He sees a beast, but she sees the beauty within.With severe burn scars to over half his body, billionaire, Sebastian Bryant keeps himself locked away in his home where he lives and works as CEO in the family business. After almost losing his daughter in the same house fire that took his wife, Sebastian has no idea how to care for the child, nor can he seem to keep a nanny on his employment roster for very long before his daughter scares them away. Isabel Jordan has just broken up with her self-centered boyfriend and moves back home with her eccentric, inventor father who has somehow managed to put the family home in jeopardy. When she sees an online ad for a nanny position, she applies for the position, hoping to help dig her father out of his debt and save the home she grew up in.Pressured by his mother to hire a suitable nanny, and finding Isabel only a step above the others, Sebastian hires her to care for his daughter. With his brother biting at the bit for the CEO position, Sebastian’s mother warns him that he can be replaced if he can’t manage to keep a nanny on to care for his daughter.Isabel can hardly stand the self-loathing billionaire, but if she quits, her father will lose his home.Forced to spend each day together, Isabel finds the beauty hidden beneath his scars and a little girl begging for the affections of her beastly father. If only she could make him see what she sees.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet story. Clean. Likable characters.

This was my first time reading a book by this author. It was a sweet and easy read. The story had a good pace and the characters are likable. (However, the ending was a little rushed.) Beauty and the Beast is my favorite fairytale, so I tend to like anything related to it. I enjoyed this book and will definitely read another book by this author.

Nice modern retell of Beauty and the beast. I’m going to download the retell of Cinderella, which from the preview looks to be even better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely loved this one

I think this is the best retelling of Beauty & the Beast. Sabastian is such an orger at the beginning & spoils his daughter, Lily, because of the guilt of loosing her mother. Isabel has the patience of a saint but stands up to Sabastian & give it back to him. Isabel's unconditional love for Lily & being sweet but also teaching Lily shows that that is part of what Lily needs to change her bad behavior. Then there is Isabel's boyfriend at the beginning who is absolutely rediculous in how he treats Isabel. Near the end of the book he reappears & pulls more awful things trying to get Isabel back. He really is unbelievable. Anyway, it's a really good story. Well done, Ms. Alexander.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEAUTY OF ISABEL'S MAGIC - TAMED THE BEAST!
Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2019
Verified Purchase
Of all the fairy tales I've read, "Beauty and the Beast" has always been my favorite. Since "The Billionaire Recluse" is loosely based on this fairy tale, Isabel and Sebastian's story has now become my "new favorite"! I especially liked the kindness and love that Isabel showed towards Lily and eventually Sebastian. She used her "magic" to change Lily's bad behavior, (cries for attention from her father), into the good behavior of a happy child, (who gave and received her father's love. It was also the "magic" of Isabel's love that softened Sebastian's heart, and "Tamed the Beast"!

This is a good retelling of the old fairytale story. It has a number of additions; a child; a broken marriage; and a dog. It was interesting and kept you involved right until the HEA end. Well done.
