Books like Stealing Beauty

Julia Sykes takes the fairytale and makes it a crime. Stealing Beauty has a crime family snatch a woman who despises her captor. Gloom from cover to cover, nothing coy in bed. The beast here wears a suit and gives orders. If dark retellings with a crime family twist sound good, this is one of the cleaner examples. Check every warning before you start.
