Bookish and the Beast

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Dead Romantics comes an enchanting YA romance that takes a fresh, geeky approach to the classic story of Beauty and the Beast. Rosie Thorne is feeling stuck—on her college application essays, in her small town, and on that mysterious General Sond cosplayer she met at ExcelsiCon. Most of all, she’s stuck in her grief over her mother’s death. Her only solace was her late mother’s library of rare Starfield novels, but even that disappeared when they sold it to pay off hospital bills. On the other hand, Vance Reigns has been Hollywood royalty for as long as he can remember—with all the privilege and scrutiny that entails. When a tabloid scandal catches up to him, he’s forced to hide out somewhere the paparazzi would never expect to find him: Small Town USA. At least there’s a library in the house. Too bad he doesn’t read. When Vance’s and Rosie’s paths collide, sparks do not fly. But as they begrudgingly get to know each other, their careful masks come off—and they may just find that there’s more risk in shutting each other out than in opening their hearts. A guarded hollywood heartthrob and a passionate book lover experience unexpected chemistry in this modern retelling of Beauty and the Beast Filled with bookish humor, celebrity culture, and geeky fandom references Explores themes of grief, healing, identity, and the courage to let someone new into your life Discover a bookish romance where love goes beyond first impressions.
