No. 3: When Beauty Tamed the Beast

When Beauty Tamed the Beast by Eloisa James

Another fairytale themed book - obviously Beauty and the Beast but interestingly the Beast has a healthy dose of Dr. House thrown in rather than an actual beast, which is pretty great!

Dr. MMC is a diagnostician living on an estate turned hospital in Wales where patients come from all over the United Kingdom for medical care. He is contacted by his estranged father who informs him that he needs to marry and he has secured the perfect bride.

The bride - FMC - is disgraced because the whole ton thinks she got knocked up by a prince. She totally is not, but that is really irrelevant to the ton.

There is a lot of sarcastic bickering, interesting medical maladies, two romances, a disgusting chicken coop, an awesome ocean pool, a terrible scarlet fever outbreak and Kibbles and Bitts.
