Like most of X. Aratare's work, this was originally serialized on her website, and unfortunately the rushed quality of the writing still shows even after adaptation into conventional novel format, which should have allowed her to polish and rework it more. How many times do we need to hear that Bane has "Siberian blue" eyes? The phrase appears 53 times in the three volumes - it was so repetitive I actually checked. There is no reason for this to even be three volumes, given the lack of any real conflict. A good 60-70% of is just filler that could easily have been removed or condensed into a single book. (And also: the absolutely excessive use of italics. Ugggghhh.)
But my biggest complaint and real reason for my rating is the portrayal of Bane's Indian manservant Omar, which is so horrendously racist I honestly can't believe what I just read. Never have I seen such a blatant "Friday" in a modern novel and it is a seriously bad reflection on the author, especially since Omar is also the only person of color in the entire series and possibly in all of Winter Haven. (She has several other series set in this fictional city and as far as I recall, none of them have featured any POC characters.*) And then we learn that his family is magically obliged to serve their colonizer (Bane became a weretiger while living in India during the British Empire era) basically forever and we're supposed to be okay with is because they're well compensated and Bane is paternalistically nice to them? Crusoe was nice to Friday too, what's your point? Oh, and I might add that the reason they serve Bane is because they are a line of priests in an exotic "Indian" religion the author completely made up who revere the tiger spirit that inhabits Bane - meaning they literally worship the white guy. *headdesk* Jesus Christ, Aratare.
(Omar is also frequently referred to as "the Indian Man" - another instance of Aratare's repetition problem - while none of the white characters are ever similarly reduced to their race/ethnicity/nationality. Bane is never "the English man," for example.)
Look, I know many readers don't want politics in their escapism, but it's unavoidable if your book by nature includes themes of imperialism, environmental destruction, and the abuses of corporate capitalism, and on top of that already has violent homophobia. As far as M/M romance goes, K.J. Charles is a very good example of how to deal with such weighty topics without detracting from the story. ( An Unseen Attraction in particular is actually set in the 1800s and features an Indian main character.) At this point, I think I'm going to give up on X. Aratare - I love her settings and weird fiction influences, but she has disappointed me way too often.

