This story line mostly uses Beauty and the Beast as the framework but does give a quick nod to Cinderella [ in a good way] and one scene to Little Red Riding Hood. It was a fun read but the only real problem was you knew who the bad guy was fairly early on and I honestly didn't feel there was much spark between the two protagonists no matter what was written down on the page. Of course this didn't stop me from tearing through the story quite quickly and still liking the whole idea of " The Tradition" that wants to warp people lives to fit certain folk tales with no regard to people's lives.
