The book also poked fun at the fairytale connection by mentioning it within the text too and I liked how it became a bit meta. They are ready to be “sinful” to reach their goals, and Kitty decides to do this by declaring herself betrothed to a duke. Especially as I've read book 2 since last time, so Maryann talking about a certain Marquess hit differently now. I couldn't rate the story as couldn't endure the narrator that far, however the author should have some say over its performance if this is how she perceived it I cannot think I would be a ble to endure other books. Then one day Alexander finds out about the rumors and want to know everything about Katherine so he requests that all the newspapers are brought to him daily, and every time he reads the papers he becomes more and more intrigued by Katherine and decides he needs to meet her.

Alexander is scarred and unable to walk very well on his own, but he is so stubborn and pushes himself way beyond his limits. Kitty, in turn, finds Alexander roguishly sexy despite the injuries from a fire that have scarred half his face, made walking difficult, and rendered him impotent.

I found their conversations surrounding his injuries and how they have impacted him and how he’s altered his hopes for a future to be poignant and well done. But after hearing news of their supposed engagement, Alexander started keeping a close eye on the scandal sheets and became fascinated by the woman who claimed to be his fiancé - so fascinated that he decided to take the trip to London to meet her, despite not being out in society for around 10 years.She is not at all concerned about what his accident means for a potential future and family with him, she just loves him. She also pauses weightily every 3 or 4 words and even listening at 2 times speed she sounded slow and weird.

I started this one in audio, and while the narrator seemed okay, she was a bit quiet and I found her cadence distracting for some reason, so I switched to the ebook.I think she is not English by birth and thus is trying to do an English accent but it sounds completely and utterly ridiculous. I love Stacy Reid’s writing style and have enjoyed many of her books but this one was way too slow and the narrator was horrible. Surely he’ll never find out before her sisters’ weddings, and she can go back to her own quiet life. Before she knows it, Katherine has transformed herself into Kitty Danvers, charming and clever belle of the ton-with everyone eager to meet her thankfully absent fiance. Kitty is a world-weary twenty-three, and with her hopes for a husband and children fading, she and her friends decide to be “sinful.

Once upon a time, there lived a girl named Fallon who was taken far away from home shortly after she was born. After four seasons of being overlooked, Katherine ‘Kitty’ Danvers (23) is desperate to secure herself a marriage to save her family from financial ruin and to make sure her younger sisters are able to secure suitable matches. Stacy Reid was really able to bring something new to the table and offer a different depiction of the 'Beast'.I felt for his loneliness and was so happy that he ultimately found intimate tenderness in the silence he shared with Kitty. I only wish I was able to connect with the characters, because it’s really hard to find books which this rep, specially with the degree of disability Alexander (H) had. It made me really excited to read the other books in this series, and I think Stacy Reid set it all perfectly.
