The battle scars on his face conceal him from the world. He’s a professional problem solver and I’m his biggest pain in the butt. He’s formidable. Focussed. Chased by fiends both real and imagined. But beneath the cynical, stern exterior lies a true and tender heart - one that needs to command me. Too bad he’s employed by bad guys to haul me in and punish me for my so-called crimes. Even though I’m tempted to remain and solve the mystery of his demanding discipline, I know I have to escape and flee from his desire. He and I don’t stand a chance. I’m his enemy. A computer hacking, book reading, board game playing nerd who pissed off the villains that sent Liam to find me. Once he delivers me to them, my geeky days on this earth are over. But his lips scorch my soul and fuse me to him. They say that only in the darkness can you see the stars, and under the spell of twilight, his devouring kisses shoot me up to the heavens.

Download or read book A Cultural History of the Disney Fairy Tale written by Tracey L. Mollet and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-21 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book charts the complex history of the relationship between the Disney fairy tale and the American Dream, demonstrating the ways in which the Disney fairy tale has been reconstructed and renegotiated alongside, and in response to important changes within American society. In all of its fairy tales of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, the Walt Disney studios works to sell its audiences the national myth of the United States at any one historical moment. With analyses of films and television programmes such as The Little Mermaid (1989), Frozen (2013), Beauty and the Beast (2017) and Once Upon a Time (2011-2018), Mollet argues that by giving its fairy tale protagonists characteristics associated with ‘good’ Americans, and even by situating their fairy tales within America itself, Disney constructs a vision of America as a utopian space.
