A fresh twist on a classic story, Bellamy and the Brute
proves true love really is blind. When Bellamy McGuire is offered a summer job babysitting for
the wealthy Baldwin family, she's reluctant to accept. After
all, everyone in town knows about the mysterious happenings
at the mansion on the hill—including the sudden
disappearance of the Baldwin's eldest son, Tate. The former
football star and golden boy of Wellhollow Springs became a
hermit at the age of sixteen, and no one has seen or heard
from him since. Rumors abound as to why, with whisperings
about a strange illness—one that causes deformity and turned
him into a real-life monster. Bellamy wants to dismiss these
rumors as gossip, but when she's told that if she takes the
job, she must promise to never, ever visit the third floor
of the mansion, she begins to wonder if there really is some
dark truth hidden there. Tate's condition may not be the only secret being kept at
Baldwin House. There are gaps in the family's financial
history that don't add up, and surprising connections with
unscrupulous characters. At night there are strange noises,
unexplained cold drafts, and the electricity cuts out. And
then there are the rose petals on the staircase. The rose
petals that no one but Bellamy seems to be able to see. The
rose petals that form a trail leading right up to the 3 rd
floor, past the portrait of a handsome young man, and down a
dark hallway where she promised she would never, ever go… As Bellamy works to unravel the mysteries of Baldwin House
and uncover the truth about Tate, she realizes that she is
in way over her head… in more ways than one. Can her bravery
and determination help to right the wrongs of the past and
free the young man whose story has captured her heart?
