzel’s hero Filipe is tall, dark and handsome, but he doesn’t act like a “prince charming.”

Nichelle Gregory’s vivid descriptions have the reader glued to the pages. This is a short story that can be read in a night, which is good since you won’t want to stop.

As with any fairy tale, it just wouldn’t feel right without a happily-ever-after, which we get with this story. Rapunzel’s story reminds us that, through love all things are possible.
