Romantic Fic Rec: (Not) Beauty and the Beast, A Fractured Fairy Tale by McKay [PG]

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
(Not) Beauty and the Beast, A Fractured Fairy Tale by McKay [PG] (2005) is one of my favorite fairy tales brought to wonderful life with Severus and Remus. How could I not recommend it?

Why I recommend it: As I got into the fandom, I kept hearing about Mckay's stories and one day, I tracked some down. This little gem caught my eye and my fancy. It's not often an author takes a beloved fairy tale and really makes it his/her own. McKay does that and still leaves me loving the Grimms' Fairy Tale version I grew up with.

My summary: It's hard to stay enemies with a determined werewolf who knows when to employ tea laced with alcohol. It's even harder not to fall in love with said werewolf when all the shouting's done.
