BOOKWORM TBR: Bookworm and the Beast by Tru Taylor
I am an absolute sucker for Beauty and the Beast re-tellings. There is something about this trope of a grump with a chip on his shoulder (see what I did there?) being thrown together by fate with a ray of sunshine in the form of a bibliophile.
Tru Taylor brings her own twist to the classic tale in the first book of her Eastport Bay Billionaire series. The Bookworm and the Beast comes out today, and if you're a Beauty and the Beast fan like me, one-click the book now, just like I did.

I’ve been sent into the lair of the beast....
It should be a dream assignment—leave my boring day-to-day routine and travel to a seaside mansion to interview superstar author Jack R. R. Bestia. Who wouldn’t want that?
Me, that’s who.
He has a reputation for being reclusive and temperamental, but that’s not why I’m leery of the assignment. It’s because the first (and last) time I met Jack… well, let’s just say I didn’t make a good impression.
When I get to the mansion—which is more like a secluded castle—things don’t go much better. I’m sure he’s going to throw me out entirely. The only way I manage to squeak in is by signing a massive non-disclosure agreement. And I soon figure out why.
Jack has a secret—and it’s a big one.
Now that iron-clad contract I signed means I have to stay here until his long-overdue book is finished—and he’s not going to make it easy.
Jack acts every bit as beastly as the tabloids claimed, and I feel like a fairytale princess trapped in his tower. But every once in a while I get a glimpse of the charming (not to mention super sexy) man beneath the growly exterior and I wonder... could this beast be tamed?
Bookworm and the Beast is a full-length hot romantic comedy retelling of Beauty and the Beast. It's a standalone enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, slow burn romance with no cheating or cliffhangers but plenty of humor and heart.
