Best-selling romance authors join together to write a series of books where classic Disney tales are retold as modern-day romances. Each book in the Meant to be series can be read as a stand-alone and in any order. Cinderella is a contestant on a Bachelor reality TV show, Belle is an editorial assistant helping an angry author write his memoirs, and Ariel is a pop singer escaping from her overprotective father to go on a rock band tour with a sexy lead singer. In the fourth book TANGLED UP IN YOU, Christina Lauren imagines Rapunzel as Ren Gylden, a naive 22-year-old college freshman who finally convinced her overprotective parents to allow her to leave their isolated farm to attend college in Spokane, Washington. Raised cut off from technology and society, Ren’s joy in life, honesty, and caring nature enchants the other students including enigmatic Fitz. When a science project reveals questions about her family heritage, Ren convinces Fitz to let her tag along on his cross-country Spring Break trip so she can try to find answers. A trip that leaves them both inarguably changed. Sweet slow-burn modern interpretation with many fun references to the original Disney film but also plenty of twists in the tale. You’ll want to read them all!
A witty and deeply romantic modern reimagining of Disney’s Tangled, by the New York Times bestselling author duo Christina Lauren, part of the acclaimed and bestselling Meant to Be collection.
She has a dream. He has a plan. Together they’ll take a leap of faith.
Ren has never held an iPhone, googled the answer to a question, or followed a crush on social media. What she has done: Read a book or two, or three (okay, hundreds). Taught herself to paint. Built a working wind power system from scratch. But for all the books she’s read, Ren has never found one that’s taught a woman raised on a homestead and off the grid for most of her twenty-two years how to live in the real world. So when she finally achieves her lifelong dream of attending Corona College, it feels like her life is finally beginning.
Fitz has the rest of his life mapped out: Graduate from Corona at the top of his class, get his criminal record wiped clean, and pass himself off as the rich, handsome player everyone thinks he is. He’s a few short months from checking off step one of his plans when Ren Gylden, with her cascading blonde hair and encyclopedic brain, crashes into his life, and for the first time Fitz’s plan is in jeopardy.
But a simple assignment in their immunology seminar changes the course of both their lives, and suddenly they’re thrown out of the frying pan and into the fire on a road trip that will lead them in the most unexpected directions. Out on the open road, the world somehow shifts, and the unlikely pair realize that, maybe, the key to the dreams they've both been chasing have been sitting next to them the whole time.
