Rhen is the crowned prince of Emberfall, and after a poor choice in the bedroom, he was cursed to repeat the fall of his 18th year over and over again until he gets a girl to fall in love with him and break the spell. B & the B has always been my favorite Disney princess movie for perhaps obvious (bookish) reasons, and maybe even started me on my love for the enemies-to-lovers trope?
