More About This Book

Overview

"I am not beautiful..." Knife's entire existence has been as twisted as his flesh and his face. The only thing beautiful in his life is his sister. When Gwennie is obliged to turn a suitor down because she fears to leave her brother to the brutality of their village, Knife is desperate for anything to ensure her happiness. Her suitor's cousin offers him a way out, but it won't be easy. Aerie-Smith has been cursed to walk upright in the form of a beast, and his beloved village suffers from the same spell. Aerie-Smith offers Gwen a trousseau and some hope, if only Knife will keep him company on his island for the span of a year and perform one "regrettable task" at year's end. Knife is unprepared for the form the island's curse takes on his own misshapen body. In one moment of magic, he is given the body of his dreams--and he discovers that where flesh meets spirit and appearance meet reality, sometimes the only place to find truth is in the darkness of a lover's arms.

    Really Great Book

    One of the best books I have read in a while. Amy Lane is my favorite author. Her characters are so real and you identify with them easily. This book made me cry...in a good way.

    3.5 stars - Really beautiful story about not beautiful people for a change. This had a beauty-and-the-beast theme to it but I like that it had a realistic happily ever after, as opposed to the Disney happily ever after.
