This is the third book in the Seven Kingdoms Series and is a Retelling of The Dirty Shepherdess. This was my first time reading anything based on this fairy tale and isn't a story I am familiar with but I did enjoy this book and it's characters. I also hadn't read any of the other books in this series yet and while I am sure I would have enjoyed certain aspects of this book more if I had it can be read as a standalone. I look forward to backtracking to read the previous books in this series.
I received a free copy of this book via StoryOrigin and am voluntarily leaving a review.
As princess, Clara never expected to be homeless.
Then something terrible happened at court.
A tragic, magical injury at court forces Princess Clara to flee through the dangerous King’s Forest alone.
At the mercy of a people she once trusted, with no money, skills, or protection, Clara must hide her identity. Luckily, she finds a job as a shepherdess for a family in the neighboring kingdom. But when her faery assistant finds her, she reveals a truth that will either bring Clara back to her family or put both their lives in peril.
*This short story has been previously published in the JL Anthology, A Bit of Magic. It is available here for the first time as a standalone.
