Description

“Eloisa James’s writing is absolutely exquisite.”
—New York Times bestselling author Teresa Medeiros

“Nothing gets me to a bookstore faster than a new novel by Eloisa James.”

—New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn
A wonderful spin on a much-beloved fairy tale, Eloisa James’s When Beauty Tamed the Beast is heart-soaring and fun historical romance at its finest. No wonder People magazine raves about her books, saying, “Romance writing does not get much better than this.” Eloisa’s delightful take on Beauty and the Beast unfolds in Regency England, where a beastly, bad-tempered Earl matches wits with a brazen beauty who has vowed to make the handsome grump fall in love with her in two short weeks.

    Can’t believe I waited so long to read this book. It was utterly fascinating, funny, ridiculous, heart wrenching and informative. The H and h were a perfect compliment to each other; all the side characters just flowed effortlessly thru out the book. I laughed and cried reading this book and I look forward to reading-reading several times. Kudos to the author.
  • Great read

    I agree with the reviews. There was a lot of depth to this book with unexpected twists. It is about love and forgiveness. I found myself laughing out loud at the banter between the main characters. Thank you for this book!!!

    This was an absolute page turner and I was sad when I finished it! I envy those who still get to experience reading it for the first time.

    I'm a sucker for a dark brooding hero and a witty intelligent heroin. If that is up your alley then this is the book for you. Witty banter coupled with A great storyline make this book a keeper.

    I couldn't put this book down, I was so engaged in the story. I cried, I laughed, I wanted to scream at the hero sometimes. It was everything a good book should be. I wish it didn't have to end.
  • Wonderful read

    I bought the ebook around midnight and started reading. Bad idea. I stayed up late into the morning reading it. It was so hard to put down! The leads were wonderful. The chemistry between the two was amazing. I had so much fun reading their story. Everyone must read this book!!
