Sweet Home, OR, March 31, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– “Princess Beauty”: a creative adaptation of beloved, familiar folklore. “Princess Beauty” is the creation of published author Elisa Rivas, a 27-year-old writer who loves to play with her writing style, from dark thrillers to light fairy tales, all written in either first or third person. As an adult, Elisa was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder which helped with her imagination for creative writing. Elisa was born in San Francisco, raised in Oregon through fourth grade, finished formal education in Maryland, attended a year at Minot State University in North Dakota, moved back to California, and finally settled in Oregon. She owns her first house and lives with her grandmother and dog, River.

Rivas shares, “How much do you know about your fairy tales? Did you know that they’re all connected? Did you know that it takes many hardships in a princess’s life to achieve a happily ever after?

“Love and Hate are two fairies fighting about whether or not the lovely Princess Bonnie should receive a happily ever after. Hate is determined to be the fairest one of all, and Bonnie stands in the way of her success. Love wants peace throughout the human realm, but when she discovers Hate is focusing on targeting Princess Bonnie, Love does all she can to protect her. Throughout their battle, Bonnie learns that she has a powerful and dangerous enemy who threatens her life several times as she lives out fairy tales that are well known and loved today. Love learns how to turn the struggles in life into positives while Hate continues to abuse her power. Will Love win the war? Will Princess Bonnie get her happily ever after? Will Hate become the fairest one of all and force Bonnie to receive a happily never after? Read to find out.

“In this book, various fairy tales link to form one story—the story of Princess Beauty.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Elisa Rivas’s new book will delight the imagination as readers immerse themselves in the magical tale of Princess Bonnie.

Scottsdale Author Joe Reina’s New Novel Follows a Killer Who Gets Away With It

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Joe Reina has published a new novel, "Shadows over Scottsdale: An Unsolved Murder Mystery," built around a scenario true-crime statistics make uncomfortably familiar: a man commits a devastating crime and simply disappears, leaving investigators and a grieving community with no resolution.

The book follows a character named Robert, who flees the country using forged documents and a cargo ship after an act of destruction that leaves behind, as the publisher describes it, charred remains and an unanswered investigation. The case goes cold. The novel, according to its publisher, is less concerned with the mechanics of the escape than with what happens afterward, to the people left waiting for answers that never come.

Reina, now retired in Scottsdale, spent decades in international business across apparel, footwear, and real estate, with extensive time in Europe and a particular connection to Italy that shaped two earlier books, "The Goat Sleeps in the Kitchen" and "A Love Affair in Tuscany." "Shadows over Scottsdale" marks a different direction, built instead around the real scale of unsolved homicide in the U.S. The publisher’s materials cite roughly 346,000 unsolved homicides since 1965, with more than a dozen occurring unresolved each day. Separate reporting on the book has cited a figure of about 7,778 murders in 2023 alone, which it similarly frames as more than a dozen a day going unresolved.

"Writing ‘Shadows over Scottsdale’ forced me to confront uncomfortable questions about justice itself," Reina said, according to the announcement. "Too many crimes go unsolved, too many families wait endlessly for answers. I wanted readers to understand that behind every cold case statistic is a real story, real suffering, and real questions that may never be answered."

The publisher positions the novel as an examination of institutional limits as much as a crime story: the toll of a case gone cold on the people who can’t move past it, and what it means for a community when accountability simply never arrives.

"Shadows over Scottsdale" is published by Covenant Books and is available in paperback and hardcover through the publisher’s website and major retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Apple Books.

Cold-case statistics tend to get cited and then forgotten. Studio CarryOnHarry is curious whether fiction built directly around that number does more to stick with a reader than the number alone ever does.

Joe Reina’s ‘Lost Masterpieces’ Imagines a Fictional Farewell Among Renaissance Painters

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Joe Reina has published a new novel, "Lost Masterpieces: Three Paintings, 500 Years A Journey Through Time," built around an imagined scene from Renaissance history: the night before Leonardo da Vinci leaves for Milan, when three fellow painters each hand him a small work carrying a private message.

According to the announcement, those three gifts come from Sandro Botticelli, Titian, and Andrea Mantegna, each painting standing in for a different kind of counsel. Botticelli’s piece is described as layered with allegory and coded warnings about power and patronage. Titian’s is framed as warm and sensual, suggesting reinvention and a break from convention. Mantegna’s is austere and classically precise, encoding discipline and endurance. According to the announcement, these three paintings form a wordless exchange between masters, transmitting wisdom, mutual regard, and assurance across generations through visual means.

Reina comes to this material from outside the art world. His career was built in apparel, footwear, and real estate development in Chicago, and the publisher’s materials trace his interest in European history, and in Italy specifically, to years of international business travel. He has published several previous books, including "The Goat Sleeps in the Kitchen," "A Love Affair in Tuscany," and "Shadows over Scottsdale," before turning to this account of a fictionalized moment at the hinge of the Renaissance.

"I wanted to capture that extraordinary moment when masters speak to each other across time through their work," Reina said in the announcement. "These paintings represent not just gifts, but a conversation about what it means to pursue greatness while remaining grounded in purpose and principle."

The book is published through Covenant Books and is available in hardcover and paperback, as well as through Apple Books, Amazon, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.

Studio CarryOnHarry is intrigued by novels that build fiction around real historical figures at a specific, dramatized turning point rather than attempting straight biography — the approach succeeds or fails based on how seamlessly the fictional moment integrates with documented historical fact.
