Publisher's Summary

Princess Sophia has helped her twin sister Lily save the duchy of Marin. But now Sophie faces an even greater threat when she sets out to free the cursed kingdom of Palinar from its beastly prince.

Alone, and with danger on every side, Sophie must navigate a magical castle and its even more mysterious master to discover the secret to breaking the curse. Except the more time she spends with Prince Dominic, the more she starts to question who exactly she's supposed to be saving.

With time running out for the trapped inhabitants, and the reappearance of an old enemy, Sophie may have to choose between saving the kingdom and following her heart. In this reimagining of the classic fairy tale Beauty and the Beast, Beauty will have to use all of her strength and intelligence if she is to outwit her enemies, break a curse, and find true love.

A nice retelling

This is the third Melanie Cellier book I have listened to, but it wasn’t my favourite. I guess I found the lack of honest communication between Sophie and Dominic a little frustrating. But besides that, I did enjoy the story. And I hope Gordon is given a position in the stables one day!

The narrator was quite good, though her male voices aren’t my favourite. Her timing and storytelling ability made up for the Beast’s less-than-wonderful voice though.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
