A Ruin of Roses

3.58 AVERAGE


Beauty and the Beast reimagined with a dragon shifter prince, a heroine that isn’t actually a damsel and has a hell of a lot of real personality and emotions. Oh yeah, and smut, all the spice you can expect from the first book of a series. Interested to see where she’s taking the plot and enjoying the tension between the characters in the meantime.

Beach read for spicy romantasy lovers who won’t clutch their pearls at foul language. Go in with that mentality and you won’t be disappointed.

A resounding “Meh”…but I’ll preorder book 2

It wasn’t particularly well written, the world building wasn’t earth shattering…but I still want to know what happens. Hoping book 2 is better!

This was a great read! There were so many times I found myself laughing out loud! The characters are unique, complex and I've had a great time getting to know them and they are also absolutely hilarious! It's a twist on the beauty and the beast retelling which I like reading retelling it's always interesting to see how the authors add their own twists! There's four books in this series now and it does seem like an end but I would love to read more from this series! If you haven't read this series yet you are totally missing out!

It was a good book. Characters and wold building are what saved it. It had no plot!

DID NOT FINISH: 10%

Got through chapter 1, the humor was weird. Corny. I didn’t like it.
