Summary:
Just like the classic “Beauty as well as the Beast,” this steampunk love features an unlikely love story.
The Lord of Blackwell Manor, Miles, is plagued by a family group curse that changes him into a shape-shifting wolf on a monthly basis during the full moon.
Lucy, a smart, attractive, and well-respected botanist, travels to Blackwell Manor to take care of her sick cousin, Kate, who’s married to Mls’ younger brother. For Lucy, the trip is certainly a welcome rest from her function and recent finding of a discovery about Beauty and the Clockwork Beast serum that could get rid of the scourge of vampires from London. But Lucy finds a lot more than she bargained for when she arrives at the Manor.
Miles, who’s brash and inhospitable, does not take kindly to visitors. He is still unsettled by the mystical loss of life of his newlywed wife. And then there’s Marie, Miles’ sister, who was attacked and murdered simply weeks earlier. Kilometers is horrified to believe that he could be to blame for the deaths. And who is the ghost that haunt the halls?
Lucy is convinced the loss of life of Miles’s wife and sister-as well as her cousin’s mysterious illness-are tied jointly, but how?
Female Charlesworth has her attention about inheriting Blackwell Manor for her family. Could her daughter, Candice, or her kid, Arthur, have had a hand in the mysterious fatalities? The clues make a vampire believe highly likely.
During her investigation, Lucy finds herself caring deeply for Miles, but he battles to keep his distance in order to safeguard Lucy from his family’s secret. And, yet, he feels attracted to the woman who’s able to appear at night fearsome-looking scar which has marred his good looking face. With no other option, Kilometers and Lucy must work together if they’re to find the response to the mysteries on the manor.
But that isn’t all Lucy really wants to solve. There’s a deeper mystery behind Mls. Can she resolve that too? Ultimately, she must decide if she can like the man-beast and all.”Allen’s imagining of ‘Beauty and the Beast’ as a supernatural period murder mystery is delightful at every convert.”-Publishers Regular (starred review)
