I just finished The Beast and I really liked it. I understand that this book had gotten pulled due to some delicate things in the book and after reading it I can totally get it. It is not everyones cup of tea but it was certainly mine. Dmitri is scarred for life, and biding his time to extract revenege on Sergio, his mentor, that did this to him. He hides himself in his mansion with little to no contact with anyone expect the conseirge. Except for one night, Columbia sneaks in with her own ulterior motives. He thinks she is there to kill him. She is really there to talk to his alter ego Mr Jacobs to stop a developemental construction that is happening in the area that she lives in. Sneaking suspisions lead to sort of torture to get the truth. He is a ruthless man that can take her life within seconds. Part of her is releshing in it due to home life and she is just not wanting to live anymore. But put in that sort of perdictament and you will fight for your life. She fights him but this leads to certain discoveries and he cannot let her go. Will she stay with him where she has truly found freedom or will she go home where she has none? You will have to read and see....I really did enjoy this story. I felt like it was a modern take on Beauty and the Beast with a little Christian Grey in the mix, if you know what I mean?!!! I thought that the story flowed really well, not saying there werent certain things that I didnt care for but it made sense in the long run and I can understand those certain interactions and I am ok with it. It was really a compelling story that even though had some predictable moments, was still enjoyable to read.Sigh, Dmitri. AKA the Beast. I loved him. He was my type of guy. He was sexy and alluring and yes even though had some controlling issues, he still was able to put that asside for Columbia once he understood what was going on. I felt bad for Columbia, she has been dealt with a bad blow and I just wanted the best for her even though she didnt know it at first but DAMN, once she does, she falls just as quickly as he does. The best part....OH YEAH. You know what I am going to say. Dmitri has such a sexy potty mouth, I was on board! I so wanted to be her!!!!Seriously, I can see where people might be hesitant to get this and it may not be for some readers but I loved it and you will not know until you get it. Give it a try. It just might be your cup of tea!!!Story 4.5Smut 5+++Overall 5Reviewed by Beggin from Mommys a Book Whore
