I loved this story!
It looks like Beauty and the Beast but The Monster of Montvale Halle it's more than the beloved tale.
As a bigger brother, Robert wants to spend time just with his friends but his little sister always finds ways to tag along, and an unfortunate accident changes their life forever.
After finishing school, he withdraws himself from society and even estranges himself from his good friends that tried to keep him close, just James remains close enough, and when he is visiting with an American cousin, he has to accept that his mother happiness is more important than his grief and darkness.
Abby is a very young lady and seems to be too good for him, really,
he gets so rude towards her so many times, but she just keeps trying because she knows that deep in his soul he can't be the monster he is showing everyone,
that it's just a mask to protect his heart after the loss of his beloved sister.
They start a journey of friendship first where she is trying to make him believe in forgiveness and that life is wort to be lived.
Great writing,
lovely characters and a great story about finding the power to forget and carry on hoping for a happily ever after with the perfect match