This is a whole-series review.
TL;DR: Cool story, slightly shallow in some parts, but gives a satisfying HEA. It would be a decently good read except it's plagued by technical issues that are front-and-center levels of distracting. I finished the series because I wanted to know how Nick and Bane turned out, but I won't read this author again for a long while due to the issues.
The longer version...
Alright, so this is probably the most polarizing series I've ever read. There are things about it that I loved and things that I fucking despised.
Is it a sweet, intriguing story with a unique background? Yes. I especially loved the portrayal of the tiger spirit, very adorable. It was definitely a different take on "shifters" and one that kept me turning pages.
I also liked the pacing for the most part, as well as the interweaving of the back history. Some parts, particularly in book 2, seemed to drag a bit, but it wasn't anything crazy. The resolution of family and "endgame" stuff near the end of the third book felt a bit rushed. I would have to limit my rating to a 4 for that reason, but still a good read...
And if those were my only thoughts, I would have indeed rated this an overall 4. But so far I've just covered the things I liked. Now let's talk about the fucking problems.
Let me first say these next things are basically technical issues. I normally don't care about that too much. Seriously, mistakes happen, no biggie. I rarely knock ratings for technical issues unless they are egregious, and even then it's usually just a minor half-star bump or so. What I'm about to list off, though, yeah I'm giving that rating a FULL 2-STAR DROP. It's that fucking bad.
HOLY REPETITIVE PHRASES, BATMAN! The epithets are out of fucking control. Do you know how many times the author says "the billionaire" or "the billionaire's" to refer to Bane or something of his? 107 times. That's an average of once every 5-6 pages. Yes, I counted with a search. "The billionaire" this and "the billionaire" that. Jesus, he's Bezos, we fucking got it the first 5 times (i.e. in chapter 1). It's even more stupid when you realize that not much of the story has to do with how rich Bane (or anyone else) is... why the fuck does it matter if he's a billionaire?
Another insanely repetitive phrase is used nearly as many times, describing Bane's "Siberian blue eyes". I'm not kidding people. It is used verbatim over and over and over just like that. It is so fucking cringe after the first few times.
And the icing on the cake for repetitive phrases, while also doubling as some of the most passively racist shit I've ever read in a novel... I present you the phrase "the Indian man," aka Omar! I think he's referred to as "the Indian man" just as many times as he's called by name. You are NEVER allowed to forget he's Indian. Ever. He's a cool character (though a tad bland), but holy fuck, author. Do a find/replace in your text editor for these phrases. The books will be instantly better. Did I mention Omar is an Indian man?
Finally, I save the most infuriating thing for last: the fucking use of italics. So normally, as basically everyone knows, authors use italicized words to convey emphasis. Well, if that's the case here, then this author really wants to emphasize the fuck out of EVERYTHING. Italicized words are used a MINIMUM of 5 times per page. PER PAGE. PER FUCKING PAGE. I'm not kidding, not exaggerating. At all. It was so distracting that I nearly DNF'd this series a handful of times despite really liking the story. Oh, and there was an Indian man, too, Omar I think is his name.
I eventually trained myself to completely ignore the italicized words and then it wasn't quite as painful. But it still fucking sucked. Whenever some dialogue rolled around that actually called for emphasis, I spent several moments re-reading and deciding whether to mentally inject emphasis and where. It was exhausting, and that was in between reading about the billionaire and his Siberian blue eyes.
I once again remind you that I do not usually care much for technical issues. So for me to bitch about this... yeah I will not be reading any other of this author's work for quite some time. Which is sad because they are clearly talented at creating interesting stories and characters. But damn does it need an editor. Or even just a single beta reader, fuck. Hopefully their future work will not have these problems and I can revisit later.
There's an Indian man in this story, by the way. Can't remember his name anymore, but he's definitely Indian, and a man. He's the billionaire's servant, you know the billionaire with the Siberian blue eyes.
Fucking eye roll.

4 3/4 stars
I really loved all three books of this series. Bane's stubbornness in accepting who he is makes you want to just strangle him... but Nick helps him see the errors of his way..lol. The only reason this did not get a solid 5 star was because a lot of the dialogue was repeated over and over. That got annoying...Also when a book is part of a series that needs to be read in order, a full recap of the last book shouldn't be included as part of the next story. If need be, do the recap of the last before the book actually begins. This was the reader who is reading in order can skip the recap and continue where they left off. It's always available to see and refresh if to much time lapses between books.

Let me start with the good:
I love me a good Beauty and the Beast retelling. I’d just finished the Vampire’s club series by the same author, and really enjoyed it for the most part. I had high hopes for this series. I will say, it did keep me entertained enough to actually finish it, and I was curious about how it would end. But I almost DNFed it so many times. And let me tell you why:
1. I don’t think it’s intentional (I hope it isn’t), but the whole premise of Bane’s curse is so messed up. Bane and his English colonizer family move to India, where they have Indian servants. The author barely gives them any personality or purpose , other than to serve Bane’s family. He then kills a sacred spirit of a “clan” and ends up cursed with being an immortal shifter. Literally their sacred spirit has to get imprisoned in some English guy?? Then for some reason people from this clan just devote their lives to him and serve him. Like… that’s messed up, right? It feels racist and icky. Bane and his family are also super disrespectful to these people. And I’m pretty sure the author refers to India as being away from civilization at one point. Yikes.
2. The writing. There’s this THING the author does. Where instead of just calling someone by their name, she refers to them with a description. But omg she repeats the same things so much that she almost uses them more than their real names. Bane is “the billionaire” and “the big man” 😂 it’s SO CRINGE every time. And that’s not even the worst one. She refers to Omar as, “the Indian man” literally multiple times per page. It’s CRAZY. Because she never ever refers to anyone else by their race or ethnicity. How the hell do you publish something like this??
3. Finally, this series was soooo long for no reason. It skipped over some moments that would have been sweet, but then other scenes were dragged out and described when they reallllly didn’t need to be.
4. Bane is just, a bad person?? There’s no doubt that he loves Nick, but I also don’t really get why nick likes him. He does horrible stuff, and then randomly changes his mind when things start to go bad for him. But the book treats it like it’s redemption or something.
Anyways. I am very shocked by how much I disliked this after enjoying another of this author’s series so much. Glad her writing has developed, but I also hope that she’s learned and educated herself from these ideologies that seem so casually rampant in this book.

