Unkissable: A Contemporary Retelling of The Frog Prince (Once Upon a Novella)

By Jaycee Weaver

Happenstance sparks transformation in this modern twist on The Frog Prince.

Ten years ago, teen-TV prince Jaime Reyes left behind his life in the spotlight with no regrets. He's proud of his charity work associated with the family restaurant empire, and no one could tempt him to risk the life of anonymity he's built. Especially not the former costar who broke his heart.

Reality TV diva Charlotte Lavigne has grown weary of the role she's been given to play, but the pampered princess life is all she knows, and change feels impossible. When an on-camera meltdown proves everyone's assumptions right, her only thought is to flee before it goes viral.

When a chance encounter brings the two together, Charlotte finds herself with an unexpected, albeit reluctant, sanctuary. At every turn, Jaime's goodness inspires her to grow into a better version of herself as old feelings are made new. But when Hollywood calls her home, will their rediscovered love be strong enough to triumph, or will she revert to the toad she used to be?

Inspired by Grimm's The Frog Prince (and not to be confused with The Frog Princess, an unrelated YA novel that a certain animation studio turned into a bayou flick) this dual point-of-view novella first appeared in the Once Upon a Summer collection. It is now the second book in a trilogy centered on fairy tale endings for all three Reyes siblings. As with all of Jaycee's books, you can expect a sweet and clean romance with HEA, borderline spicy kisses but no steam, and faith elements that feel natural and never preachy.
