Book Description
What if Beauty was the Beast? Lise's father is dead, and the life of plenty and freedom that she has known as the daughter of the King's Huntsman is gone. She must now live a life of duty to her mother and sisters, helping them to cope in their altered circumstances. But where her mother would have her wed a childhood friend to secure their future, Lise knows that is not what she longs for. When she meets a mysterious woman in the forest, Lise feels the stirrings of emotions she cannot give voice to, but with this woman, she doesn't have to say anything-Senna knows. Cursed, hunted, and feared, Senna has been forced to wander from place to place for more years than she cares to remember. She gave up hope long ago that there could ever be an end to her isolation. Odd sightings in the forest-monsters of legend come to life, old enemies back from the past, fearsome beasts on the prowl-begin to frighten the people of Lise's village. Somehow, all of these things are connected to Senna. As the villagers' fear grows, so does their hatred. Senna prepares to flee, accepting what has become her fate, but Lise isn't ready to give up her one chance for happiness. Soon, only Lise stands between the villagers and the woman she has grown to love.

Book Description
Filled with magic and fierce emotion, Lisa Jensen's multilayered novel will make you question all you think you know about beauty, beastliness, and happily ever after. They say Château Beaumont is cursed. But servant-girl Lucie can’t believe such foolishness about handsome Jean-Loup Christian Henri LeNoir, Chevalier de Beaumont, master of the estate. But when the chevalier's cruelty is revealed, Lucie vows to see him suffer. A wisewoman grants her wish, with a spell that transforms Jean-Loup into monstrous-looking Beast, reflecting the monster he is inside. But Beast is nothing like the chevalier. Jean-Loup would never patiently tend his roses; Jean-Loup would never attempt poetry; Jean-Loup would never express remorse for the wrong done to Lucie. Gradually, Lucie realizes that Beast is an entirely different creature from the handsome chevalier, with a heart more human than Jean-Loup’s ever was. Lucie dares to hope that noble Beast has permanently replaced the cruel Jean-Loup — until an innocent beauty arrives at Beast’s château with the power to break the spell.

Book Description
Once upon a time, I fell for a man. Then I met the Beast. BROOKE He's huge. Dangerous. And angry. And I can never love him again. I left my hometown for a reason. Coming back was never part of the plan. But the job I came here to do is more important than my tortured past -- and everything I left behind to escape it. Now I'm a federal agent, working a case deeply rooted in the community, And his club is in the middle of an investigation I'm about to crack wide open. We almost happened when I was younger. I was vulnerable. Innocent. Until it all got taken away from me. Since then, I've learned how to protect myself. How to size up danger and neutralize the threat. But Beast is an alpha male who won't take no for an answer. And my heart isn't listening to my head. I don't want to fall for Beast again. I can't get hurt again. But the harder I fight this attraction, the harder it becomes to resist. BEAST She left me and took what was left of my damn heart with her. Seeing Brooke again is something I swore I'd never do. But when she shows back up in our hometown, I can't f*cking resist. I fell in love with her for a reason. And this time, she's not f*cking running away from me. But Brooke is putting things in danger. She's uncovering sh*t that's hidden for a reason. My club, Lords of Carnage MC, could explode if she keeps f*cking digging. My d*ck wants her but my mind is stubborn, forcing me to keep my distance. I knew she'd get under my skin again. I knew I wouldn't be able to resist after the first taste. I knew once my hands touched her f*cking skin I'd turn into the Beast she's so afraid of. Except I've never followed any man's rules. Not even my own. Brooke is my f*cking property. My responsiblity. My damn woman. And I will do any-f*cking-thing to keep her safe.

Book Description
A tale as old as time is made new in Ashley Poston's fresh, geeky retelling of Beauty and the Beast—now with a bonus Starfield story! Rosie Thorne is feeling stuck—on her college application essays, in her small town, and on that mysterious General Sond cosplayer she met at ExcelsiCon. Most of all, she’s stuck in her grief over her mother’s death. Her only solace was her late mother’s library of rare Starfield novels, but even that disappeared when they sold it to pay off hospital bills. On the other hand, Vance Reigns has been Hollywood royalty for as long as he can remember—with all the privilege and scrutiny that entails. When a tabloid scandal catches up to him, he’s forced to hide out somewhere the paparazzi would never expect to find him: Small Town USA. At least there’s a library in the house. Too bad he doesn’t read. When Vance’s and Rosie’s paths collide, sparks do not fly. But as they begrudgingly get to know each other, their careful masks come off—and they may just find that there’s more risk in shutting each other out than in opening their hearts.
