Happy Novels by D.N. Leo • Fairy Tales With Fangs • Soulmate Registry

A sixpence. A signet ring. A well between worlds.

Two cases. Two beasts. Two women nobody thought needed saving — and two field agents who insist, at volume, that they require no help of any kind.

Case One — the Cinderella. The real one.
When a mouse named Buttonhole is handed one coin and three hours to stop a cursed slipper from erasing a prince, he improvises a donkey.
And when the curse comes back rewritten — aimed at Cinderella this time — Prince Alaric asks the fae who cursed him for one thing: give it to me instead. Leave her alone.

Case Two — Beauty and the Beast. (Yes. Two beasts. One book. The quota is met.)
Skye is a divine healer who has never once felt pain. She sneaks into a werewolf town for a single night to learn what mortals actually suffer — and doesn't expect the golden eyes in the treeline to belong to her fated mate.
Then three days of him end with her touch blistering his skin. A healer who cannot touch her own mate. An alpha who would rather burn than let go.

The Soulmate Registry has sealed fated bonds for eight centuries. Rosalind's agents are the best she has. They are also completely convinced they need no assistance whatsoever.

So she doesn't send help. She sends Vitrine — mirror specialist, one very old debt, one instruction: watch, and do not reach through the glass.

A Norwegian Forest Cat with eight centuries of dignity and no intention of admitting he feels things. A mouse in a signal-flag waistcoat. A shapeshifter who becomes a lamp post, a key, a tea cart, and a deeply mediocre person he dislikes intensely. A donkey who wants his knighthood in writing.

Two beasts. Two impossible bonds. Two guaranteed happy endings — and one fairy godmother who will deny all of it.

Perfect for readers who love: fated mates and fairy tale retellings, alpha werewolf shifter romance, cursed beast heroes, forced proximity, touch-her-and-die protectiveness, laugh-out-loud animal sidekicks, and a guaranteed HEA every single time.

Four connected novellas. Two complete romances. No cliffhangers.

My Review:

Cinderella

Waltzing Into Love: Soulmate Registry, the fifteenth book in the Fairy Tales With Fangs series by D. N. Leo, brings us two captivating stories. The first is a unique Cinderella retelling split into two parts: The Sixpence in Her Shoe and A Shoe in the Garden. When a prince is cursed, Cashmere—a fifteen-pound Norwegian Forest cat—promises to help Alaric find a way to break it.

I absolutely loved reading Waltzing Into Love. What I enjoyed most was that the story is told from the points of view of Cashmere and Buttonhole. I was completely drawn into the narrative the exact moment Buttonhole made his first appearance.

Beauty and the Beast

The second story is a captivating Beauty and the Beast retelling centered on Skye, a healer cursed with the inability to touch her fated mate; if she does, he will blister painfully. Because Skye cannot feel physical pain herself, she sneaks into a werewolf town one night to learn what human sensation truly feels like. There, she unexpectedly crosses paths with the very mate she cannot touch.

Skye is accompanied by Pax, a fiercely devoted shapeshifter sidekick who can transform into whatever she needs at any given moment to ensure Skye's happiness. I loved watching these characters transition from desperate survival to a beautiful, unified bond once their fated connection takes over!

Between Skye's emotional journey and Pax's unwavering loyalty, this part of the book is an absolute must-read for any paranormal romance lover!

Waltzing Into Love

D. N. Leo’s Fairy Tales With Fangs series gets better and better with each installment. The more stories I read, the deeper I fall in love with this universe. Every time I finish a new book, it becomes my absolute favorite—until the next one comes along! Each story holds a truly special place in my heart in its own unique way.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves unique fairy tale retellings, witty animal sidekicks, and a great supernatural romance!
