This story was like a modern day fairytale where the Prince get s to marry the commoner except that had already happened and a tragedy was the result. Ten years later a young woman comes into contact with the reclusive Prince and in doing so awakens him from his self imposed prison to a world very different from the world he once knew. Adam was devastated when his wife was killed in a accident that left him scared and broken from a love lost forever. Then Annabelle happened and his world once again knew light and promise. This book was a true romance that heal the pain of the past from both Annabelle and Adam, perfect in sincerity, honest in their love with strength to overcome the lies and deceptions that came before it.

Beast Daddy is about two people damaged and haunted by their past. They meet when Annabelle is in Adam’s home stealing from him and he catches her, changing their lives forever. This is a beautiful and well written story and a kind of Beauty and the Beast fairytale with a few unexpected twists. Loved Adam and Annabelle together and how great they were for each other.
I enjoyed reading this modernized version of Beauty and the Beast. It touched on children in Foster Care, on how a person can hold onto love for years after their partner has passed away, on how sometimes people are connected in ways that they couldn’t even imagine. It was enriching on how Annabelle was able to mature from a self-serving teenager to a woman caring more for someone else above herself. It was enjoyable to see the Beast, Adam, come out of his self-imposed shell, to be able to let the past be the past and to live for the future, even caring for his estranged family.
Annabelle was a teenager about to reach her ‘expiration date’ for being released from foster care and didn’t have any plans. The plans that her and her friend had was to rob the local convenience store. That got stopped before they walked into the store. They both ran into the woods in different directions. Annabelle got lost and when she came out, she found an abandoned mansion. When she looked in the windows, she saw some things that if she stole them, she could sell them and get enough money to leave town. When she went back, she stole some jewelry. When she went to pick up a gold pocket watch, a beast of a man ran out and said she could take anything she wants, but not the pocket watch. She realized that the jewelry she stole could get her in big trouble and it isn’t right to steal. She brought the jewelry back and apologized to the beast. They spoke and it started up a friendship.
Adam has put himself in exile for the past 10 years since his wife died in an accident. He can’t get over her loss and has let himself go. His hair is long and unkempt and his beard is the same. He stopped trying to get the knots out years ago. He watched the girl break in and go through his house and steal his great-grandmother’s jewelry. He didn’t care, but the girl intrigued him. When she returned the jewelry, he asked her to come back the next day and they could have tea and talk. He ended up buying her a car so she could come back and then hired her so she could stay in foster care as she wanted. It also gave them a chance to get to know each other. As they became friends, he was able to start to let go of his past. When they became even closer, he had to tell her his secret.

If you like fairy tales such as Beauty and the Beast you are sure to like this one even if it’s not quite the same. This story is about Adam and Annabelle. Adam is lost soul as the love of his life die too young and believes he should never love again that is until he meets Annabelle. Annabelle is lost herself but not by love of a man but one of a family being in foster care is not what anyone envisions and she had to deal with it. This story has a fairy tale ending which you will all love, but it is with some drama and a lot of steamy action.

This is about Anabelle and the beast she finds in the woods. Adam has been holed up in the woods for the last ten years grieving the death of his wife. Anabelle is about ready to turn 18 and leave the foster system. She thinks the house she found in the woods is empty and she’s going to rob the place to find money to get out of Los Angeles and start a better life somewhere else. Adam happens to see Anabelle and decides that he likes what he sees. He catches her in the act of stealing and when she finds out how much the ring is worth when she tries to pawn it she freaks out. She returns it to the rightful owner. I love the interaction between Anabelle and Adam. The way they got to learn about each other. This story works up as Beauty and the Beast. I hope you decide to read this as it definitely will make you laugh, cry and realize that love brings all things together.

A slow burn romance read, this retelling of beauty and the beast had more of a sweet tone than I expected that I loved! A little bit of naughty and a whole lot of sweetness made this an enjoyable read that doesn’t disappoint. Another great addition to this genre that brings that heat level I look forward to.

This is a great story that once I started it I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between them is off the charts hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.
Annabelle started off as a young thief in this retelling of the Beauty and the Beast fairytale romance. Her intent to rob the mansion that Adam was living as a recluse was an odd start to this very adult version of a contemporary retelling of this favorite fairytale.
Both characters were damaged and tormented by their history and past, but sweetly (and steamily) find their way to healing with each other. I liked that the plot was a bit complex with Adam and his royal heritage. It was a relief that his family were quite likeable and normal. I appreciated the lack of villainous intent that could have marred this sweet but totally graphic romance.

This was Book Six in the “Once Upon a Daddy” series and this modern day fairy tale kept me totally enthralled as I turned the pages of this well written storyline and the characters were so well detailed that I couldn’t put this book down until I finished reading the very last page!
This is an intriguing take of Beauty and The Beast with Adam and Annabelle. The story lures you in and holds you hostage. The characters makes this story come alive giving it the adult version of a childhood favorite fairytale.
