A wonderful spin on a much-beloved fairy tale, Eloisa Jamesβs When Beauty Tamed the Beast is a heart-soaring and fun historical romance at its finest. No wonder People magazine raves about her books, saying, βRomance writing does not get much better than this.β
Eloisaβs 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.
Piers Yelverton, Earl of Marchant, lives in a castle in Wales where, it is rumored, his bad temper flays everyone he crosses. Heβs a Beast.
Miss Linnet Thynne is one of the most exquisite young ladies ever to grace Londonβs ballrooms. Sheβs a Beauty.
But waitβthereβs more! Piers is a doctor: brilliant, lame, and impossible to get along with. Thereβs a version of him on Fox TV, named after a habitation. Linnet has been involved in a scandalous flirtation with a prince, and everyone in the ton thinks sheβs carrying a royal child: she needs a husband.
Linnet estimates it will take two weeksβat the outsideβto bring the earl to his knees. Piers knows that he will never fall in love, and definitely never marry.
