Beauty and the Bries
Brielle Brieford has spent years delivering milk to the village’s irritable cheese maker, Dairyus Wheymore, dreaming of the day he’ll finally teach her how to make brie. Unfortunately, Dairyus seems more likely to slam the door in her face than invite her into his kitchen.
But Brielle isn’t giving up that easily.
As the seasons pass, stolen moments over bubbling milk and aging cheese turn into friendship, laughter, and something far sweeter. Beneath Dairyus’s sour expression lies a lonely heart, and Brielle may be the only one stubborn enough to soften it.
Filled with cozy kitchens, baby goats, heart-shaped brie, and a romance that only gets better with age, Beauty and the Bries is a warm and whimsical Beauty and the Beast short story fairy tale retelling about love, cheese, and finding someone worth melting for.

Gabrielle Landi
Gabrielle Landi is an author who brings the magic of small-town life, second-chance love, and sweet, heartfelt romance to the page. A resident of Southern Indiana, she lives with her husband, children, and an ever-growing army of stray cats that seem to find their way to her front porch. Between chasing kids, brewing coffee (sometimes more than she'd like to admit), and sneaking chocolate whenever she can, Gabrielle's days are as full as the pages of her books.
Gabrielle’s writing journey started with a dare at the age of fifteen, when a friend challenged her to try Camp NaNoWriMo. That first attempt might have been imperfect, but it sparked a passion that never dimmed. What began as a hobby quickly blossomed into a full-fledged career, with Gabrielle now creating stories that transport readers to cozy, romantic worlds filled with characters they can’t help but root for.
