Mystery at the Midnight BallA Cinderella Fairy Tale
One night behind a mask. One prince from her past. One dance that changes everything . . .
After bidding farewell to Prince Alexander eight years ago, Ellie never thought their paths would cross again. After all, they lived in separate worlds: he was a prince, and she was a humble servant. Surely it was better to leave their old friendship in the past and accept her dreary fate.
But when she impulsively dons a mask to catch a better glimpse of the ball, their worlds collide, and a mystery at the palace soon pulls them even closer together. Drawn into the intrigue, Ellie must find the traitor lurking in the castle’s shadows before all hope of peace is lost—and before she completely loses her heart.
