Personal chef to reclusive artist Todd Best isn't exactly her dream gig but it pays the bills while she figures out her life - and her novel. Todd just wants to be left alone with his memories and his guilt. He's not painting anymore. He's not anything anymore.</p><p></p><p>Then Jolie shows up in his kitchen talking too much feeding him too well and making him feel things he buried a long time ago.</p><p></p><p>He's the beast who lost everything. She's the beauty who won't stop showing up with lunch.</p><p></p><p>And Jonathan - that impossibly smug little kitten with the glowing halo - seems entirely too pleased with how this is all going.</p><p></p><p><em>Beauty and The Best is a warm witty grumpy/sunshine romance about two people who needed saving and were too stubborn to ask - and one very scheming angel in disguise.</em></p><p> </p><p class=ql-align-center>*** </p><p>Praise for Judi Fennell's stories: </p><p>Fun and flirty.
