Love, love, love this book! It was so captivating and wonderfully written.The main character, Calia Thorn, has lived a hard life.

All she does, day in and day out, is clean up after her horrid mother and sisters. But all that changes when the Cold King, the King that ensures her towns safety, comes to announce he was looking for a new personal assistant. Calia is curious about the Cold King, but never in her wildest dreams did she think that the people in her town would pick her to work for the king. Even her own mother votes for her to go, saying that she has no future and nobody would want to marry her. The Cold King has lived hundreds of years cursed, by his own father no less. Seeing no hope or happiness in the future for his life, he has keep himself aloof, remote, and most importantly, cold. But then Calia appears into his life as his new servant, testing him in ways he never was before. Can the Cold King learn to love? Will Calia finally find somewhere where she is wanted, cherished,and loved? Can Calia and The Cold King find their happily ever after together?What I loved about this story was it was not like any other books you ever read. It was captivating, entertaining, and brilliant. I read this book in about 6 hours. You know that a book is good when you can't stop reading it. It was definitely a page turner! Also, how cool is it that this book is a retelling for the classic fairytale of Beauty and the Beast? I absolutely love Beauty and the Beast!! I had high expectations for this book, and I wasn't let down. The characters were beautifully written and I love the Cold King and Calia's character's. I will admit that I cried a lot throughout this book. The raw emotions portrayed in this book were powerful! I love when a book can make me feel all kinds of emotions. I adore this book, and will definitely reread this book in the future! I recommend this book to everyone! Love this book!
