Sofie Vincent is some piece of work. She’s a mean one. A nasty. Someone who doesn’t play nice because she frankly doesn’t care if you like her or not. She could blow your life apart if you crossed her, and quite often did. Very few braved her beastly exterior.

She liked it that way.

To her annoyance, this lovely routine was thwarted the minute a handsome hospice nurse named Fletcher Sullivan popped up on her doorstep with one goal in mind: reunite Sofie with her estranged mother before it was too late.

Rose Thibodeau wasn’t just Sofie’s mother, she was a world-renowned author of the bestselling and beloved "Pudgie" series of books, all inspired by Sofie’s childhood mishaps and failures. These were published far and wide for the whole world to see. For that, Sofie decided, her mother can never be forgiven.

However, Fletcher is as determined as she is, as headstrong as she is, and refuses to go away no matter what she does. Can this unusual, kind, beautiful man transform beastly Sofie back into a human again before it’s too late? Or will the Rose wilt and seal her bitter curse forever?

Be Ginger’s guest as she twists this tale as old as time around to answer a question we're rarely asked: can a beautiful man fall in love with a beastly woman, particularly one our society deems the most unlovable? In true Ginger Voight fashion, she weaves an emotional tale of love, regret, bitterness and redemption, with characters that will stay with you long after you turned the last page.
