Series ✦ Penny’s Take
Kingdom of Beauty
Deborah Grace White · 2021
70/100
👍 Worth It
Felicity's relentless cheerfulness doing the work that usually falls to the beast's gradual change is a genuinely fresh angle on a familiar story, and it makes for a charming series opener. The stakes are light and the romance stays sweet, which is exactly what this audience wants — just do not come in expecting surprises in the plot architecture. A solid entry point for clean fairy-tale romance readers.
