About this listen
When Lady Olivia Gosling finds the Book of Love in a musty bookshop, she is most eager to try out its love "recipes" on someone safe.
Did she say safe?
Well, Beast isn't really safe, but with her odious guardian about to marry her off to one of his unsavory friends, Olivia needs her childhood friend to fall in love with her...fast. If Beast can love her, then any man she chooses will surely do the same.
Alexander Beastling, Duke of Hartford, is known as Beast among the ton. He is big and muscled, and there is a dark aura of mystery about him that he makes no effort to dispel. Now that he's returned from battle, he's appalled to learn of the marriage plans Lady Olivia's loathsome guardian has for her. Beast has decided that he will help her find a proper husband, even if it means putting up with her ridiculous experiments taken out of a book she refers to as the Book of Love. Olivia calls them magical recipes for love.
Is it possible they actually work? Because suddenly, Beast can't seem to get Olivia out of his mind...or his heart.

Good Read
Platt does a good job of balancing the story and setting the foundation for the series. Olivia and Beast are stronger, interesting and intriguing characters, who captured my attention from the start. The secondary characters added both to the story and to the main characters. I enjoyed this book and am looking forward to continuing with the series, especially to find out where the ‘book of love’ will end up next.

Hooked from the start
Having read numerous later editions of the Book of Love series, it was nice to come back to the beginning. Olivia getting goosed by the book falling on her head was a numerous start for this mystical book. I love a good childhood lovers story, the slow burn of friends to lovers. Watching the hero gradually start to view his childhood friend as something more, his feelings inevitably surprising him. Goose was so patient with Beast, content to be his friend until he falls headlong into love. Meara Platt writes an absolutely delightful, fluttering tale of love and whimsy. I spent most of this book with fluttering butterflies in my chest. The characters are developed so you can’t help but love them and feel instantly bonded to this group and excited for all the stories to come. The audio is done with a soft pleasant voice, with delightful inflections. I was hooked from the start.
