What if the Frog Prince isn't so charming?What if Rumpelstiltskin is?And what if a certain long-haired girl trapped in a tower becomes a heroine rather than a damsel in distress?The Twisted Fairy Tale Series, seven complete novels, are available in this boxed set. At 8.99, you'll save over $15 from buying each novel one by one. "The modern and the classic collide" in seven fairy tales as you haven't seen before.Thread and Spool: Brie finds herself in the world of Fable, where the fairy tales are real and much, much darker than she thought. Cursed with the ability to spin gold, escaping one of Fable's evil kings may force her to take the hand of Rumpelstiltskin himself!Wolves and Paths: Red and her boyfriend sneak off on a vacation to escape her controlling grandmother. Little does she know that she's about to enter another world, one where she will have no choice but to act out a famous fairy tale to save her grandmother.Frogs and Princes: Candice hates being the rich girl in town and the fact that the most irritating guy in school, Shorty, has a huge crush on her. She can also hear frogs talking. Awkward. But when a frog begs her to save him from dissection, she starts a chain of events that land her and Shorty in Fable. It turns out she's a princess and the frog she rescued is meant to be her prince. But he's a huge jerk, and if she doesn't free him from his curse and agree to be his bride, her kingdom will turn dark and fall into the hands of the most powerful dark wizard in Fable. Towers and Braids: Rae's world is safe. Her tower is all the shelter she needs from all the scary bandits, beasts, and dark forces her mother says roam her world. But when a young man, Henry, befriends her and is chased off by her mother, Rae learns that she carries a special gift capable of fighting the worst darkness in the world—a gift that her mother wants to keep for herself. And it is also because of this gift the evilest wizard in the land wants to take her life. Poison and Mirrors:Mara lives in the town orphanage with Sara, her best friend, and there's no room for being a pushover when you're the bottom rung of the social ladder. Her crush, Eric, probably doesn't realize she exists. But now that she's finally drawn Eric's attention, scary things happen to Mara and they're right out of a fairy tale. A teacher's tie nearly chokes him to death and classmates turn into donkeys...and it seems all this dark magic is aimed at Mara. Worse, she's been having a nightmare about a very red and dangerous apple...Swans and Silence: When her six brothers are transformed into swans, Ignacia flees into the wilderness. Armed with only a magical ball of yarn, she must free her brothers from their curse. The catch? She must weave her brothers shirts out of a special type of flower. She also can't speak a word until they are completed. Glass and Death: Shorty's world is in trouble. The land of Fable is falling victim to a growing darkness, one being spread by an evil dark wizard named Alric who is bent on making every fairy tale fall. On top of that, Shorty's grandmother hates him and even the knights around his castle fear him. The fact that he's the son of Alric might have something to do with that.No matter how far Shorty runs, he cannot escape from his origin and the dark magic pulsing through him...Fans of Marissa Meyer, SM Reine, KM Shea and Chanda Hahn will love the Twisted Fairy Tale Series!Keywords: Contemporary fantasy, fairy tale, fairytale, retelling, swan, fantasy romance, high fantasy, portal fantasy, king, royal, queen, princess, prince, crown, thread, golden, fables, fae, rumpelstiltskin, frog, little red riding hood, glass, slipper, wolf, braid, poison, snow white, dark fantasy, young adult, teen, ya, children, novels, spinning wheel, glass coffin, wizard, witch, six swans, cinderella, dwarves, rapunzel, knight
