✅ Beauty and the Beast retelling (but much spicier and kinkier) ✅ Smut✅ Funny ✅ Strong heroine✅ Pace 🆗✅ Intrigue❗️❗️ Explicit sexual scenes❗️❗️ Also, there is some explicit (sexual) language in the quotes included in this review “You’ll need that fire before the end. Mark my words, princess, before this is all over, I will ruin you.” Wow, this book was funny and entertaining! And such a quick read, it was exactly what I needed today! Honestly, I had no idea I was nearing the end, I was...

Not for me, however there is a HUGE audience that this will be for! The author was “let off her leash”*I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review*This book is marketed for fans of Sarah J Maas and Jennifer L Armentrout and I will disagree with that and say this is more for fans of Flames of Chaos! This is an NA fantasy beauty and the beast retelling. Normally 100% my favorite type of things to read. However, this was a not so loose interpretation. There was an attempt at making it thei...

how was the female main getting wet down there every time the H uttered a word when i was sitting here NUMB the whole time while listening to the audiobook??? either i need a therapist or our homegirl needs a gynaec. stat.

Anyone would say "Beauty and the Beast" and I know I would read it in a beat. This book sounds so promising with enemies to lovers, anti-hero accompanied by dark and spicy shapeshifter concept. The book started great and it was an easy and fast read for me. I know I would love this one. Sadly, this doesn't last long as I started to find the writing juvenile and it does not align with the adult characters, making it quite hard to read. I couldn't take the immaturity. The world-building was a bit

Well this one was mother-freaking fun! And SPICY.

I just thoroughly enjoyed the ever living hell out of this book.A Beauty and the Beast retelling (beginning) that was snarky, irreverent, poignant, adventurous, fun, and completely unputdownable. I didn't eat lunch or dinner today, I couldn't spare the time.Our heroine is Finley, and she is hilarious. All parts* of her are funny. But not as hilarious as the thin mustached butler, Hadriel. Once you read it, you'll understand.Nyfain is our hero and he is confusing. He runs hot and cold and is just...

i'm writing this 'review' when I'm completely drunk so take it with a grain of salt, but no just no <3

Did I clutch my pearls? Yes. But this book snapped me out of my long book slump with snarky humor and a heroine who was easy to love. As always with K.F. Breene books, the side characters add layers. Nyfain, the brutal dragon-king of the story, is completely intriguing. 5/5

2 - ⭐️⭐️“The past grievances of your village and your brother are erased. I will show them no wrath. Come now. You must pay for your sins.”A Ruin of Roses is a dark and sexy retelling of the Beauty and the Beast that is spectacularly debauched.There is plenty of debauchery in this book and while I usually do not mind vulgar language and explicit scenes—this did not deliver what was promised and the premise gave me different expectations.At first I was wholly immersed, but then as the story progr...

Excellent cover, similar to Sarah J Maas, and a beauty and the beast retelling. Quite frankly a recipe for success but unfortunately it falls flat.I realize there is a niche for BATB retellings and making the stories geared towards adults is fantastic. The problem that I have with this book is I didn’t know wether to laugh or grimace.My best rendition for a summary is as follows:Girl is sassy and makes things.Girl likes to say FUCK a lot. Book could be set in the past/future/ both???? There was

1.5/5.0Wow, this was not at ALL what I thought it would be, nor even what the synopsis promises. I picked it up because I really enjoy Beauty and the Beast retellings, as it has always been a favorite of mine. Usually the original is just the basis for a completely new and creative story. This one, however, is EXACTLY like the original, from the beautiful but quirky poor girl, hunky bully who wants to marry her, beast in the woods, etc. etc…. Right down to the wilting flower hidden away in the c...

A dark fairytale it was not.The blurb says it is a beauty and the beast retelling, I don't think it was. Just because there was a beast and a beauty does not make it Beauty and the Beast.Was it delicious? Oh absolutely. I have read several K. F Breene and I think this is the first one that I've read that was this erotic. I have come to expect a certain level of heat when I'm reading her books so when I started this , I had to pause and make sure it was the same author that I knew. The storylin...

Where to start.....I can not quite put my finger on it but something was missing for me. At times I felt it was world related but in the end the storyline felt as if something needed to be added. There was moments I was waiting for the other shoe to drop or for a surprise to be revealed or something shocking....but it was not there. Nyfain is an issue for me for sure. Here we have a MC where his animal side wants Finley with every fiber of its being. On the other hand the human side of Nyfain fi...

beautiful cover tricked me..1,5⭐

5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🖤Follow me on Instagram for more edits🖤I loved absolutely everything about this book! I think this is my first 5 stara no doubts this year.Hold on to your panties ladies, cos this is no Disney vanilla fairytale, instead it comes with a high dose of spicy,dark and ovaries explosions lol plus lots of hilariousness.We get immersed in this kingdom of shifters cursed and now ruled by demons. I loved the world the author had created, how nobody can shift or feel their animal because of the curs...

"Damn it, now I was thinking in dad jokes.""I jumped. My pocketknife tumbled from my fingers. Fuck! I dropped the fucking knife. Hold on to your dicks, folks, this is about to get hairy."And other similar choice tidbits are why I DNFed this at the speed of light. Even if it was contemporary YA I'd find this writing juvenile at best and absolutely brain-melting at worst, but this...Seems to be set in a medieval kingdom similar to the source material? Sooo...PASS.

Brilliantly reimaginedWhat's better than a K.F. Breene series? Well, a new K.F. Breene series, of course! OK, not completely true, since I will read just about whatever Queen Breene has to offer, and the first book of this new series, a completely new version of the known and beloved story of Beauty and the Beast, falls into the "total treat" category.Finley is a heroine after my own heart: selfless, loving, fearless, and totally bada**! And I dare you not to fall head over heels in love with Ny...

I didn't know I needed a dark and extremely smutty Beauty & the Beast retelling in my life until I read A Ruin of Roses by K. F. Breene. This is an 18+ NA fantasy retelling.The author brings lots of twists to the story, the connection to the original fairy-tale is there but its loose which makes it completely new. The worldbuilding was completely unexpected for me, full of evil demons and horrifying creatures who have taken over the kingdom and the surrounding villages. The dialogues were shocki...
