What if Beauty's villainous suitor didn't die at the end? And what if his redemption came at the hands of a woman who had escaped her tower years earlier?
When Garret wakes to find he's lost the girl to a beast and now brandishes the title of villain, he runs. Three years later, his running leads him to Eloise, the older widow who speaks her mind and challenges his chauvinistic tendencies. Garret finds the plucky woman aggravating, but he's curious to discover what lies beneath the scars that mar her features and the gray hair that looks out of place on her.
As the lies he tells to hide his past continue to build, Garret will discover Eloise holds secrets of her own that are far deadlier. With each revelation, he sheds his villainous ways but refuses to share his secrets until he can no longer deny how interwoven they are with Eloise's past.
Petals and lies make up the path Garret must traverse to claim his mistakes and the love of a woman running from a tower that shadows her past and future.
Of Petals and Lies is a Beauty and the Beast villain-inspired retelling with a splash of Rapunzel. T/W can be found in the front of the book and on my website.
