hannahmiara 's review for:
Fallen Rose
by Amelia Wilde
This series started so high and so well for me. Beauty and the Beast is my favorite Disney movie and I had really high hopes. I feel like all of my hopes have been met and I love a good anti-hero, bad boy who only melts for the woman he loves. But at times, this book felt like I was going in circles and there were a few loose ends or confusing parts which made me scratch my head.
I couldn't believe the twist with Caroline. Like mouth on the floor, "holy shit" moments. When I was reading the Cinderella Duet, I did not expect her to be as evil as she is.
The wrap up with Cash and Haley's father felt...unfinished? Like you sold her out to Caroline, yet there was no real conversation about her forgiving them and them being sorry and hoping to repair their relationship. I would've liked more of a wrapup with this piece of the story.
The spice was another level. If Miss Wilde does something well, it is going to be the spice because yes ma'am. The progression of their love felt fast, but what else should I suspect with a retelling?
Overall, I really enjoyed this series and learning more about Leo than what we saw in the previous trilogy. I have so much more understanding for his character and loved reading about him falling in love with Haley.
