| book description |

Felicia Grossman continues the ""revolutionary storytelling"" of the Once Upon the East End series with an enchanting retelling of Beauty and the Beast set in Regency London's Jewish community, in which a single father finds himself entranced by the same woman he once rejected (Entertainment Weekly​). Despite an unhappy first marriage, Roger Berab always took pride in being a good father. When his daughter's reckless behavior, however, damages both their neighbor and her home, he's forced to reconsider. To pay reparations, he agrees to provide lodgings until the repairs are complete. Unfortunately for Roger, the victim is the same woman with whom he foolishly once shared a night of passion . . . and then scorned for her lack of status. With her sharp tongue and and disdain for fashion, Rebecca Adler is not exactly a community darling. What she does have, however, are her skills at midwifery. That is, until she injures herself saving Roger Berab's daughter. With her profession at a halt and her haven in disrepair, she has no choice but to accept Roger's offer of shelter . . . but never again will she believe a man of substance lies beyond his pretty face. Trapped in the same house, neither Rebecca nor Roger can avoid each other--or the passion still burning between them. But their time together has a deadline, and Rebecca no longer trusts Roger: can he convince her his feelings are true? Or is their tale doomed before it's truly started?
