In the tumultuous era of Napoleon's reign, where power shifts like the winds of war, a captivating tale emerges, weaving the threads of beauty and the beastly struggles of humanity. Behind the political intrigue and societal upheaval, a fascinating attraction forms between two unlikely souls.

Amidst the chaos, a young man of uncommon grace and courage finds himself entangled with a strange secret, held by a local nobleman to the south of Paris. It is here that he discovers what kind of man he truly is, and just who his heart will long for.

Beatrice, a woman in every sense of the word, except she was born to look nothing like a human from the very start of her existence. Shunned away inside the castle by her father, she begins to reach out to the young aristocrat, hoping that he might be able to whisk her away from this life hiding in the shadows.

Adam, an aristocrat with a heart of gold, and a measure of understanding, unfounded in royalty, has taken a liking to the mysterious beast, and slowly this interest will transform into a passionate desire for something that would be shunned by the entire world.

In a world where the dark forces of an intolerant, Catholic Church, bent on destroying anything that they deem pure evil, as well as the psychopathic nature of Adam’s reluctant friend, a woman who wants nothing more than to dominate everything and destroy those who stand in her way, this unnatural couple will have to decide if their romance is worth the risk of death.
