Wonderful! The best I've read by Melanie Dickerson so far! 
 In this delightful Cinderella retelling, the Duke's son who got slighted when Sophie (Snow White) fell for his brother instead of him in The Fairest Beauty, gets his own happy ending with Gisela, a young woman who has been secretly in love with him since she was seven years old and he bought a horse from her father. 
 Less repetitive and a smoother read than The Fairest Beauty this one felt much more on par with The Golden Braid. I loved both Gisela and Valten and thought they were wonderful, fully-fleshed out characters whom I found a little more relatable than Gabe and Sophie. 
 I highly recommend this book, especially to fans of "Ever After" and "A Knights Tale". If you enjoyed either of those films, and don't mind a book with some heavy religious undertones, this is a must read for you!
