Romantasy twist on Beauty and the Beast—the first in a seductive new dark romance series set in an alternate Silicon Valley where information is power, and those who control the flow of information live like gods…

“Sexy and utterly engrossing!” —J.T. Geissinger, bestselling author of The Queens and Monsters series

Alana. While my name means beauty, beneath that surface is a depth I allow very few to see. I’m sole heir to Aquarius Social, a media giant about to succumb to an unseen enemy. My father’s solution is to marry me off to the son of a competing family. My reaction? Not a chance. Now I have just a week before the wedding to change my fate.

Who knew the unforeseen twist would be an assassination attempt on me and an unwanted rescue by Thorn Beathach, the head of the rival social media empire driving Aquarius under? The richest, most ruthless of them all, the Beast protects his realm with an iron rule: no one sees his face. When he shows himself to me, I know he’ll never let me go.

Thorn may think he can lock me in his enchanted castle forever, but I’m not the docile Beauty he expects. If the Beast wants to tie me up, I’m going to take pleasure from every minute of it . . .and we’ll just see who ends up shackled.

I don’t care for the spankings and other “Dark” behaviors. I am a big fan of this author but being an independent strong woman I didn’t care for the archaic male domination attitude toward the heroine.
However if you don’t mind that then you’ll love this book.

Not my favorite but well done

Finally a story I haven’t read or heard before this book was a rideeee! I devoured it. The chemistry between Thorn and Alana was delicious. Twists and turns and a plot that kept me guessing! I loved it 10/10 recommend!

Unbelievable, how many people liked this book, I found it so immature and very disrespectful, language was terrible and nasty sex encounters.

Really filthy language and disrespectful to woman.

Really enjoyed the amount of time spent on character build and plots. Loved that it was a quicker pace than my normal reads. I definitely gravitated to it over my other current reads. 100% would recommend!

Loved

Another fantastical universe like no other, very poignant. The sex is a little overly S&M for my taste but the characters are deep and creative. RZ is really good at fantasy and I love the excellent descriptive writing.
What’s next?!

RZ is the best!

So richly dark that never apologize. The antihero all would love to hate, but have such deepest feelings for the "confused" FMC makes me swoon for that depth of love.
WOW!! Steamy. This book has so many turns, my neck have whiplash trying to keep each character straight.

Can't wait for the next couple's maze into the GEM world of Grimm Bargains.
Would it be Scarlett, Ella, Rosalyn, or Justice HEA?

More Twists and Turns than a Rollercoaster

I was pleasantly surprised! I can’t wait for book two of this series. It has some intense sexual scenes but a good smut book if that’s what you’re looking for.

Modern romance with socials and LIGHT bdsm

I am a huge fan of anything that Rebecca Zanetti write but I was a little worried about this one. It is unlike any of her other books. A dark romance? Not my usual but I was interested. And wow was I drawn into this world quickly. The Characters are intriguing, the world building excellent, and the magic / science system was very original. This story kept surprising me. I highly recommend this book and I can’t wait to for the next one.

Great new series
