Beauty and the beast retellings are always interesting to see what an author will take from the Disney movie and what they will take from the original tale and how they present the Beast.

This book was just perfect for what needed during the month. It is just short enough that I was able to sit down and read without looking at the book and thinking that I don't have time, and also just an enjoyable read that I needed during a very busy and stressful time. You can't go wrong with a short spicy novella read.
I wouldn't say the spice is overly spicy, there is a thing or two that might turn people off but the scenes themselves were only mild spicy to maybe medium spicy for me. In saying that with this being a shorter read the spice does take up a bit of the page count. Something to keep in mind if you don't want something that have a high page count for spice in comparison with the rest of the book.

This is exactly what it says it is. Mind all of the content warnings found on the author's website. (I've copied them below in a spoiler tag) It was alright and I got exactly what was described. It didn't blow me away but I sure did read it. I wasn't in love with the characters by the end or anything but they served their purpose. The brief plot is basically the Disney movie but modified for especially raunchy monster smut.

The one thing I will note is that I liked that Belle was described as having a "soft, rounded belly" because that's not used as a positive descriptor for women very often.

Beauty & the beast is one of my top disney film and i’m known for being very protective of it but all things holy i loved this book!! But i love how this novel demonstrated how Belle loved the beast before he was human 💛

It felt like it was written just for me 😂 didn’t miss a single one of my kinks … and you know what i was always a lil disappointed when beast turned into a human again cause he was so much cuter as a beast …
