When Beauty Tamed the Beast
Synopsis
Jilted publicly by a prince who reneges on his promise to marry her, Linnet Thrynne becomes London society's favorite scandal — deemed ruined by rumor as much as fact. Sent to a remote Welsh estate to marry Piers Yelverton, Earl of Marchant, a brilliant, acid-tongued physician whose chronic pain and family wounds have convinced him he's incapable of loving anyone.
Linnet sets out to win him over anyway, certain she can thaw a man everyone else has given up on — never suspecting how much of her own heart she stands to lose in the attempt. The second book in Eloisa James's Fairy Tales series, a Regency-set Beauty and the Beast retelling.
