This is not the bedtime story you remember.

Primal Beasts is a feral, blood-soaked, and sinfully hot retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Only here, Goldilocks doesn’t stumble into a cozy cabin. She’s dragged into a den of monsters with blood on their hands and hunger in their eyes. And instead of porridge, what’s too hot, too cold, or just right…is her.

Mila Crawford delivers a brutal, beautiful descent into madness, memory, and desire. The narration? Unhinged perfection. Lucy Rivers gives us a heroine who breaks, bends, and still burns bright. And the beastly trio—voiced by Grayson Owens, Corvin King, and James Cassidy—snarl, seduce, and destroy in equal measure.

If you like your fairy tales dark, your monsters conflicted, and your heroines sharp-tongued and scarred, Primal Beasts is just right.
