Your favorite fairytales, reimagined. What if Captain Hook was Snow White's Savior? And Belle was the Beast she feared. Maybe Red Riding Hood isn't so sweet. What if the villain got the girl?

Romance like you've never imagined, spice that’ll set you ablaze, and adventure that'll keep you on the edge of your seat. Everyone deserves a happily ever after—even if it's twisted.

Beautiful Beast by Olivia Peters is a contemporary romance fairytale retelling inspired by Beauty and The Beast.

Adam

I rejected my legacy to fight wars in foreign countries, risking my life for the rush.

Taking my place as the Prince of Wall Street is the last thing on my mind when I return from Syria broken. But I didn’t bargain on a beautiful new neighbor who thinks she can heal me.

She’s wrong. There’s a reason they call me the beast.

Belle

I grew up on the free lunch program in New York City’s worst neighborhood.

Now I’m living in a penthouse with a reclusive billionaire neighbor. I should run from the danger surrounding him, but all I want to do is get closer.

He isn’t the only one with a dark past. And I’m ready to take on the beast.




I absolutely love this retelling of Beauty and the Beast by Olivia Peters. This is not the story that us readers grew up on aka "Disney" version. Nope, this version is Showtime rated. I have read many books by Olivia, and they all bring the "steam", but I have to say this is by far the "steamiest" story of them all. 

Adam was rough around the edges, but he was no match for Belle. She definitely won Adam over and that is when things really heated up. Not to say that the sexual tension before than was anything but HOT. If this is your first introduction to Olivia Peters, you are in for a great treat, and I can guarantee you will become a fan.

Don't Say a Word: A Daughter's Two Cents

  Edna and Leo, a perpetually warring, tyrannical pair in their 80s, begin wintering In Mexico, where they abandon their usual prudence to embrace adventure and a bevy of sketchy new friends. Soon, Edna adopts a pair of shyster builders whom she trusts over her own architect-daughter Elizabeth, and a farcical house results. Blithely indifferent to the calamities that result, the pair refuse all help from their too-compliant only child. Later, following her mother’s sudden death, Elizabeth’s wise, principled father attempts to fill his late wife’s shoes with a string of loopy, live-in housekeepers―with privileges, he hopes. Before it is over the Mexican escapade will bring down the kind of disasters commonly found in pulp fiction. Why can’t Elizabeth stop any of this from happening?
