the tough choices are what makes lifeYears ago, I was the scape goat for a very powerful man and his six sons. I managed to escape and build a quiet life for myself. When the opportunity arose to help others in similar situations, I took it. Now, I’m known in the streets for my talented hand in forgery among other things. Almost anybody a person wishes to become, I can make it happen, well, with … make it happen, well, with the help of my two best friends.
Arsuilla. Survivor. Savior. I answer to them all. Oh, and voice stealer. I swear, throat punch a guy one time and it’ll stick with you for a lifetime.
Life is looking up until the six sons find me. At first I fear they’ve been sent by their father to drag me kicking and screaming back to him. But I soon come to realize, I’ve got more to fear from Anderson, Alejandro, Abraham, Atlas, Alek, and Aric. Like losing my heart to the six brothers.
This is a Villainously Romantic WhyChoose Retelling with some chuckles, several fearless stunts, and enough determination to rival the sea.

I really enjoyed this book, it was sweet, sexy and full of danger. I loved the characters and wish there were more to read, but it has a perfect balance to it. Definitely going to read more in this series, I love reading the villains get love.
Great retelling of one of my fave villains, Ursula! Right from the beginning I was hooked. Arsuilla, AKA Su, is our BA female of the story. She escaped a life that was hurting her and has stayed hidden for quite a while. She has found real “friends” and has found a purpose helping people escape toxic pasts just like hers.
“Unfortunately, going back is more than just handing myself over to them again. It’s sacrificing my freedom to Trenton. I will not be the victim nor the villain of my story any longer. I choose my fate.”
Things are going great and then all of a sudden the 6 brothers (all are related by adoption only) found her. She attempts to run and at first and about makes it. This is where things get a little wishy washy for me. Su is this BA female character but basically gives up and goes with the brothers to face her father, Trenton, with whom she ran away from in the first place.
“No matter the hands they’re dealt, the cards don’t always have to be played the same way.”
Ok, I am invested in this story at this point and continue because I just have to figure out what is going on and why Su even ran in the first place. Like I said, I was hooked!
This is a reverse harem and you know from the story that she loves the brothers but after she throws a crazy temper tantrum for three days she ends up in bed with them. When it came to the brothers it was a little confusing following them as all their names started with an A. Their relationships felt a little rushed for me since there weren’t any answers or explanation on why they brought her back in the first place. With that being said, the story is a great story, and the ending answers our questions and ties it up very nicely. I hate to say this but I wish there was a bit more plot and a little less sexy time so the characters could develop a little more. Like I said, I really liked the spin on Ursula and am looking forward to reading others in this group!
I usually am not a fan of retelling of stories I love in the original version but this one is really good. The A’s are confusing but it’s easy once you get who’s who. I love how it starts with a girl on the run. Staying one step ahead of her past. However what if the past catches up to you. I loved how this story flowed. Fast pace but not too fast, easy read. Brilliant job Brandy.
Oh my gosh I completely adored this book so much!! First I am a die hard Disney Villain fanatic, and Ursula is a top 5 for me!! So I gobbled up this retelling of her story. I loved the Sea Witch and Her Mermen and don’t forget Kraken!!! Amazing story definitely a must read but it now people!!l
