Belle has only one goal in life—kill the beast that killed her father. Belle lives a sheltered life until her father is killed by the creatures hiding in the neighboring forest. Struck by pain, she wants revenge, and the only way to achieve it is to join the hunters. However, the hunters are an elite squad that doesn’t allow women to enlist. Using their captain’s love interest in her, Belle agrees to let him court her if he trains her to be the first huntress of their kingdom. Alpha Drake and his pack have been hiding in the Black Forest to protect a powerful relic. They are shapeshifters and guardians, yet the humans of the neighboring kingdom believe they are nothing more than beasts who prey on the humans and kill for sport. Two worlds collide when Belle’s first mission goes terribly wrong. Not only she’s captured by the beast she’s hunting, but she’s also turned into one of them. When the werewolves’ leader refuses to let her leave, Belle needs to gather all her courage and wits to defy him and return to her mother and the safety of her kingdom. Too bad the sexy alpha plans on making Belle his Luna. Will she be able to resist him? Journey into the steampunk world of magic, humans and shifters, love and duty, and a tale as old as time with a twist that will leave you craving for more. Hunting the Beast is a standalone novel inside the Fairy Tales with a Bite Universe. If you love a feisty heroine and a swoon-worthy werewolf alpha, then this fairy tale retelling of the Beauty and the Beast won’t disappoint you.
