An outcast. A prince. And a deadly rebellion....

After a lifetime of rejection, seamstress Evie can't trust Frederic, the crown prince of Lanover - not his words of friendship or the way the warmth in his eyes seems to ask for even more. But when they end up on a tour of his kingdom - one filled with increasing danger - Evie's mistrust might doom them all.

In this spin on the classic fairy tale, an ugly duckling must discover her true worth in order to save her kingdom and maybe even find true love.

I love this collection of fairy tale retellings and this last book definitely did not disappoint. I loved the characters and the descriptions of the different parts of the Lanover kingdom. The narrator was enjoyable to listen to. I can't wait for the next series!

Great!

I have been caught up in this series all week. I listened to all 5 books, and will start the next box series as well. I love fairy tale retellings and listening to books with accents different than my own so I enjoyed the narration, however the narrator tends to swallow very loudly during pauses, I think this is a personal annoyance that maybe only I notice. Occasionally I have to skip back bc her voice becomes background noise, but otherwise, great stories!

Fun and lighthearted, yet still powerful and full of passion and hope. Just what I needed right now.

Beautiful stories

This is my favorite book in the entire series (and possibly of all time.) There is the perfect amount of romance, humor & action, and the characters are all so lovable! Celine is such a star, and it makes sense why she’s popular enough to basically be mentioned in every book going forward, she truly is a gem. Cassian is the perfect right hand man, and I judge books not only on the swoon-worthy princes, but also on how well their wingman is written. The only thing that could make this book better was if it was longer!!

My absolute favorite!

I thought the previous book in the series was my favorite but Melanie Cellier outdid herself with this one! Evie was such a wonderful young woman and I loved that she was from everywhere. She was also so real in that she had hard things in her past that she had to deal with and come through, and I relate so much to that. And even though we only glimpsed Frederic in the previous book, it made me insanely happy that he got his true love and happily ever after with Evie. And Celine is probably my favorite character in this whole series. I cried and laughed in this book so much, especially when it came to Cassian. I hope to see them all in the future!

Excellent story!

excellent story! the narrator does good at female voices, but the men's voices are cringe and hard to listen to.

I’ve read all her books multiple times and have now listened to most of them. Her stories are beautiful with wonderful twists and turns and love stories that give you those warm fuzzy feels. If you ever have a bad day just read her books and they make you feel better. All her series are phenomenal and so unique!

I just discovered Melanie Cellier’s books a few months ago and have been OBSESSED with listening to them on Audible ever since. This one might just be my new favorite! The story was absolutely wonderful, very sweet and charming and fun to listen to, and the narrator knocked it out of the park on this one! Her male voices can be hit or miss, but she did a great job with this one and she always puts so much emotion and drama into her voice that listening to the story is very engaging and transporting. I definitely recommend reading this entire series! Brava, Esther Wane! Brava, Melanie Cellier!

Absolutely wonderful!
