A Dance of Silver and Shadow Beyond the Four Kingdoms Series, Book 1 This series by Melanie Cellier makes teenage novels from classic fairytale narratives - some more familiar than others. This one, based on 'Twelve Dancing Princesses' has plenty of drama, mystery, action, and a PG-13 prince and princess romance. Since there are so many princesses (yes, twelve of them) who compete in the mysterious 'Princess Tournament' it was refreshing that they all read as distinct characters. This is likely because each is either the star or a major supporting character of another book in this series. Princess Liliana is the heroine of this story, and she shares a special gift with her twin sister - they can communicate telepathically. This turns out to be very helpful in the challenges of the Princess Tournament. These are ideal for younger students who want to read romance stories, but without the mature content of some other YA novels. Audiobook on Audible Review on Goodreads  

A Crown of Snow and Ice: A Retelling of The Snow Queen Beyond the Four Kingdoms, Book 3 Oh, the Snow Queen! This is probably my favourite book of this series by Melanie Cellier thus far. Princess Celine is visiting her friends (also princesses) in the kingdom of Eldon. Eldon is cold; a wintry land with people who have ingenious tunnel systems to traverse their snowy landscape, and a rich history and culture. But Celine is exasperated that nobody in the royal castle seems to care about anything at all! Celine, Crown Prince Oliver (and his hilarious younger sister) embark on a quest to discover the reasons for the missing artifacts in their castle, the eternal winter, and the widespread brain-fog plaguing Eldon. Meanwhile Celine must learn to manage her new magical powers over fire and heat - very convenient during their chilly quest. For those who have read Hans Christian Andersen's story, there are wonderful uses of many story elements. The novel's structure is episodic, though...
