Beauty and the Beast retelling meets hockey romanceBlair Adams’s dreams are finally coming true– well, almost. Getting accepted into Happily Ever After University is like winning a golden ticket to guaranteed success, at least, once you graduate. Attaining perfect grades is the least of her concerns. On top of the daunting work load, she’s dodging her vain and obsessive ex-boyfriend, and working nearly full time to pay for tuition and the growing mountain of her father’s bills.
Griffin Hawthorne appears to have it all—a mansion, endless funds, and a future written in the stars. But rarely is anything quite what it seems. As a menacing defender for the HEAU Legends hockey team, he is no stranger to the pain and aggression of his position, striking fear in his opponents simply from the nickname he has rightfully earned—The Beast.
When a poor grade threatens Griffin’s path to the professional league, he must find a way to fix it, and fast. While Blair has no spare time to become a tutor, she begrudgingly agrees when Griffin offers too high of a price to pass up. But after he inadvertently costs Blair her job, he puts a new deal on the table, one that results in her moving into Hawthorne Manor until the end of the year.
But with each study session and late-night kitchen run-in, the boundaries they initially set begin to blur, and they question whether it's their deal keeping them together or their growing affection for one another. As everything starts falling into place, a threat emerges from the shadows—someone who will go to the grave before allowing Blair to be loved by The Beast.
