Summary

This is a tale about beauty and power … and unexpected love. When Rose flees her monstrous husband, she finds refuge in an abandoned castle. Little does she know, another monster hides behind its walls-a hideous beast, who carries a terrible secret. As Rose tries to uncover the truth about the beast, she is drawn closer to him. There, hidden from the world, she finds something unexpected: an opening of her heart, and a strange and dangerous love … Beauty and the Beast is a dark, romantic retelling of the fairy tale classic, intended for mature readers.
