About this listen
Sometimes to truly know a person, you have to read between the lines.
Isabelle is completely lost. When she first began her career in publishing after college, she did not expect to be twenty-five, still living at home, and one of the few Black employees at her publishing house. Overworked and underpaid, constantly torn between speaking up or stifling herself, Izzy thinks there must be more to this publishing life. So when she overhears her boss complaining about a beastly high-profile author who has failed to deliver his long-awaited manuscript, Isabelle sees an opportunity to prove her worth and finally get the recognition she deserves. All she has to do is go to the author's Santa Barbara mansion and give him a quick pep talk or three. How hard could it be?
But Izzy quickly finds out she is in over her head. Beau Towers is not some celebrity lightweight writing a tell-all memoir. He is jaded and withdrawn and—it turns out—just as lost as Izzy. But despite his standoffishness, Izzy needs Beau to deliver, and with her encouragement, his story begins to spill onto the page. They soon discover they have more in common than either of them expected, and as their deadline nears, Izzy and Beau begin to realize there may be something there that wasn't there before.
Best-selling author Jasmine Guillory's reimagining of a beloved fairy tale is a tale as old as time . . . for a new generation.

Never did I think it would lead me straight into the arms of a serial killer. When the magazine I worked for sent me to write a piece on The Elysian, and the recluse architect who created it, I didn’t know what to expect. It certainly wasn’t him. He was supposed to be cold and cruel, but to me, he was Intoxicating. Magnetic. And impossible to quit. The deeper I fell, the harder it became to ignore a voice inside my head telling me that death followed Cain. I wanted to be wrong. Maybe it was all in my head. But I needed to find the answers. Nothing prepared me for what I found….

She wants to get a hobby, date around (especially women), flirt with everyone she sees, wear something not from the business casual section of her closet—all the fun stuff normal people do in their twenties. One problem: Avery doesn't know where to start. She doesn't have a lot of dating experience, with men or women, and despite being self-assured at work, she doesn't have a lot of confidence when it comes to romance. Enter Taylor Cameron, Napa Valley's biggest flirt.

In including a diverse casts it would have been great to use that to inform the work. Izzy could have been anyone. It almost felt like the Black Barbie’s of yesteryear, just make he Black with nothing else. Overall cute story/adaptation. The voice actress did a great job

My heart is so full!!!
I absolutely LOVED this book (especially after reading something a lot heavier). This book gave me all the feels and totally made me want to go a write a book. The modernized version of Beauty and the Beast was adorable. I was never a major fan of that movie but this version was EVERYTHING! I would love to see this as a film especially with the characters being black. The angst and passion between Izzy and Beau definitely made me fight back tears a few times. I loved them so much. Such a light, fluffy, enjoyable read. I'll definitely be reading more from this author.

THE NARRATOR VOICE IS ANNOYING
I really tried to enjoy this book, but the narrators voice was not a good fit.

Need men readers
Good book but needs a male reader the female reader did not do the man justice. The words did not ring true.
Overall enjoyed the book
