The Beast of Berrybrook — Ash Gray

Astrid is a rebellious and headstrong young princess living in a castle over the little village of Berrybrook. After learning that she is expected to marry a prince in an arranged marriage, she runs away from the castle and into the wood, where she is saved by the dreaded Beast of Berrybrook. While hiding from her father's hounds, the princess falls in love with the beast, only to discover that she isn't a beast at all, but a woman cursed to change at night into a monster! Don't miss the first installment of this steamy lesbian romance series!--Astrid screwed her face up as she always screwed up her face when she wanted her way. I said will not marry Prince Stevvin of Andernas! she shouted, her cheeks reddening. Astrid, who had always been able to wind her father around her little finger, couldn't believe it when King Rory scowled in return. He was a big man and bulging with muscles, and when he rose slowly from his chair, it had the effect of casting a terrible gloom over the room, so that the nearby servants cowered. Astrid, however, was not to be cowed and glared up at her towering father. You will do as I tell you, girl, said the king, blue eyes narrowing, or I shall throw you in the street and replace you with one of your more obedient half-sisters! Astrid's mouth fell open.  The king pointed a ringed index finger at the window, indicating the village of Berrybrook below. Do you have any idea how many bastard sisters you have out there? Hmm? All little blonde featherheads just like you! I could replace you, he snapped his big fingers, like that! And no one would be the wiser!
