Monsters and Beauties #1
The Beast
What if the Beast never turned into the prince?
My father had just sold me off.
Bartered my body to erase his debt to the very devil himself.
A Beast of a man. Literally.
A creature whispered about amongst the villagers and feared by all.
He was a beastly visage at three times the size of a man, his monstrously huge body covered in fur. Sharp fangs and eyes that held an unearthly red glow. He had pawlike hands tipped with claws and horns that arched back from his inhuman face.
I was to live with him, to be his in every way—all ways—he saw fit.
I was to be his wife, and so I offered myself up as the proverbial sacrifice to the very devil himself.
I just didn’t expect to enjoy being with a monster as much as I did.

This felt like computer generated erotica and its only saving grace was that it was short.

When Beast is given an opportunity to make Belle his wife, he doesn’t give it a second thought.
Upon her arrival at the castle, she is taken absent by the opulence. Once she lets down her guard and settles, she begins to see Beast for more the his horns and claws.
With just enough plot to assuage any guilt over the uber sėxyÿ scenes, what follows is a retelling of the relationship between Beast and Belle.

I’m telling you� I love a good monster fucking lol. And jenika gave us that with this book.
My man Beast he was alil stalkerish when it came to belle he knew what he wanted and made sure his blushing bride would come to him even if he knew her father would gamble and need money. So he’s there to bribe and collect. That’s how Belle is now his wife and in his place.
The two have some tension since it’s been years since he was around someone this gorgeous and he did act like a beast but he did try to tame some of his actions. As for belle she was alittle scared but grew to like the beast and was horny for him lol and our monster could smell it. There is some drama with Gaston but lord that scene I never seen anything that dark 😂😂😂 giving a bloody heart to his woman.
The spice!!! I did wish there was more but we did get some delicious moments.. from primal play to breeding lord the chasing scene 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I can’t wait to see jenika come out with another monster smut.

I was looking for something quick, mindless and fun because my reading mood is off and this fit the bill.
Well, the fun part is questionable. This book was just straight up horny - not even hot horny - and ridiculous.
Some of the lines that were coming out of the mouth of the Beast? You just know that Jenika Snow was taking the piss with this retelling.

”You’re not what I expected,� I whispered.
“You are everything I envisioned.”�
This was a quick and smutty Beauty and the Beast retelling.
" "And here I was, an ugly monster covered in dark fur still getting the beauty."
The tension between them was at its paroxysm throughout the novella and that’s exactly what I was looking for. The chemistry between Belle and Beast was perfectly drawn from their very first encounter.😋
"I will always protect you. You are my life, and without you there is no me.�
I was surprised to actually like the romance. It was well developed and the shift between her fearing him to be genuinely intrigued by his personnage and finally defending him at the cost of her life... ugh so precious.🥹
"You know I’ll never be the valiant knight in shining armor protecting your honor. I’ll be the savage creature that tears apart anyone who so much as looks at you."

If you're like me and wish the Beast in The Beauty & The Beast never changed to human man this novella is for you. It is spicy, hot, dirty, and FILLED with so much kinky fun. The story follows the same storyline more or less as the classic fairytale you know and love but make it much more darker.
I loved how The Beast was just so utterly obsessed with Belle and concocted a way to be with her. Personally, I liked that Belle wasn't a meek fragile woman either in this story. I absolutely adored this story.
There have been a few novellas that I've read that I wish we could get a full length novel and this is one of them. I feel like there is so much Jenika could do with Beasts' character if she decides to expand. I can't wait for this new series of Monsters & Beauties to continue!

3,4 stars.
A different retelling of Beauty and the Beast.
The first of Jenika series:
I love retellings and the differences that the imagination of each author add to their story, but this one it kinda goes too much.
Belle father's is a gambler, so he sells her daughter to the Beast, so he can pay his debts to Gaston.
Some parts are really sweet and sexy.
The funny parts of the Beast being shy.
But it's too kinky and strange for me.
The Beast is really a monster, there's no spell or enchanted in his castle.
But he's also very gentle to Belle.
Of course, with that, some situations are ridiculous.
They're so absurd, that I can't give more than 3,4 stars, though my thing for retellings.
And some scenes are too vulgar, I really don't know if I'm reading the second book from the series.
All books, novellas that I don't rate with 4 stars, in my book, it ain't worth reading it...

