GASTON, Disney Villains Happily Never After series
Gaston wasn’t always the most handsome man alive.
Angry at the world, he makes everyone around him miserable…until the day the magical Agatha saves Gaston's life, and they strike up a bargain that will change him forever. For every good deed Gaston performs, she will transform a part of his appearance. What Gaston doesn’t anticipate is that being good is not as easy as it seems.
As Gaston’s character begins to change with each selfless act, and Agatha transforms him into the hero she’s always dreamed of, an unlikely connection grows between them. But someone is setting Gaston up for a fall, and as the mystery unravels, Gaston and Agatha work together to unveil the culprit and protect their forbidden love.
When all seems lost, Gaston must decide what he values more—outward appearances or matters of the heart.
