Hoping to escape the troubles in her kingdom, Princess Poppy reluctantly agrees to take part in a royal exchange program, whereby young princes and princesses travel to each other's countries in the name of better political alliances-and potential marriages. It's got the makings of a fairy tale-until a hapless servant named Eleanor is tricked by a vengeful fairy godmother into competing with Poppy for the eligible prince. Ballgowns, cinders, and enchanted glass slippers fly in this romantic and action-packed happily-ever-after quest from an author with a flair for embroidering tales in her own delightful way.

Profile Picture

Princess of Glass, a retelling of Cinderella, is a companion novel to Princess of the Midnight Ball. In this book, Poppy and her unmarried sisters are sent to different countries through a royal exchange program of sorts, to promote better relationships between countries and, hopefully, result in some marriages. A second aspect of the story is Elenora, a girl who went from riches to poverty when her father's business transactions did not pay for their lifestyle and both her parents died. She changed her name to Ellen, and started working as a maid.
