Publisher's summary

Every curse must have an end.

Belinda Lambton knows a curse when she sees one. She also knows the wisdom of agreeing with a powerful enchantress. So when she inadvertently gets mixed up with a cursed Beast and his enchantress, she finds herself tasked with the role of Curse Breaker. That’s not an easy position, for Beast has reasons of his own to keep his curse. There’s also someone else determined to break it by whatever means possible and claim Beast for herself, and she doesn’t take competition well.

With wit, clean romance, and a touch of danger, Midnight for a Curse is a retelling of the beloved Beauty and the Beast tale.

Good one!

I love retelling of classic stories, Midnight for a Curse is a Beauty and the Beast retelling. the author did a great job taking some classic detail from the fairytale, the cursed beast and a rose losing petals, and created her only story of trickery and intrigue. Belinda has her own agenda in trying to help break the beast’s curse.

A cute Beauty and the Beast retelling

Midnight for a Curse is a cute Beauty and the Beast retelling with some twists. This fairy tale is fun and suitable for all ages- it would make a terrific choice for a family road trip.

The narrator suits the book and does a nice job bringing it to life.

I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Absolutely wonderful

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I have to admit, I'm not normally a fan of beauty and the beast stories, but this one did an excellent job of using it in a new way. I found the characters likeable and interesting and I loved watching them fall in love and see deeper into their thoughts and motivations. Honestly the only thing I didn't like was that there wasn't more to the story. I'd like to get to know the side characters more and see more the world. But I guess I'll get that when I read the next book!

The best version of the Beast.

Not only does this Beast love to read he was actually cursed for getting angry he was interrupted while reading. A perfectly justified reason to be angry, in my opinion.

I really love how this Beast is such a decent person dispute putting on airs of rudeness. He does have some flaws to work out, and his arc is beautifully written.

Belinda, our beauty, is also an amazing character, she is very much a protagonist, choosing to act in this story, rather then let it sweep her along.

Katherine Anderson narrates splendidly, giving each character a unique sound. It was so entertaining hearing the witty banter between Beast and Belinda brought to life.

This highly original retelling is a must for anyone who loves Beauty and the Beast.

So much fun

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

This was a beautiful variation of beauty and the beast. E. J. Kitchens breathe a new kind of life into a wonderful fairy tale. I enjoyed getting the know the characters in the book. And to find out a surprising end.
If you like fun adventures with magic this is the book for you.

My favorite Beauty and the Beast retelling!

This story is Amazing! It is true to the original in many regards and yet many details are turned on their heads in a most delightful way! The whole story is infused with humor and consistently entertains. The narration was also very good!
