A tale as old as time...with a twist!

Rose had it all until melanoma left her scarred at the ripe age of 18. Now, she’s Sterling's most infamous recluse, and no one knows why except for her family.

Adam spends his summers working at the local tourist trap to help his mom make ends meet. So when his neighbor offers to pay him enough to cover rent for a month if he breaks into Rose Beaumont's house, he jumps at the opportunity.

This chance encounter between two teens from opposite sides of the beach soon transforms into something more. But just when things start heating up, secrets that can destroy everything threaten to surface.

Beauty and the Beach is a genderbent retelling of Beauty and the Beast. It is a novella in the Boys of Summer series, a collaboration between several YA authors. They are all stand-alone stories that take place in the same fictional town. Escape to Sterling Beach today!

This is a sweet and innocent book about a girl who finds herself in a situation that makes her become a recluse and a boy she knows from school who eventually helps her back out into the world. It was some angst but shows how it pays to be honest and forthright with others.

The narration was good, there was some background noise that was distracting a few times but Megan is a new narrator for me and I will definitely listen to her again.

Definitely a great book for anyone who likes YA coming to age books.

Wonderful YA book

This is a cute, quick story. A reverse of Beauty and the Beast...this time the girl is the scarred one and the boy is a hardworking, caring soul. Their meeting was unconventional but loved how they connected. It is a novella so a quick read-listen.

I cannot say enough good words about Kayla Tirrell and her ability to write young adult romance novels. While the plot points of the story are based on Beauty and the Beast, Tirrell takes those and turns them into a story all her own. I knew after the first chapter what was going to happen, but with Tirrell's writing style, I was sucked into the story and I wanted to sit back and listen with enjoyment to how things unfolded. It is a sweet tale of girl who was popular in high school, but had to have surgery due to cancer, changing her looks forever. But the boy from the other side of town who didn't run in her circle sees the new person she has become after the surgery and sees all of her beauty. It is a wonderful story of not just looking at people on the surface, but looking at the beauty they have within. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a sweet summer romance.

What a fantastic story! Adam is not the typical surfer recent high school graduate. It's just him and his mom and he takes being the man of the house very seriously. He works to help his mom pay the bills and money is tight. so tight that he accepts an immoral job from a jealous neighbor. Here's where he meets the popular girl, the queen of the school, Rose.

Rose shows us how heavily our society leans on beauty. What it does to impressionable young ladies that are struggling with their own body image. Beauty and the Beach gives us a great lesson to take to heart. It also reminds us to look past the visual and to feel with your heart.

The narrator did a good job. Megan Meyer handled a dual POV story greatly. Personally I prefer a male and female narrating a dual book but this wasn't the case here. However, Miss Meyer didn't try to give us a Male's voice. She slightly changed her voices to show differences between the two. I much prefer how she did the narration than a narrator trying, badly, to give us a male and female voice. So this is a super quick listen, just at 2 hours. I was really impressed with how well built and complete the story was. Kayla Tirrell did a fabulous job giving is enough information and background on the characters to care for them. This is a nice wholesome read, light romance. It'd be a perfect by the pool or beach listen as it's light and sweet. It'll make your heart feel happy.

Completely sweet!!
