Until a runaway horse, a case of amnesia, and a cold-hearted king conspire to bring her to the prince's attention. Now the prince believes Ava is his bride, and her sister is just a serving maid. One thing is certain: the prince must marry one of the princesses, or there will be war. But when all's fair in love and war...who will win the battle for the prince's heart?

Mom Kat Reads

I've always enjoyed fairy tale retellings. This was a story in which I wasn't overly familiar with the original tale, but it was still a very enjoyable story to listen to. the narrator did a fantastic job of keeping each of the characters portrayed distinct from each other, so there was never any confusion as to who was supposed to be speaking at any given time. And the story held my interest throughout this audiobook. I do hope to listen or read more tales by Ms. Carleton in the future.

Too Dark

This made me feel awkward and awful the whole time. If you love gritty retellings of old stories this is for you. I love the goose girl story, so was looking forward to this. Preferred Shanon Hale's retelling much more. This was just too dark for my sake. I gave it 3 stars because it's well written, and the narrator did a good job, just the story made me feel awful the whole time. I don't mind a little gritty, but man this was rough for a fairy tale retelling.
