Brought to the palace as a newborn, the royal life bestowed upon Mackenna Sparrow was never meant to last forever. With Princess Alina engaged to be married, Mackenna’s presence as companion is no longer required and, like it or not, she must return to the birthright which should have been hers – that of a commoner. But not everyone at the palace wants her gone. When the truths she’s based her life on start crumbling as fast as her future, will she find the courage to trust, both herself and the prince she’s fallen in love with?

My Review
I enjoyed this book very much. It was a present day story with a fairy tale feel to it. I found myself egrossed in the story and wished it would not end. I enjoyed getting to know Mackenna. She was fun and full of depth. I felt like she was someone I could get to know. I enjoyed reading about the relationships she had with the different people in the castle. Each one had an impact on Mackenna’s life and the future she would have. Hannah Curie weaves gospel truth throughout the story. I think the reader along with Mackenna can learn valuable truths. The only thing I didn’t like was that it ended fairly quickly. There wasn’t any loose ends and I was glad about that. I would have wished to find out more about what happened afterwards. I really hope there is a sequel. I can’t give any more away so you’ll just have to read it. Its a great love story.
I recommend this story to my family and friends.
I received this book from the publisher to read and give my honest review. All thoughts are my own.
