About THE BEAU & THE BELLE
Beau Fortier starred in most of my cringe-worthy teenage fantasies.
I met him when I was a junior in high school, a time that revolved exclusively around bad hair, failed forays into flirting, and scientific inquiries into which brand of toilet paper worked best for stuffing bras.
That is, until Beau moved into the small guest house just beyond my bedroom window.
A 24-year-old law student at Tulane, Beau was as mysterious to me as second base (both in baseball and in the bedroom). He was older. Intimidating. Hot. Boys my age had chicken legs and chubby cheeks. Beau had calloused hands and a jaw cut from steel. Our interactions were scarce—mostly involving slight stalking on my end—and yet deep down, I desperately hoped he saw me as more of a potential lover than a lovesick loser.
Turns out, I was fooling myself. My fragile ego learned that lesson the hard way.
Now, ten years later, we’re both back in New Orleans, and guess who suddenly can’t take his eyes off little ol’ me.
My old friend, Mr. Fortier.
But things have changed. I’m older now—poised and confident. My ego wears a bulletproof vest. The butterflies that once filled my stomach have all perished.
When I was a teenager, Beau warned me to guard my heart.
Let’s hope he knows how to guard his.

Four Stars
Beau, Beau, Beau! All the heart eyes for Beau!
Beau is a college student trying to get through law school.
Lauren is a 17-year-old high school student. There isn’t much Beau can do but
stay away.
This book is set in the past 10 years ago and the present.
It begins showing how their friendship was formed. The present show how that
bond has changed and not changed in the last 10 years they were apart. It is
told in dual POV so you get to see the struggle these two went through to do
right by each other.
Beaus is the most loving and caring hero ever. He will stop
at noth
ing to prove to Lauren that they should be together. He doesn’t care who
is standing in his way. He never acted on his feelings because of the age
difference, and now nothing is holding him back.
I loved Lauren’s character because you got to see her
transform from a shy, innocent teenage to a confident business woman. She still
has her insecurities when it come to relationships, but she is always upfront
and honest about her feelings. I think that is what I loved most about her. She
was always willing to put herself out there even if it caused embarrassment or
heartache.
Overall this was a great story. R.S. Grey really knows how
to get the reader invested into the character’s lives as they go on realistic
life journeys. I always know it is going to be a good read when her name is
attached to it!
I rated this book 4
stars instead of 5 because of the ending. Nothing bad happened. It just ended.
I have many unanswered questions. “What happened with NOLA?” being one of them.
An epilogue would have given the ending more closure.
