Customer Reviews

Very Good

I enjoyed Roses very much. It is a new twist to the story of Beauty and the Beast. Isabel is a teenager who wants nothing to do with love or boys. All she needs is a job so she can save the money she needs for a trip to Paris. She works for a man who is so scarred that he can almost be called a monster. Isabel doesnt think she will learn anything new, and she doesent believe in fairy tales until it happened to her.
