The Forever series by Lucy Darling includes four books published in 2021: Just One Look, You Are Mine, Beauty and the Outcast, and Beauty and the Gentleman. The last two borrow loosely from the beauty and the beast trope, with heroines who see past their heroes’ rough exteriors.
All four books have the short, sweet format that defines Darling’s work. The series is a good example of her range within the romance genre, from instant-attraction stories to character dynamics inspired by classic fairy tales.
