Beschreibung
After losing his wife, job, and home, Freddy Holmes and his children pack their bags and move to Meadow Lake, Wisconsin to live with his parents. One night, during a snowstorm, Freddy becomes lost and nearly loses his life. In the confusion, he eventually finds himself on the doorstep of a beautiful and mysterious castle. Inviting himself into what he believes is an unoccupied home, he partakes of the castle's pleasures, eventually leaving with a bouquet of flowers for his daughter Belle.
Unfortunately, the owners of this lovely home happen to be two beasts, who are none-too-pleased with what they perceive as outright theft, and Freddy is swiftly sentenced to death. Through some negotiations, he soon learns that there is only one way out; one of his daughters must agree to take his place. Cue Isabelle Holmes, a selfless 16 year-old with a heart of gold. Without hesitation, she agrees to go in her father's stead. When Belle's older sister Desiree learns of her sister's fate, she goes on a mission to save her, even if it means losing her own life. However, unbeknownst to Desiree, there is more to these beastly men, than meets the eye.
