Blurb
A raging beast seeks revenge upon his formidable beauty.
Isabella Ricci has lived a quiet, safe life hidden within the confines of her many books and quaint home. She reveled in the boredom of her ordinary existence, even without the possibility of finding the love of her life. She tried that once…turns out men suck! Although her beauty matched her brains, she had no intentions of marrying any time soon.
But now she doesn’t have a choice.
Faced with losing their home, her parents are forced to put into effect a family tradition that sends Isabella spiraling. An arranged marriage. Isabella must wed the self-proclaimed most eligible bachelor of their small town Raja Benoit.
Life will never be the same for this beauty once her beast sends her fleeing for safety.

My Thoughts <3
This book was a Beauty and The Beast retelling and it is not an easy breezy story, there is a lot going on in this fairly fast read! I love everything about this fairy tale and enjoyed this retelling. As stated, there is a tint of darkness in this because Raja is a little dark himself, but is honestly a good guy and Isabella brings about a lightness to him.
All in all, I enjoyed this book! The author did a good job of bringing in aspects from Beauty in the Beast but also staying true to their own unique story. I give it 4 stars and look forward to the other books in this collection!
PS: Thank you to Cam Johns and EJ Book Promotions for allowing me an advanced copy of the book to read and review honestly!

Author Bio
The Rousing Romantic
Cam Johns began her career as a published author in 2016 with the release of her first book – Arousing Consequences – to the three-part series, The Arousing Series. However, actually publishing wasn’t part of her plan. After her husband was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, she found that writing became a great way to relieve the tension and mounted pressures that come with watching someone she loves suffer from such a harsh diagnosis. It was her husband that pushed her to share her voice, regardless of how erotic that voice would become.
Live. Love. Laugh. A well-known mantra that has become her way of living. Live, by accepting the things you cannot change. Love, the ones closest to you as if there’s no tomorrow. Laugh, each day because sadness will get you nowhere!
