Beauty's Beast“A wonderful mix of paranormal and historical romance . . . [an] utterly romantic story” from the New York Times-bestselling author of Dark of the Moon (Harlequin Junkie). Beauty Fair of face and figure, Kristine is young, innocent, pure. Yet she has been condemned to the gallows for killing a man. The only one who can save her is a lord so infamous that some say he is the son of the Devil himself . . . And the Beast Erik Trevayne is called the Demon Lord of Hawksbridge Castle, but few know of the curse he lives under. Or the terrifying changes slowly gnawing away at his humanity. When he weds her, all he wants of Kristine is a son. But when he beds her, a wild hope is born—that love that can tame even the most monstrous of beasts . . . Praise for Amanda Ashley “A master of her craft.” —Maggie Shayne, New York Times-bestselling author “Ashley is a master storyteller.” —RT Book Reviews |
