Very interesting and sexy take on Beauty and the Beast. A young woman married to a monster finds herself hog tied in a trunk and knows she's about to be murdered at the request of her own hubby. Fate steps in the way and, by chance, she comes across the path of rescuer Silas, a kind and gentle "Beast," who takes it upon himself to care for the young woman and protect her. It was a sweet story where two unlikely people with a common tragic history find love and second chances within each other. Definitely recommended for a quick read or for anyone who loves to read variations on fairy tales (like me!).So what was wrong with it? TOO SHORT! By far. The story could have been far meatier and the ending more developed. I didn't quite understand how the cruel hubby was a mobster type when he ran a logging company. Strange connection there. But overall, very good and priced right!
