Yes to ebook, no to audiobook. I read it on Kindle last year. The translation was complete, and the formatting was fine. No audio version existed then, and I haven't seen any announcement about one being produced since. If an audiobook gets made, it'll likely be promoted heavily within the webnovel community, so keeping an eye on the publisher's social media might be the best way to find out.
Honestly, I'm a bit surprised this is still ebook-only. Given how massive the 'villainess' and transmigration romance genre has gotten, you'd think more of these titles would get the full audiobook treatment. I consume most of my fiction through my ears these days, so I was pretty disappointed when my usual searches came up empty. The ebook is easy enough to find on sites like Webnovel or through Amazon, but the narration adds a whole different layer of immersion for me. I keep checking Audible every few months just in case. Until then, it's text on a screen for this one.
I went down the rabbit hole looking for formats of 'Hold On Crown Prince' last week, and the short version is it's pretty much an ebook-only title right now. I checked major platforms like Amazon Kindle, Kobo, and even some of the aggregators that specialize in translated webnovels, and the digital text version is definitely out there.
What I couldn't find was an official audiobook on Audible, Google Play, or Storytel. Sometimes with these webnovel adaptations, a fan-made audio version pops up on YouTube with text-to-speech, but I'd hesitate to call that a proper audiobook. The production value just isn't the same.
If you're into reading on a tablet or phone, the ebook is your option. The translation seemed decent from the sample I read, typical for the OI (Otome Isekai) genre. I remember hoping for an audiobook because I love listening during my commute, but I guess the demand isn't high enough yet for a studio to pick it up. Maybe if the manhwa adaptation gets more popular.
Definitely an ebook. I read it on Google Play Books. No official audiobook that I'm aware of, which is a shame because the comedic moments and the prince's dry remarks would be hilarious with the right voice actor. The digital text is the only confirmed format so far.
It's available as an ebook across most major retailers. I grabbed my copy from Apple Books without any issue. The lack of an audiobook is a bit of a bummer for accessibility, though. Some of these stories have really complex names and titles that I stumble over when reading silently, and a good narrator can smooth that right out. I ended up using the text-to-speech function on my e-reader for a few chapters, but it's a poor substitute for a performance with character voices and emotional inflection. The story itself is a fun, trope-y ride—exactly what you'd expect from a crown prince contract marriage plot—so it's a shame more formats aren't available to enjoy it.

Some chains are made of iron, others are forged by fate.
Edrian Lorne has never dreamed of freedom. Born a slave, trained to obey, and scarred by a master’s cruelty, he has learned one truth: hope is dangerous, but when war tears his world apart, he finds himself standing before the Crown Prince of DarkMoonCrest… and the impossible happened when their eyes met, and the mate bond roared to life.
Prince Xander Veyrion has spent his life pursuing one thing, the throne. The bond to a slave is a threat to everything he has built, to every alliance he needs. Yet denying the pull between them proves harder than ruling a kingdom cursed to rot without a noble-born mate.
In the shadows of court intrigue, deadly magic, and whispers of rebellion, the bond between Edrian and Xander burns hotter with each stolen glance and forbidden touch. But when betrayal strikes and a killing curse forces their hands, they must decide, cling to ambition and lose each other, or defy the kingdom and claim a love that could bring an empire to its knees.
A slave with no hope.
A prince with everything to lose.
And a bond that could change the fate of a kingdom.
