A good thing too because once Rose meets Drago she no longer cares about being respectable. <P>But the only illusion in Drago's act is that his magic is smoke and mirrors. Every word of power he speaks is as real as Rose before him in thrall to his lust and adoration. Drago knows about Rose's curse that she will die on her next birthday.

If she can trust him perhaps he can save her too. . .<P><B>Praise for Beauty and the Wolf</B><P>Dynamic and sensual paranormal readers will gobble up this sexy read. --Donna Grant <I>New York Times </I>bestselling author of <I>Midnight's Warrior</I><P><I>Beauty and the Wolf </I>is a deliciously dark retelling of the classic tale that will make you fall in love all over again. --Erin Quinn author of <I>The Five Deaths of Roxanne Love</I>
