Cinderella

De: Jenni James

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A girl with a secret and a prince on a mission--

When Prince Anthony spies Eleanoria Woodston outside her family home dressed as a servant, he knows something is amiss. Pretending to be John, his cousin's outrider, he decides to take matters into his own hands and figure out why Ella hasn't been seen at court. And more importantly why the daughter of one of the wealthiest families in the kingdom dresses like a pauper.

Ella has had her own bout of trials, including losing her beloved father and facing the wrath and jealousy of her stepmother and stepsisters. Becoming a servant doesn't seem all that bad until the handsome John comes into her life, now he appears to be upsetting everything. Never before has she been so unsettled. Just his presence is making her dream of a life beyond this one.

When John invites Ella to the ball and she grudgingly accepts, he wonders if he's truly losing his mind. How would he ever pull off pretending to be John while obviously hosting the ball as Anthony? Especially when the stubborn girl has made it quite obvious she would never attend a ball with a snobbish prince.

Great story telling

This is the second book by Jenni James that I've read and I really like the style of story telling. The characters are grounded and reasonable and there isn't too much angst. Also love that the stories are clean and sweet, but still don't feel like they're too immature. Would recommend for a nice calm listen. The Virtual Voice fumbled it at times but was still tolerable.