3 books in the set and the first 2 are cliff-hangers so you have to go to the end of the 3rd for any ending (and, of course, it's a HEA). I enjoyed this author - first time author for me. The story is a twist on Beauty and the Beast. Probably could have been done in 2 books but overall, I enjoyed it and will be looking for more from this author.

Enjoyed
I enjoyed this authors take on Beauty and the Beast. I'm not much of a fan of flipping between past and present or of reading about previous partners so I could have done without the flip back to Alastair and Bane but I get why it was done.

This didn't feel like Beauty and the Beast. It's so much more. It's so much better than that. I laughed. I cried. Get tucked in and read.

Overall great story
There were some minor discrepancies, like how Omar had a whole family with grandkids and all that back in India, when Bane hadn’t been to India in quite some time. I can’t even see how Omar could have even found time to date anyone, let alone get married and have multiple kids.
Things were brought up about the rich guy Alric, but he didn’t seem to hold any importance at all really. He sounded like he could have been fae or something, but nothing came of the vivid descriptions of him.
The whole secret keeping thing was drawn out ridiculously and made Nick look like an idiot the majority of the time as all signs were there, especially after Bane told him about how he got his scar. Bane himself was quite annoying in the way that he always acted like he knew how Nick would respond to someone or he knew what the tiger spirit would do or think. The bad part was that it was continued for so long and drawn out so that it became annoying rather than just a part of who he was.
Maybe that was the thing, he was made to stay the same way for so much of the trilogy only to suddenly and abruptly change right towards the end. It wasn’t as gradual as it should have been on both parts I think. 🤷🏽♀️
Anyway, see my notes, highlights and commentary on Goodreads. Happy reading!

Overall, I enjoyed this book. However, the character development could have been more subtle and elegant; the story line picked up slightly, trimming 50-100 pages of redundancy; and the heavy reliance on italics drove me bonkers. It felt like the author was not using them for occasional emphasis but because they did not trust the reader to pick up important clues. Paradoxically, there was also a smattering of high-level vocab that was out of place in a book of this caliber and not always even a correct fit for what the author was trying to convey. Like they opened a thesaurus and chose the most remote synonym rather than the one with the closest meaning,,
A mild to moderate edit of this tome would elevate it highly.
That all said, it is worth the -slightly frustrating- read if you enjoy modern fairytales, billionaires, and a dose of family angst and internal struggle.

Very nice
I have been listening to this authors audio books on Spotify for a while now so I wasn't sure if I would like her written works as much as I love the audio but I wanted to give it a try and I really liked these two characters. This was a nice take on beauty and the beast. Just when you think the book is over there is more and it's just what I needed to read. Will go ahead and read more for sure.

I thought this to be a really good adaptation of the Beauty and the Beast story. It was faithful to the original without be an exact recreation. I enjoyed the first and last books of the series the best. I found the second book to be a bit tedious and skimmed a few chapters. Overall, I really enjoyed this series and will definitely read more by this author.

This series was a different take on shifters
Great! But this author has a tendency to overuse words so much it becomes irritating. Billionaire was used nine hundred billion times describing the mc, instead of his name or he or him. Bane and Nick were fantastic together once they both got over their insecurities and learned to trust.

I've been binge reading everything X. Aratare has written since I found them and this book has been just as amazing as the others.

3.5 🌟. The series on a whole was good, it just seemed so over-the-top dramatically romantic. If that's your thing, go for it.
