The country of Rinith has always lived in fear. In fear of the dark beast that lies in the towering castle, closed away for centuries. The country operates under its law, but whispers of a revolution sweep through the population more and more everyday.
Helene joins the sweeping revolution, but when she finds her father being attacked, she rises to his defense, and ends up chasing after him into the dark halls of the castle, where nobody has yet returned, and where she is certain she will remain until the end of time.

Now, especially, about a year after having her heart broken, she is more desperate than ever to leave. Not to mention her father's health, a problem that she cannot fix with her magic. But when an opportunity arises, Myalah is torn with indecision. Can she really set her ideals aside and leave her only home she's ever known for a possibility, and an unlikely one at that? A BEASTLY PRINCE. Luka, 'the Beast' and heir to Valennia's throne, is running out of time. As a young boy, a curse was cast upon him, one that could break his kingdom should it take full effect. He won't allow it to happen. Unfortunately, the one solution Luka was given, the one way to break the curse, his one way out, has a time limit-and he is nearly eighteen. Plus, the solution, to love and be loved, seems unattainable. Can he truly open his heart to someone else? More importantly, can he be enough for someone else's heart? Their worlds collide as their fights begin; Luka fighting against his family's will and himself for hope, for love, and for his kingdom, Myalah fighting the status quo and the jealous nobility for herself and her father.

That all changes on the day she goes for a walk on a nearby hiking trail in her home town of Berkshire, Vermont. Suddenly, Mable is trapped in an enchanted castle, with magical servants and their "Master", a man turned hideous by a terrible curse. Only true love can free them all from their prison, and the castle residents are convinced Mable is the one who will save them all. But Mable does not want to fall in love; she just wants to go back to her normal, everyday life. Yet the longer she stays, the harder it becomes to go back to the life she both wants and rejects. She makes new friends, and even finds herself falling for the man behind the beast. But will she have to give up all that's important to her in order to be truly happy?Complete
