I had seen a call for submissions for fairy tale inspired novellas. As I love fairy tales, I was pretty excited at the idea of writing my own spin off. Many romance authors have done so and I didn't want to use the most common ones like Beauty and Beast, Cinderella or Little Red Riding Hood. I tried to think of which fairy tale had left an impact on me but that was not as mainstream as these classics. That's when I thought Bluebeard's folktale. It always fascinated me but I disliked how Bluebeard was depicted as randomly malicious, and especially how women were portrayed as so stupidly nosy, they'd deliberately put their lives at risk just to satisfy their curiosity. This was the perfect opportunity for me to give the story a different spin.

I just finished book 2 and I somehow stumbled onto the beautiful pictures at the end. I missed them because I'm so busy trying to get my review posted to Goodreads and Amazon without it snapping off on me... I can't be the only reader that's missed those fabulous pictures of our beloved Aliens. SO, Why not put a note in a Prologue to Let the reader know they're at the end of the book? OR Put them in as a Prologue?