I read this expecting all spice, no plot and I got � no plot, spice towards the end that sadly made me cringe too much to even enjoy it.
The spice didn’t hit until well over 50% after constant teasing and build up, was excellently detailed on some things but woefully vague on others, and used the phrases “pu$sy hole� and “pu$sy cream� so much it took me right out of the scene. I felt positively bored for most of the book (along with frustrated at the repetitive dialogue and indecision between modern slang and historical terminology). I kept going for the spice knowing the kink list was extensive and hoping it would serve hot fun at least and it just � did not hit like it should have. I ignored everything else that would usually make me DNF because the main selling point was sex, so that was the only thing I had expectations for but it did not deliver for me.

Looking for a new monster erotica? You got it.
This is a beauty & the beast retelling where the beast STAYS the beast. No princes here.

This is short but packed full of steam and hella kinks. Like flat out, all the alpha monster kinks: breeding, spit, primal play, and more.
Also…the appendage is as long as her forearm and covered in fur

A sm€xy obsessed beast? yes please
And because this is Jenika Snow, you know she came with all the sm^tt goodness and the d!rty talk a girl could ever want. Me� I’m that girl. Because� hoooole sh!zn!t 🥵🥵🥵. Side note. The audiobook is duet narration 😉
Tale as old as time� Belle gets sold to The Beast to help her father settle his debt. This time, his life’s on the line, so of course she’s forced to help him. She signed the contract and married Beast� and then she goes to meet him 👀
Beast has been watching Bella for a while now; he knows her routines, her likes, her dislikes, and he wants her. But he knows he has to take it easy on her; he IS a beast 😅😬 and she’s just a curvy, luscious virgin�
Let the tension begin 👀
What I liked/loved:
—the 🔥🔥🔥. Oh LAWD. It takes a “while� for it to form, but dear gawd, everything leading up to it is soooo hooooot🥵. He has to mold her to be able to take him� prepare her� and oh does he ever 💦😅. Plus, he has a “textured� tongue. Yeah. Hot 😉
—his tail 👀. He uses it to his advantage in ALLLL ways 😅🔥. Belle’s a lucky girl 😉 (side note- his tail is thinner than his� you know� so it helps to� ahem� prepare things)
—his dirty talk. I think I will always have this as its own separate bullet, cause Beast does not come to play. He’s a beast inside and outside the bedroom. All the puns intended 😉
—the protectiveness. Sigh. He’s over the moon for Belle, and she is too 👀. They’re protective of each other ❤️🥰
—lots and lots of fluids. I didn’t know how to feel about this, but� um� yeah. It didn’t bother me. He IS a beast. I expect no less 🤷🏻♀�
—Br€€ding. I love it in my books 💁🏻♀�
—the connection. It might seem like it’s all about the smexxxx, but there’s a connection early on. I love how Jenika Snow builds it, even when it seems like it’s just physical at first. Yes. Belle IS attracted to Beast 👀and then it goes beyond the physical
What I wanted more of:
—a longer epilogue 😫and set many years into the future. It was super 🔥🥵💦🤤😉 but also 🥹🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️. The way he rubs her belly 🥹 sigh. Loved it
—I wish it was longer 😏
Overall, I really enjoyed it ❤️ so much so that I bought the audiobook so I could read it again 😉

La bestia jamás volvió a ser un príncipe, Bella no es la chica inocente del pueblo, él está obsesionado con ella y no se detendrá hasta tenerla en sus garras y el dentro de ella.
¿Qué carajo leí? JAJAJA
Okay veamos, esto es un Monster � Romance? No sé cuál sea el trope, pero si, es demasiado demasiado SPICY, no sé si es porque no estoy acostumbrada a este tipo de libros pero se me hizo demasiado TURBIO y aun así me gusto.
No estoy enferma y obviamente todo lo que hay en este libro está mal incluyendo la redacción pero si hablamos por el punto del SPICY que es lo que estoy calificando aquí realmente es mucho en extremo. Es súper rápido de leer pues casi son puros diálogos, y la trama aparte que ya la conocemos es muy básica, no tienes problema en integrarte a la historia, pero aja, DEMASIADO TURBIO Y NO LO DEJARÉ DE DECIR.

