A sweet historical romance. I enjoyed the play on the Cinderella story and the interplay between the two main characters.

"But then" he went on, stepping closer to her, "I'm not sure beautiful is the way I'd describe you." 

“No?" She gave a shaky laugh. "What word would you use then?” 

His lashes lowered as he looked down, then lifted as he met her gaze. "Incomparable"


This read like a fairytale honestly, it was lighthearted, low angst, with a dash of spice. Truly a lovely refreshing read! I also devoured it quickly because of how easy going it was haha. Overall loved this! Especially that last third, omg 🥹🫶
