Pages : 227
Book Description
Much like every other woman who has ever come in contact with Alexander Warrene, eighteen-year-old Tiffany Marlowe is utterly captivated by the handsome and charming Earl of Chesterfield, despite his reputation as a shameless rogue. With no pressing desire to alter his unfettered lifestyle, Alex knows that Tiffany, the innocent young beauty who rouses his passion like no other, is strictly off-limits, even though he might wish it otherwise. However, when Tiffany’s father presents him with an unexpected proposition, an unorthodox wager that could finally afford him something else he’s wanted for a very long time, he suddenly has a decision to make, whether or not he is willing to risk the bachelorhood he so heartily enjoys. Unaware that she has become an innocent pawn in a long-standing contretemps between her father and the Earl of Chesterfield, Tiffany willingly surrenders her heart to the man she adores, and soon discovers the true meaning of desire under Alex’s skillful tutelage. However, when Tiffany unwittingly learns about the secret wager between her father and Alex, both her heart and her dreams are suddenly shattered. Forced to acknowledge his true feelings for Tiffany once and for all, Alex knows that he will not only have to earn her forgiveness, but also regain her trust, if he has any hope at all of recapturing the heart of the woman he has come to love above all else. The Reformed Rakes Series: Book 1 – Until You (Nicholas) Book 2 – You, and Only You (Alex) Book 3 – When Only a Rake Will Do (Brendon) (Although these books are part of a series, each can be read as a stand-alone novel.)

Beastly Beauty
Author: Jennifer Donnelly
Publisher: Scholastic Inc.
ISBN: 1338809466
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
*"A dreamy, sublimely written tale." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review From New York Times bestselling, award-winning author Jennifer Donnelly comes a revolutionary, gender-swapped retelling of Beauty and the Beast that will forever change how you think about beauty, power, and what it really means to follow your heart. What makes a girl "beastly?" Is it having too much ambition? Being too proud? Taking up too much space? Or is it just wanting something, anything, too badly? That's the problem Arabella faces when she makes her debut in society. Her parents want her to be sweet and compliant so she can marry well, but try as she might, Arabella can't extinguish the fire burning inside her -- the source of her deepest wishes, her wildest dreams. When an attempt to suppress her emotions tragically backfires, a mysterious figure punishes Arabella with a curse, dooming her and everyone she cares about, trapping them in the castle. As the years pass, Arabella abandons hope. The curse is her fault -- after all, there's nothing more "beastly" than a girl who expresses her anger -- and the only way to break it is to find a boy who loves her for her true self: a cruel task for a girl who's been told she's impossible to love. When a handsome thief named Beau makes his way into the castle, the captive servants are thrilled, convinced he is the one to break the curse. But Beau -- spooked by the castle's strange and forbidding ladies-in-waiting, and by the malevolent presence that stalks its corridors at night -- only wants to escape. He learned long ago that love is only an illusion. If Beau and Arabella have any hope of breaking the curse, they must learn to trust their wounded hearts, and realize that the cruelest prisons of all are the ones we build for ourselves.
