Blurb:
Connor Prince is a beast.

He’s a rich, controlling, handsome ex-movie star with one dream left in his cold, godforsaken heart.

He wants a baby, and he wants me to be his surrogate.

I thought he was just a weirdly good-looking, grumpy hobo until he took me to his freakin’ castle and made me an indecent proposal.

The contract doesn’t actually look too bad.

All I have to do is hang out for nine months getting pedicures and massages while gestating his child.

I’ll even have a chef.

And I need the money.

My profession, making gory practical effects for horror and sci-fi movies, isn’t exactly a growth industry.

Since my family is on the verge of bankruptcy and I just got fired and blacklisted for kicking a spectacularly creepy B-list actor in the nuts for groping me, this could solve all my problems.

But the castle ends up being a gilded cage, with Connor controlling what I can eat, where I can go, and what I can do.

He’s driving me up the wall with his growling, snarly crap.

Between pregnancy hormones, Connor pushing me to the limits of my patience, and the fact that he’s absurdly hot under the mountain man beard, frustrations are rising quickly.

The angry kind. And the sexy kind.

I’m beginning to suspect that a good man might be lurking under Connor’s permanent scowl, but I know getting entangled with him is a terrible idea.

He’s got demons and secrets, and I’m… what exactly?

I’m the girl with crooked pigtails and paint splattered overalls who makes badass blood geysers and werewolf puppets.

I deal in fake monsters. Not real ones.

I’m not the right girl for Connor Prince.

Which is really unfortunate because I might be falling in love with him…

My Review…

Another new to me author and now another author to fangirl over!

I enjoyed Ms. Holloway’s twist the beloved fairy tale Beauty and the Beast.

This the story of the beastly Connor and the lovely Isabelle.

Isabelle isn’t just a beauty, she is fierce and stubborn and oh so loyal to her family.  When faced with a life-altering decision, she pushes until she gets what she wants.  And then she gets even more!

Connor thinks he is a beast, but really he is just a falsely accused hero.  He just wants to keep what he loves close and block out the rest of the world that has turned it’s back on him.

The chemistry between Connor and Isabelle is off the charts hot and the dialogue between the two of them is funny, fresh and swoony!

I loved the secondary characters! I loved trying to figure out how they fit in the original fairy tale.

I was excited and honored to be able to read this story and I can’t wait for the next stories in this series next!
