Astrid and her beast

Outstanding twist on beauty and the beast!!!! I think this is my favorite version thus far!!! Nathaniel is dark anti hero,very complexed and a true beast,but Astrid is strong ,smart and brave with the heart of a lioness and a worthy mate for the bastard of beswick!! The storytelling was fabulous and I loved how both nathaniel and astrid were such memorable characters. The sexual chemistry was off the charts and the intimate moments not only steamy,but at times tender and heartbreaking. Their is also a humor element though out the book that had me laughing. I won't soon forget about the rooster in Nathaniel pants!! Lol ! I have loved beauty and beast since I was kid and it's still my fave fairytale of all time. We all want to be loved for who we are not how we look and I think that is why so many are pulled to this tale. I could not put down this book,it had my full attention between the amazing writing and even better characters!! This is my first book by Amalie Howard but it won't be the last!! I knew when I saw this cover and read the first impressions on bookishFirst that it would be a fabulous read and the beast was not even mentioned,but it was Astrid that sold me!!! I love a strong take charge woman!! Until next time luv's💞💋

I want to thank bookishfirst and Entangled publishing for this copy I won😉