3.5 - 4 stars!
O Jenika...thank you for giving us this glorious monster smut. This was a retelling of The Beauty and the Beast and it was a deliciously dirty and short read.
The Beast manipulated Belle's father into giving her to him as his wife because he has a gambling addiction and despite being afraid at first, Belle warmed to the Beast quickly. She saw beneath the scary exterior to the gooey center that wanted to treat her like the queen she is.
This was full of kinky primal play and scenting and much more and I can't wait to see what's next in this world. There was a little action and a little suspense and a whole lot of smut. So while not super thought provoking or anything, if you're into short and filthy romances with an inhuman hero and a fun heroine, give it a try!
“Run, Belle,� he growled. “Run as fast as you can, because when I catch you—and I will—I am going to fuck you so hard there will be no doubt who you belong to.�

Hahahaha, the writing is so laughably bad!!!
Reminds me of what a 12 year old version of myself would have written, except with smut included.
Skip this book and author if you have ANY literary taste. This could just as well have been published online on literotica or something, hahahahahaha!

I love the story of Beauty and the beast it’s actually my favourite fairy tale and I love a good retelling. I’ll admit though I’ve always been rather dismayed when the beast transformed back into a puny human prince at the end so disappointing. But what if that wasn’t the case what if the beast was just a beast and stayed one.
“What if the beast never turned into the Prince�
Ooh yes yes!!� I’m so in how could I not be with that endorsement. What we have here is that popular fable reimagined but with lots of explicit language and a much more thrilling and satisfying outcome than the bland original.
So here Beast engineers it so he can take possession of his obsession Belle. Acquiring her from her father's care after he loses at cards Belle is then promised in marriage to the beast. In return for clearing her father's debts. Belles's freedom is bartered away.
The essential bones of the story feel very familiar there’s are some variations of course but you will definitely recognise what your reading. But unlike the original, this is well filthy the beast definitely wants to devour and debauch Belle in every possible way he can so be prepared for some real monster loving which was graphic and explicit intense and rough involving knots and so much mess my god there was so much fluid involved here and I bloody loved it. It’s like my favourite story but on actual steroids.
Beast and Belles's bond was so primal and animalistic but it was also equally sweet and tender. It’s of novella length but still, a decent size and the writing was good. This is total dirty monster loving how it should be done and I’m never going to be able to experience the original now without imagining and wanting more. Probably the dirtiest beauty and the beast rehash that I’ve experienced to date and I’ve read a few.

And because this is Jenika Snow, you know she came with all the sm^tt goodness and the d!rty talk a girl could ever want. Me� I’m that girl. Because� hoooole sh!zn!t 🥵🥵🥵. Side note. The audiobook is duet narration 😉
Tale as old as time� Belle gets sold to The Beast to help her father settle his debt. This time, his life’s on the line, so of course she’s forced to help him. She signed the contract and married Beast� and then she goes to meet him 👀
Beast has been watching Bella for a while now; he knows her routines, her likes, her dislikes, and he wants her. But he knows he has to take it easy on her; he IS a beast 😅😬 and she’s just a curvy, luscious virgin�
Let the tension begin 👀
What I liked/loved:
—the 🔥🔥🔥. Oh LAWD. It takes a “while� for it to form, but dear gawd, everything leading up to it is soooo hooooot🥵. He has to mold her to be able to take him� prepare her� and oh does he ever 💦😅. Plus, he has a “textured� tongue. Yeah. Hot 😉
—his tail 👀. He uses it to his advantage in ALLLL ways 😅🔥. Belle’s a lucky girl 😉 (side note- his tail is thinner than his� you know� so it helps to� ahem� prepare things)
—his dirty talk. I think I will always have this as its own separate bullet, cause Beast does not come to play. He’s a beast inside and outside the bedroom. All the puns intended 😉
—the protectiveness. Sigh. He’s over the moon for Belle, and she is too 👀. They’re protective of each other ❤️🥰
—lots and lots of fluids. I didn’t know how to feel about this, but� um� yeah. It didn’t bother me. He IS a beast. I expect no less 🤷🏻♀�
—Br€€ding. I love it in my books 💁🏻♀�
—the connection. It might seem like it’s all about the smexxxx, but there’s a connection early on. I love how Jenika Snow builds it, even when it seems like it’s just physical at first. Yes. Belle IS attracted to Beast 👀and then it goes beyond the physical
What I wanted more of:
—a longer epilogue 😫and set many years into the future. It was super 🔥🥵💦🤤😉 but also 🥹🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️. The way he rubs her belly 🥹 sigh. Loved it
—I wish it was longer 😏
Overall, I really enjoyed it ❤️ so much so that I bought the audiobook so I could read it again 😉

