Beauty's Punishment by A.N. Roquelare
I was even less impressed with this one than the first one in the trilogy. Why would Beauty deliberately choose to be punished more severely than she was in the palace? I don't think that question is ever satisfactorily answered. What we do know is the first thing she does when she gets in the cart to go to the village for punishment, the first thing she does is screw another slave, one she is seeing for the first time ever. Who does that?
So, they go to the village where they are auctioned off and get new masters. Yea.
This disturbs me because gang rapes are almost celebrated. At one point, Beauty is servicing several men at once and enjoying it, even though it wasn't her choice. Somehow, I have my doubts that, if Beauty were real, this would be something she enjoyed. Worse, Tristan, the slave Beauty screws in the cart, falls in love with his "master" who literally treats him like a pony.
Yes, I am going to read the final book. I spent the money, and it would be a waste to do otherwise. I am not sure what I expected, but what I got wasn't it.
