Publisher's Summary:
Safely hidden within the estate's enchanted walls, Benella no longer has time to fear her tormentors. She's too preoccupied attempting to determine what makes the beast so beastly. It might be the taxing visits from the aged enchantress who cursed him or his growing vexation at not being allowed to touch Benella.
In order to gain her freedom, she must find a way to break the curse, but first, she must help him become a better man while protecting her heart.
Intended for adult listeners due to sexual situations, violence, and moderate language.

I'm in love! Doesn't hurt that some scenes fogged up my glasses
I love this telling of beauty and the beast. She is even strong in this story than the one I heard as a child.
She faces many hardships because of her sisters and how nice she is. I feel her niceness will be her undoing. She doesn't try to hold the monsters and the would be rapists at fault or try to find a way to stop them.
I so happy I decided to pick up this book it was a joy to listen to. The narrator is amazing she brought this tell to life.
Grab this book you will fall in love with it!
All of Me
This series had all of me. It consumed me. The grit, pain, and triumph was all too much while not enough. Unforgettable. I beyond recommend this series to anyone and everyone.
A long slow moving story
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
A better edited story would have made this a wonderful listening experience.

no

The performance was the only saving grace in a story that went on too long.
What character would you cut from Deceit?
None
Any additional comments?
Depravity, Deceit and Devastation, the Beauty and the Beast trilogy by M.J. Haag should have been one book. The story drags on so long; you tire of Beauty, her nasty sisters and her good intentions. Theres so much potential with this story that editing could have fixed. I suffered through to the end but it wasnt worth it.
No sophomore slump here
Love love love it on to part 3 for me! This is an adult retelling of my fave fairy tale and this installment is the most brutal. Secrets and lies all over the place.
Enhanced by Narration, a Connection Grows
