This novel is an adaptation of Beauty and the Beast. Blind since birth, Elle Duncan has only ever known darkness, but lack of sight has never hindered her ability to perceive the beauty of the world. Her kind and gentle soul is put to the test when her father sustains an injury that threatens their livelihood, and in desperation, he turns to the most unlikely of saviors-the Rossetti Beast. Don Rossetti is bound for an unchanging fate. He is bad-tempered, with an equally dark and scarred countenance to match. With a heart forged of ice and a soul confined to darkness, he has surrendered to a forlorn existence. But when a peasant man arrives from the village begging for a favor, he is compelled to aid the farmer in exchange for a price-a price that Elle will be forced to pay.

Neal stepped forward, he reached out a hand, tracing every inch of bare skin. My body flamed with his touch. He placed one hand over my heart. It pounded in my chest like it was trying to burst free into Neal's intense, sensual touch. It knew exactly where we belonged, right there with Neal. "Cynthia, there was never any choice, it was always you." He closed the last bit of space that remained between us, our lips pressed together, mouths mingling. His tongue slide inside mine, exploring while I explored his. With one swift motion, Neal brought us together until it was impossible to tell where I ended and Neal began. I moaned into his mouth, my nails diffing into the back of his shoulders. My stomach flipped and a need started to grow deep inside me. ************************************************************************************ Cynthia has never been one with her pack. Her maternal bloodline had been long-standing Beta's in the Oak Creek pack until her mother made a near fatal error, falling in love with a man from the outside. Cynthia knew nothing of her father, she didn't even know what he looked like. All pictures had been destroyed, and so had he. She wanted nothing more than to leave, but she stayed for her mother who stayed for goddess knows what reason. That wasn't the only reason Cynthia was ostracized by her pack though, it was because unlike anyone else, Cynthia's goddess given wolf abilities had never manifested fully like they were supposed to. Instead, her father's abilities ran through her veins, overpowering the animal inside. But what happens when Cynthia discovers that there is enough wolf in her to grant her that same connection werewolves seek? What happens when she discovers there's a mate out there for her too, and that it just so happens to be the Alpha's son?

"Do you have a death wish? You cannot seriously be thinking of going there? That place, those people... they are... not like us, not like other creatures of their kind either!" "He means to say that they are of a far more powerful than us. They are hybrids!" "Exactly. People of their own race fear them. The whole clan is dangerous. They wiped out an entire species for God's sake!" "There is a tacit rule in our world- Keep your hands off Lycorian gems and Lycorian girls." His friends were trying to talk some sense into him. But nothing could deter him because he had already made his choice. Sighing, he calmly stood up and then looked at them over his shoulders, "Their priceless gems are nothing to me; but their princess is everything to me!" ___ ©shruthii

[Rated R for violence, gore, and sexual content) Ever since Rina heard the tales of how her werewolf pack was saved by the Hellions of Alastar, she has wanted to join their ranks and become a Hellion herself. To be a Hellion is to be a hunter, a weapon that not only protects humans from creatures of the dark, but protects those very same creatures from themselves. Assigned to Rina as her personal instructor is Zachariah, one of the oldest Hellions to survive the job. He's not at all what she expects. Not only is he unmotivated to take his position seriously, but at their first meeting, the vampire mentions his peculiar taste in blood, which Rina-a half-werewolf half-human-apparently fulfills in every aspect! Becoming a Hellion won't be easy. Not only does she have to come to terms with her strengths and weaknesses as a halfling, but once Zachariah gets a taste of her blood, the vampire begins to rouse an addiction other than his own.

The first time I saw him, my bones turned to water and I knew I would fall at his hands. They called it destiny, for he was the son of the last great Alpha King, the throne destroyed and the crown no more. It was destiny that he would try and rebuild the kingdom his ancestors had built. Yet he saw something in me, a mysterious attraction to a girl born into no power or destiny of her own, but told she was more worth more than she ever imagined. <><> The fourth and final book in the Broken Crown series. You do not have to read the other books to understand what is going on (each book but Sybil can be read as a stand-alone), but it gives more fulfillment to have read the others first.
