Beauty's Kingdom by A.N. Roquelaure
5.0
First of all, I am a fan of Anne Rice, but have never read any of the Beauty books before. Then I got an ARC of this one and thought, "Well, why not?"
My previous experience with the BDSM erotic genre had consisted entirely of the first half of 50 Shades of Grey, so I'm sure you can understand why I was reluctant to read more, but had I only started with this, my impressions of the genre would not have been so tarnished.
This is very much the Anne Rice I have always loved, rich description and dialogue, every word chosen carefully. I fell in love with this book from the first page, with her imaginative details and wording. I couldn't put the book down. I was thoroughly enthralled with it.
I will definitely be reading the first three books.
