Über diesen Titel

One prince. One witch. One fate.

The upheaval in my life began the moment a prince stumbled into my house and asked me to read his fortune. Any other night, I might have made an excuse to get him to leave, but this was no normal visit. My fingers prickled to touch him. So, I granted his request by handing him a single wishbone. When he snapped it, the wish...bled.

Hearing me suck in a shocked breath, he asked what it meant. Such an ominous omen could only mean one thing: His death was imminent. Fate revealed that he wouldn’t die of natural causes. Someone wanted him dead. Stunned by the revelation, the man I now knew as Prince Tauren disappeared into a night I feared he wouldn’t survive.

The following day, I received an invitation to the castle. While it seemed the prince believed I could intervene and uncover who was plotting his death, his motives didn’t stop there. I was being summoned to join 12 other women in vying for the opportunity to be his wife and future queen. Going could mean jeopardizing my plans to reclaim my heritage and resurrect the House of Fate. But staying would guarantee Tauren’s death, and the blood of his wish would be on my hands.

When Wishes Bleed is a young adult fantasy romance perfect for fans of Adrienne Young, Cora Carmack, and Kiera Cass.

I enjoyed this audiobook so much. it's well written and I love the concept of handfasting.
The rivalry between the woman is not too bitchy like in other book and the protagonist is an independent and grounded woman.
The interactions and trust in Fate is also well written and plausible. Sometimes I think his decisions are somehow cruel but they make sense in the long run. It's quite interesting what he wants to indicate.

The concept of Fate is very interesting

The story itself is good, some nice twists, enjoyable characters. But the side story of the TV show just reminds me too much of "the Bachelor" and the division of the empire into sectors copies totally "the Hunger Games" in my opinion.
Plus: I really don't like how the narrator speaks the male voices: they all sound like an 80 years old woman.

Too much "the Bachelor meets the Hunger Games"
