One can never get enough retellings of Beauty and the Beast, at least that is what I keep telling myself. This was different than I was expecting, especially, since I have only known this author from her modernization of Hades, Zeus, and Poseidon stories. However, even though this is different than those stories, I really enjoyed myself.
It took me a little bit to figure out where I knew some of the side characters from, but once I did it made the story have that much more impact. It was dirty and decadent and I loved the depravity or characteristics of Leo. I found myself drawn to Leo as he interacted with Haley. I wasn't as sure about Haley because her character didn't have the oomph that Leo did but I am hoping that will change in the next book. I appreciated the intermingling of worlds and found that it made me want to either go read the other characters' books or do a reread if I had previously read them.
There were a few areas that I wished had been fleshed out more (mainly Caroline and how the book came to the pivotal ending. There is a whopper of a cliffhanger and had me muttering, "Oh, no she didn't" in regard to the last lines so I am looking forward to where she takes this book next. (
