Summary inside.

The darkness engulfs me. For years I have been lying here, where time has no meaning. Years feel like minutes, days feel like seconds. I do not know how long I have been here. I do not know how long I will stay. All I have left are my memories of the life that I left oh so many years ago. I wait. I wait until it is my turn to be brought back. I wait to live the life I was meant to live. Away from the hospital.

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.
