I got this book while thrifting and was drawn in by the advertisement of Beauty and the Beast... with emphasis on the Beast. Mikki is an independent woman who find herself in the Realm of Roses and is given the task of tending to the flowers, something she has a natural talent for. Her companions? The four Elements and the mysterious Guardian. A beast. Who she can't help but be fond of despite the cold treatment to him from all her handmaidens. They fear him, yet she is curious. From the beginning, Mikki sees him as a human despite his beastly exterior. She treats him with kindness and it is emphasized that it is her maturity and older age compared to the rest of everyone in the Realm that allows her to look past his exterior. Her love for him is gradual as he helps her navigate the Realm but there is also some instant lust that helped with that. Watching the Guardian hold himself back from Mikki's kindness broke my heart. He has never been treated with respect before. The moment he finds out that she is in love with him had me squealing!
Spice - 5/5 IT'S SPICY LMAO. The build up to it almost makes you want to scream like juST GET IN BED TOGETHER ALREADY.
This book is for everyone who fell in love with the Beast, and then was truly disappointed when he turned into a handsome prince.
Warm regards,
