***FREE STORY***Antoine, his daughters Marthe, Marie and Beauty must leave fashionable Paris for rural Avon, in the shadow of enchanted forêt de Fontainebleau. News from Paris offers the family a glimmer of hope, until Antoine comes face to face with a ferocious Beast... Wattpad Reader Reviews: @nycgal38 I love the beginning! I'm thinking at this point it would make a wonderful bedtime story. It's so beautifully described! @thebeast86 This is so well written. I LOVE your writing style ❤❤❤ @AmandaUrie23 I love how in your version of beauty and the beast, you've given the beauty's sisters more character and made them more realistic as opposed to most accounts where the sisters are just bland and mean. I also like how you've given Belle a backstory. The best part in all of this is the historical accuracy, and the proper use of royal titles. It's my first time reading this and I'm so excited for what's to come! @MellifluousSkies This feels like a brand new story, as I am reading it, even though it is "a tale as old as time". Great story telling...I love the filling out you have done with such a classic tale, adding more background and feelings to really give the story a large presence. Brava! @random__thoughts I'm so glad that I found this! It's amazing and deserves way more attention! @mirabellaspencer I love love love ur book beauty and the beast. The way that u changed the story but yet kept it the same was amazing. @juliadarcy87 Omg Disney skipped the plan to eat her haha. @eldorado16 Love the first line! And impressed by how Beauty seems to bring out the best in everyone - except her sisters. @AmericanBeauty_y I effing love this story! I don't understand why it isn't more popular

She would read and wait for her Prince Charming to come and sweep her off her feet. But when she agreed to get married to Chase Edwards on the request of her mother to save Emily from an arranged marriage, she didn't know that Chase was no Prince Charming. Read "Broken Hearts" to know how Hailey ended up falling for the man that was no Prince Charming. Copyright ©Sonysa [S.G. sonysa] All rights are reserved

[Edited Version] “You ever think about letting your hair loose?” Ashton asked, his breath kissing Amor’s neck as they waltzed. “My hair’s fine,” Amor snapped in annoyance. Ashton chuckled. “That’s not what I meant.” His hands slowly hiked up the hem of her dress and her breath caught. “What are you doing?” She uneasily glanced around at the dancing couples. “Giving a new meaning to dirty dancing,” he replied quietly. And he entered her. [Cover by @zarawhite]
