Bullsh*%! My whole life has been about waiting. Playing it safe. Be the good girl, don’t color outside the lines. Put in the hard work trying to prove myself to Dad, then to my college professors, then to my boss at New World Media. Just waiting for the day when it will all pay off. And right when it was all starting to—I finally had the house, the job, I was even thinking about getting a cat—boom!—my life explodes and suddenly now I’m here and— “All done,” the doctor interrupts my thoughts, pulling off her gloves with a loud snap. Even from the bed where I’m lying, my legs spread like the Thanksgiving turkey, I can hear the impatient growl of the man standing in the doorway. If you can even call him a man. More like a beast out of a friggin’ fairytale . “Well?” Her pronouncement echoes throughout the room while the speculum is still inside me. “She’s a virgin.” Intended for mature audience. Steamy romance with dark themes. INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR: Q – Where did you get the idea for this book? A – Who doesn’t love a Beauty and the Beast story? I’ve been in love with this fairytale since I was a kid and read all sorts of different variations on it. Now that I’m grown up, well, I couldn’t help but imagining some darker twists and turns the story could take. A tortured hero, kidnap, and a girl falling for her captor—hello, this is the stuff dark romance is made of! Q – Why should I read this book? A – I write the kind of books I love to read, which is dark romantic erotica. I want stories that steam things up in the bedroom but not if those scenes don’t go hand in hand with three-dimensional characters, can’t-stop-flipping-the-pages suspense, and quality writing. I like alpha males, (doesn’t hurt if they happen to be billionaires)!, bad boys, BDSM, contemporary, urban settings, and fiction where women can be strong while also exploring all sides of their sexuality. My favorite books are ones that dare to go into the darkest and most taboo places in the human psychological experience, leaving you wrung out on the other end. Review: Great read - I really enjoyed this book! I was in the mood for some smut because I just got done reading a book that was a slow burn and this book didn't disappoint. It also is unpredictable and ended way different than I thought it would. I was also very amused by the characters Xavier made me swoon and laugh. Review: The Virgin and the Beast - ebook/audiobook - narrator Shea Hart The Virgin and the Beast is the first book in the Stud Ranch Series. I believe this is a Beauty and the Beast retelling. This is Xavier (the beast) and Melanie’s (the beauty) story. I loved read/listened to their story. Shea Hart the narrator is new to me. I haven’t heard of her before. She did an amazing job. I really like how she voiced Melanie’s part. I am spoiled now because of duet or even full cast readings now so I still prefer when the author has at the very least a male and a female narrator but this was very good. I enjoyed reading Melanie and Xavier’s story. Xavier was pretty extreme in the beginning but you find out why and their story was great. I know I will be reading more from the Stud Ranch series! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,857 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #5 in Mystery Erotica #5 in Erotic Westerns (Kindle Store) #22 in Erotic Suspense (Kindle Store) | ## Images ![The Virgin and the Beast (Stud Ranch Standalone Book 1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91wgrN6OenL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great read *by N***I on January 31, 2026* I really enjoyed this book!

You are thrust into the emotional element of this story on page one. Mel was a hard working, no nonsense, driven person who was also in the middle of a crisis that made her desperate. I was drawn to her, and could sympathize with her, almost immediately. Xavier was a hauntingly, sexy, mysterious, giant of a man. His personality was magnetic. The emotional experiences Mel went through were so well written that I felt them with her. The fear, uncertainty, anger, acceptance, and then love felt honest and believable. I never wanted the story to end. However, the ending was beautiful! The story never felt forced or rushed in any way. It didn't feel too short, or repetitive at any time. I was very excited to see that there is now a story for Hunter, and I can't wait to read it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/102823333-the-virgin-and-the-beast-stud-ranch-standalone-book-1](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/102823333-the-virgin-and-the-beast-stud-ranch-standalone-book-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
