A collection of four romantic short stories:

Seeing Through Him: In a Beauty and the Beast retelling, the alluring Rosabella meets the invisible Leandro and strikes up an unlikely friendship. They must both overcome their insecurities to remain friends, but can they become more?

Her Dearest Treasure: In a retelling of The Peasant's Clever Daughter, Sonia takes up the challenge of King Basil to win his heart. After their marriage, he discovers she has not told him everything.

I Loved You Tomorrow: A mindreader meets a woman who sees the future-a future they are meant to share. Rhonwin must face his fear of her farfetched visions of him, and Moira must reconcile the fact her love is not yet hers.

The Veiled Queen: In a retelling of King Thrustbeard, Queen Barbenia visits Boscada in search for an economic deal via marriage, but comes away with a royal-turned-deckhand after Prince Elio pushes his father too far. Queen Barbenia, known to Elio only as Captain Thrush, teaches Elio the meaning of hard work.
