Welcome to Teaser Tuesday hosted by Ambrosia @ The Purple Booker.
My Teaser for this week is from
Of Beast And Beauty
by Stacey Jay
Genre: Fantasy / Romance
My teaser from page in the Paperback.
The roses are tired of being teased with a drop or two of what they crave; they grow eager for a proper feeding.
“It isn’t time,” I whisper as I pass them by.

Read on if you want to know more.
Synopsis
For Cinder fans, a fantasy retelling of Beauty and the Beast with a flipped script in which the Beauty becomes the Beast . . .
It’s pointless. Hopeless. Even if she weren’t afraid of me, we’ll always be enemies at the core. . . .
In the city of Yuan, the blind Princess Isra is raised to be a human sacrifice. Her death will ensure her city’s vitality.
In the desert, a mutant beast named Gem fights to save his people, known as the Monstrous, from starvation.
Neither dreams that, together, they can return balance to their worlds.
When Gem is captured for trying to steal Yuan’s enchanted roses, he becomes a prisoner of the city. Isra enlists his help, and soon begins to care for him—and to question everything she has been brought up to believe. . . .
She’s a queen; I’m her prisoner. I am her monster and she is mine. . . .

I have this one on TBR mountain. I am a fan of Beauty and the Beast retellings. My teaser this week is from a cozy mystery – Bad Housekeeping by Maia Chance. Happy reading!
An author recommended this one to me. Can’t wait to read it.
Drat. I had a book I wanted to share. I meant to start TTs again this week. Oh well…I do like learning others secrets.

Go ahead and start a draft so you will be reminded next week, Sherry.
I hadn’t seen this one before. Sounds like an interesting twist to the story. Good teaser. I’d read on to see what those roses are fed.
And I love when an author gives me a new twist:)
I love the sound of this one, Laura:). I’ll have to look out for it – it sounds fascinating. Thank you for sharing – and popping in for a visit.
It’s been a while since I read a retelling that wasn’t horror. LOL This sounds so good. Yours is one I would love to read too. Great looking series!
Ooh nice! I read this one earlier this year, finally! Lol! Really liked it! Hope you will too! Thanks for visiting my blog!
Yeah. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I’m looking forward to getting into this one.
Gorgeous cover and great teaser! Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.
It all looks and sounds fascinating:)
This sounds promising! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
I know. Can’t wait to get into it!
If I ever get my TBR knocked down a little I’ll be adding this to it 🙂
I hear ya. LOL I whittle mine down and add more and so on and so on….
Oh! I have this one. Definitely looking forward to it 😀
So am I and I’m curious what you think of it when you’re finished with it.
Beauty becomes the beast? You’ve got my attention 🙂
Everything about this book got mine:)
This sounds really interesting – so many Beauty and the Beast re-tellings but never seen one where they flip the genders! Might look it out 🙂
There’s much different about this I’m excited about it:)
Sorry I’m late! But this sounds like my kind of book. I LOVE Beauty & the Beast retellings! I hope you’ve enjoyed it. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by my blog too 🙂
No worries. It takes a lot of time to visit and comment:) This retelling is unique and sure has me curious!
