From New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Katy Regnery comes a beloved collection of breathtaking romances based on the world’s most well-known fairytales!
“In this reimagining of the classic “Ugly Duckling” fairy tale, Regnery gives readers two leads who are easy to root for. The love story is beautiful, but the characterizations are what make this romance narrative truly stand out. A charming contemporary romance.” –Kirkus Reviews
** SWAN SONG (The Ugly Duckling) **
Once upon a time, a swan egg rolled into a duck nest…
While visiting Washington, D.C., with his billionaire parents, four-year-old Ivan Stepanov is kidnapped from the National Zoo, vanishing without a trace.
Sold, abandoned, neglected and abused, “Vaughn” matures out of the American foster care system with little-to-no memory of who he is or where he came from. Eventually finding work as a janitor at the Kennedy Center, he starts to question if a life void of love, family and friendship is even worth living.
Ballerina Sasha Collins worked hard her entire life to earn a position in the esteemed corps of the Washington D.C. Ballet, which rehearses and performs at the Kennedy Center. Intrigued by the scruffy janitor who’s often reading Russian poetry, she offers him kindness on one of the darkest days of his life, giving him a reason to live.
As they fall desperately in love with one another, Vaughn and Sasha have no idea that their days together are finite. His birth family is growing closer and closer to finding him, a circumstance that will eventually tear them apart.
From the cherry blossomed avenues of Washington, D.C., to the snowy streets of Moscow, to the breathtaking beauty of London in the fall, these separated, star-crossed lovers will have to crisscross the globe to find each other again.
