After the whole fiasco with the underground demons who kept Princess Poppy and her eleven other sisters dancing every night till the break of dawn, going to live in Breton seemed easy. She vowed to never put on another pair of dancing slippers, but that social time could be used to win at playing cards and develop a friendship with the visiting, handsome Dane prince Christian.... maybe even more.

In comes Eleanora, once a daughter of the social elite, now turned maid. Allowed to go to the balls provided she find a sponsor for her clothes, she sets her eyes on the prince. So, who's going to win the prince's heart?

Poppy never thought she would delve back into the mystical world of magic, demons, ball gowns, and cinders and special dance slippers [made of glass!], but she takes on this adventure. This time, can she handle it on her own?

This fairytale action/romance story is sort of a continuation of "Princess of the Midnight Ball" the story about the eldest of the sisters. Now it continues with another sister who still remembers the horrors of the curse that was passed down from their mother. Also, elements of Cinderella make the story that much more intriguing with the characters. Poppy, for example, is very forthright and regal that just screams of her nobility and her own elegance that marks her a true princess, witty and sly all the same.

The only thing I wished for was probably more interaction with some of the characters, though many times they provided humor in the scenes that kept you hanging; a truly enjoyable read.
