A different interpretation of a famous fairy tale

Once upon a time, in a faraway land, Lived a handsome Prince and a beautiful Princess. They lived in a shining castle, And had everything that their hearts could desire. The Prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind, The Princess was caring, loving, and generous. One winter night, a poor woman arrived upon their door, She offered the Prince and Princess a single rose, For shelter in return. While the Prince sneered, the Princess attempted to sway her brother's mind, But he turned the beggar away. The old woman warned him not to be deceived by appearances, The Prince dismissed her once more while his sister scolded his cruelty. Then the haggard woman's appearance melted away, Revealing a magnificent enchantress. The Prince tried to apologize, but it was too late, For she had seen that there was no love in his heart. And as punishment, He would die at the hands of her wrath. But the Princess begged for her brother's life, Offering hers in place of his. Since the fair maiden had shown her kindness, The magical stranger granted her brother a lesser punishment. She transformed him into a hideous beast, And placed a powerful spell on the castle and all who lived there, And cursed his sister into an eternal slumber, Ashamed of his monstrous form and his failure to protect his sister, The beast concealed himself inside his castle, With a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world. The Rose she had offered, Was truly an enchanted rose, Which would bloom until his twenty-first year. If he could learn to love another, And earn her love in return By the time the last petal fell, Then the spell would be broken and his sister would awaken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast For all time. As the years passed, He fell into despair, and lost all hope, For who could ever learn to love... a Beast?

As Lord Adam Beresford left Ashwood, Hertfordshire for the training and education of a gentleman, he promised to return and marry his childhood best friend, and the only girl he could see himself marrying, Grace Denham. Neither of them foresaw that it would be twelve years until they would meet again. A lot has changed in that time, and their lives are vastly different. Adam became a gentleman, and everything that the heir to a Dukedom ought to be. Grace remained in Ashwood and became a housemaid to support her family. But as their lives intertwine once more, their childhood promise bubbles to the surface, throwing their lives, the lives of their families, and the village of Ashwood into chaos.

The words graceful, proper, ladylike and elegant could never be used to describe Perrie Beresford, the eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Ashwood. Perrie has always had a little too much fire in her to ever be classified as a beautiful young debutante, which is what she will inevitably become in her first Season. But romance, courting, and marriage are the last things on Perrie's mind. Especially when her nemesis, who was once an annoying classmate, suddenly appears in her home as her father's protégé. As Perrie is pushed towards the life of an adult by those around her, she can't help but be pulled into a game of wars within the walls of her very home. But Perrie is about to learn that the line between love and hate are very fine ... and perhaps might not even exist at all.
