Synopsis
In this short story retelling of the classic fairy tale, The Goose Girl, Princess Evony is trapped. Cursed into silence by her scheming servant, what should have been the joyous start to her new life has turned into a nightmare. The man she should be marrying, Prince Maxence, is about to be married to her usurper, and Evony has been sentenced to tending geese, where her betrayer can ensure the truth never comes to light. To make matters worse, she can't seem to shake the enthusiastic goose boy into believing she has no intention of ever wedding him.
Armed only with the love letters from her betrothed and the necklace her mother gave her before she died, Evony must find a way to escape her curse and save the prince-and his kingdom-from the wicked girl who has sought to ruin them all. Even without the full power of her words, can she convince Prince Maxence that she's really the girl he's written to all these years? Or will she be stuck tending cranky geese forever?
This novelette retelling of The Goose Girl is a tale of clean, wholesome romance, magical mystery, and that ever-satisfying heroic happily-ever-after.
