The Damsel by Claire Delacroix

4.0

I picked these books up on a whim, and it is a whim that is paying off. I didn't realize they were fairy tale retellings, but I LOVE where the author takes them. This was a GREAT Cinderella story, and I loved that she didn't just swoon away (though I did feel sorry for the hero's blue balls a couple times). Both characters grew through the telling of this story and I LOVED it. One little nitpick, mauve wasn't a thing until the 19th century.
Highly Recommend.
