If you, like me, were seriously underwhelmed by the Prince Adam reveal in Disney's BatB, then this might be for you. 

Following the same sort of formula as the original fairytale (ie given/taken by the beast, Belle's dad being the centre of her being forced into the beasts arms, the torchlit hunt for the beast) the common themes are the same HOWEVER the beast isn't cursed and doesn't transform to a blonde weak ass Prince ๐Ÿ˜‚ 

The monster girlies will 100% be here for it, non-monster readers will find it an acquired taste ๐Ÿ˜‚

It's very graphic, if you catch my drift, so if you're not into that I'd give it a swerve. 

My only issue with the book was I felt we didn't get to see enough of them together initially to see the actual romance form so I'm more inclined to stick it in the far end of the erotic romance subgenre. 

Also, they kept referring to each other as husband and wife and I don't actually remember a marriage happening.
