Never Ever After

by Sue Lynn Tan

Review

Never Ever After was a breathtaking tale that felt both intimate and grand, weaving Cinderella-like inspiration into a world brimming with dragons, ancient magic, and deep emotion. The story follows a young woman raised with love by her uncle, only to face cruelty and hardship under her step-aunt’s rule. Everything changes when a magical creature delivers a long-lost gift from her mother—one that sets her on a journey through enchanted realms and dangerous truths. Her quest to uncover her heritage becomes one of courage, identity, and hope, as she learns that sometimes the magic we’re seeking is the strength we’ve had all along.

Sue Lynn Tan’s writing is absolutely stunning—lush, lyrical, and full of heart. There’s a rhythm to her words that feels almost musical, drawing you into a world where the air hums with enchantment and every scene feels alive. I adored how she balanced the mysticism of dragon lore and magical systems with the raw, emotional depth of her heroine’s journey. The audiobook brought all of that beauty to life even more vividly, making it feel like stepping into a living fairytale. If you love immersive worlds, heartfelt storytelling, and a touch of romance wrapped in magic, Never Ever After is pure perfection.
