Story
Born with a gift for music, Nannerl Mozart has just one wish - to be remembered forever. But even as she delights audiences with her masterful playing, she has little hope she'll ever become the acclaimed composer she longs to be. She is a young woman in 18th century Europe, and that means composing is forbidden to her. She will perform only until she reaches a marriageable age - her tyrannical father has made that much clear. And as Nannerl's hope grows dimmer with each passing year, the talents of her beloved younger brother, Wolfgang, only seem to shine brighter.

Story
Eighteen-year-old Gu Miyoung has a secret - she's a gumiho, a nine-tailed fox who must devour the energy of men in order to survive. Because so few believe in the old tales anymore, and with so many evil men no one will miss, the modern city of Seoul is the perfect place to hide and hunt. But after feeding one full moon, Miyoung crosses paths with Jihoon, a human boy, being attacked by a goblin deep in the forest. Against her better judgment, she violates the rules of survival to rescue the boy, losing her fox bead - her gumiho soul - in the process.

You were my first. Not just sex, although that was part of it, but the first to look past everything else into me. Some of the names and places have been changed, but the story is true. It's all here because one day this will be the past and I don't want to forget what I went through, what I thought, what I felt, who I was. I don't want to forget you. But most of all, I don't want to forget me.

Publisher's Summary
Best-selling authors Margaret Stohl and Melissa de la Cruz bring us a romantic retelling of Little Women starring Jo March and her best friend, the boy next door, Theodore "Laurie" Laurence.
1869, Concord, Massachusetts: After the publication of her first novel, Jo March is shocked to discover her book of scribbles has become a best seller, and her publisher and fans demand a sequel. While pressured into coming up with a story, she goes to New York with her dear friend Laurie for a week of inspiration - museums, operas, and even a once-in-a-lifetime reading by Charles Dickens himself! But Laurie has romance on his mind, and despite her growing feelings, Jo's desire to remain independent leads her to turn down his heartfelt marriage proposal and sends the poor boy off to college heartbroken.
When Laurie returns to Concord with a sophisticated new girlfriend, will Jo finally communicate her true heart's desire or lose the love of her life forever?

Surprisingly Unromantic
I was surprised that the story wasn't very romantic for a "romantic retelling." While the other reviews would have you think this book is a passionate siege, at last breaking down those walls around Jo's heart, there are only perhaps a handful of romantic moments between Jo and Laurie. I also felt the pacing was a bit strange. I really expected to like this book but I didn't. I'm sure many people will and do, but it wasn't for me.

A Romantic Dream
I am so glad that I stumbled across this masterpiece after reading Little Women. I can only hope that one day someone will make it into a movie. Or a mini series. Nothing can be left out. I couldn't stop listening. I laughed, I cried, I hoped. And I was not disappointed

Heartwarming retelling
I thought this was a poignant retelling of a well-known, beloved story. I have always been Team Jo & Laurie so this book satisfied my interests. The plot was a bit predictable, but it was still told in a warm & very likeable way.
