Beauty’s Beast
by Jane E Jones
Holly is a beautiful young woman who cares for her family, and works hard to help them. From a young age she realizes that her mother has no real love for her, so Holly sneaks off to the woods to dream and to watch the town’s beast from a distance.
Alexavier Verrada is a man with power and wealth. He decides he wants Holly, and sends a loyal servant to fetch her to be his bride even though he is a beast.
Holly and Alexavier come from different worlds, but Alexavier figures Holly desires him since she has watched him as a child, but he is unaware of Ristan, the man Holly loves. Holly goes to Alexavier to give her family a better life. She has been instructed not to react to Alexavier’s appearance in any way. Holly does as she is told, and she feels Alexavier’s passions. Slowly she lets her guard down, and realizes that she loves Alexavier, beast or not. Then one day she discovers that due to a curse Alexavier and Ristan are the one and the same. Holly now has to decide which one lives or dies.
Beauty’s Beast is a beautifully written story that pulls you in. It makes you realizes that looks don’t matter, but what is inside is important. The characters in this story hold you captive making you love them. You also feel their pain.
