It was a little slow in the beginning like most books. But it picked up and kept me hooked. I loved every word of it. Heartbroken that his mom passed (but that’s life). Otherwise, I enjoyed this read.

We love a good sex in the church, haha!

Oh my goodness! I freaking loved reading this book! It took me a minute to realize who Molly was since it was a hot minute since I read the Cat and Mouse Duet. Once I knew, IMMEDIATELY hooked. And this book did not disappoint!

I loved that the book constantly had me on my toes and was keeping me VERY interested! There was a pretty good balance with “smut” and plot. Along with all the twists and turns!

It was a pretty decent twisted retelling of the classic Beauty and the Beast.
I absolutely adored the last few chapters. It had me on the edge of my seat and made my heart so happy. The Beast had the obvious character development given the fairy tale.

Overall, I did enjoy reading the book. Just took me a while for some reason.
