The similarities are strong and evident: pop stars with mental health issues have enormous wealth, health and professional careers put under the tight control of a relative/manager through a conservatorship that is intended to be temporary and yet seems to persist indefinitely. This story struck me as less a fairy tale and more the male-equivalent tabloid story of Brittany Spears’ life. Val’s life and finances are controlled by his uncle and it seems that every time Val gets close to getting out of the conservatorship, something inexplicably goes wrong and he ends up back at square one still under his uncle’s thumb. Here, long-haired Rapunzel is pink-haired pop star Val, who is metaphorically locked up in a tower through a conservatorship held by his uncle. Hair and Heart is a spin on the fairy tale Rapunzel. All books are completely standalone and are modern retellings of classic fairy tales with a gay romance twist.
Hair & Heart is part of the MM Fairy Tale Romance series.

I am a life-long resident of Michigan, and I know Brigham lives in Michigan as well, so I was happy to see Sault Ste Marie, or The Soo, both Michigan and Canadian sides, used as a setting, with the cold and beauty of an Upper Peninsula winter captured perfectly.TITLE: Hair and Heart: A Contemporary MM Rapunzel Retelling I could feel the longing between Noah and Simon, and was eager to see if they got to their HEA. Brigham Vaughn’s characters always feel like flesh and blood people the reader happens to meet and start talking with. While they finally get a chance to be together, they need to figure out if this day trip can actually turn into something more. Both men are unattached and it’s clear the years between hasn’t dimmed the spark between them. Now, a decade later, they run into each other on the Snow Train, a sightseeing day trip in Canada. Noah and Simon met in college, but the time was never right for them to get together as more than friends before Noah left to join a minor league hockey team. Secondly, I’ve discovered I really love a good second chance romance, and this story is a perfect example.