Holy hot as hell smutty monster goodness! The Beast damn near melted my kindle (in addition to my panties)- NEW KINK UNLOCKED! NEW KINK UNCLOCKED! ANOTHER KINK UNLOCKED!
Seriously, this tasty little bite was just delicious. An loosely inspired, spicey rendition of my favorite childhood fairytale, Beauty and the Beast. Only in this fairy tale Belle's father Maurice is less lovable fool whose mistakes land Belle in trouble but instead he's a selfish gambler who willing sells his daughter to the scary best to settle his debt.
Only, good for Belle AND good for us, Beast has been long-time lusting for the beautiful Belle and him and his wiley tail are about to unleash some kinky fuckery all over this story. RAWWWWR indeed. Sign me up for a monster kidnapping, please.
I can't wait for more of this series. Jenika writes smutty magic like no one else. Can't wait for her to sprinkle more of her spicey sexy fairy dust all over some monster stories. I didn't know monster romance was my thing, but in case you missed it- NEW KINK UNLOCKED.
More please!

What the Beast wants he gets and he has his fangs set on the sweet, voluptuous Belle.
He sees a way to make her his and doesn't stop until that is set in stone. Who knew that she could be bought and by doing so he would be able to show her just how well he could make her feel, over and over and over again.
Oh boy did he! I don't read much PNR so it's always a bit of a shock and awe moment when reading some of the things inside the pages, especially when it comes to body parts and just how deeply they can be used. Freaking hot! I found myself peering at my arm a time or two. Get it, Belle!
This was a quick read filled with animalistic sexual tension that dripped from the book. It didn't fill over the top. Felt just right. Had me falling for the Beast.

*ALC received from Audibly Addicted in exchange for my honest review. *
Jenika Snow writes some of the best monsters/beasts that I have ever read. When I read this book back in June it was everything, I was hoping for but this time baby with that narration!! It moved my rating up from a four star to a five-star read.
Stella Hunter and J.F. Harding gave me The Beauty and the Beast performance I have been dying to hear. Stella is fabulous always and hot, yeah that too. J.F. Harding though outdid himself with those growls and the "darlings" my heart was swooning, and other parts were something else entirely.
With the writing of Jenika and the narration with this powerful duet your ears will be in audio heaven, trust me! Just maybe, don't listen at work or you know in public.
**original review 06/19/2022**
Jenika Snow gave me exactly what I wanted with The Beast!!
Take The Beauty and the Beast fairytale you already love and add in some serious monster smut with a very possessive beast. And you are left with a story so toe curling good that you will be aching for more.
Really hoping that this isn't the last book we see in the Monsters and Beauties series because I have some very interesting scenarios playing out in my head for other fairytales, she could turn a bit filthy.

Buddy read with Ava!
This... is not the book I'd recommend to the casual retelling fan or someone who has never read a monster romance... but if you love monster romances, love Beauty and the Beast Retellings, love a ton of steam, and don't care about character building... then this is for you.

Holy Provincial Town in France, this is the Beauty and the Beast retelling that I never knew I needed!!! The Beast actually stays the beast in this one, and I am all about it! *fans self
When The Beast sees Belle in town, he knows that he will stop at nothing to make her his. So when he finds out that her father, Maurice, has a terrible gambling addiction, he goes right to Gaston and offers to pay Maurice’s debts, with the stipulation that Belle must become his wife.
When Belle gets to the castle after signing the marriage contract, complete with the rule that Belle will give Beast heirs, she’s very hesitant to have anything to do with him. Especially when she sees his atrocious table manners. Yuck.
Buuuuut he grows on her, and after Gaston tries to ambush Beast, with the help of Maurice, Beast takes his revenge, and chases Belle into the woods to have his way with her. Fully consensual of course. There are certain spicy scenes that only the queen of hot novellas can write, and I was here for it!! Plus, it’s really sweet to see such a “horrifying monster� find sweet and beautiful love!

Pretty quick retelling of beauty and the beast except in this one the beast is not a human stuck in a monster form or cursed. He is literally a beast.
It's a novella so things have to move fast and not a lot of backstory concerning the beast, how he came to be, if there are more like him etc.
We know he has been obsessed with Belle for a while and stalks her. Has wanted to make her his wife and breed her but feared she would run away when she saw him as does everyone so he comes up with a brilliant plan, since her father is a gambler and owes a shit ton of money, he would pay it off and have her be the collateral.
She at first fears him and finds him hideous but slowly (or rather quickly) realizes he is not a ''beast' and treats her kindle and she wants him.
These two get their HEA but we do not get a scene of them far into the future with kids etc. I do wonder if he is immortal or mortal? Will he age the same as her? There were a few vital bits of info missing but this book was not made to be dissected lol
