By the Book: Jasmine Guillory reimagines Beauty and the Beast as a literary workplace romance that’s a tale as old as time.

Kiss the Girl: Zoraida Cordova reimagines The Little Mermaid as a pop star struggling to find her voice and listen to her heart.

When sparks fly, can Ariel follow her dreams, fall in love, and, somehow, find her own voice?

Tangled Up in You: Christina Lauren reimagines Tangled as a modern romance about breaking free from the past and opening your heart to the future.
