Dance: Cinderella Retold by Demelza Carlton

5.0

This retelling of Cinderella is a mixture of Mulan and Cinderella that is interwoven masterfully. The story captured me from the beginning. The characters are well developed and filled the story with real emotion and depth that made me want to continue reading to discover what happens. Mai and Yi have such a genuine chemistry, and I loved their banter and relationship. As with Enchant, I was thrilled to get to the HEA, but at the same time, I wanted the story to continue so that I could spend more time with the characters. Demelza Carlton has great skill in recreating and giving new life to the fairytales that we know and love. I also commend her ability to develop strong female characters who can handle themselves and take matters into their own hands. I can't wait for the next book in the series!
