This was a very interesting Retelling of Princess and the Pea. While this is a short story it manages to get do a really good job of telling this story with an engaging plot and interesting characters. I liked both Rachel and Prince Benjamin and was happy with how things worked out for them. I look forward to reading more from this series of short stories.
A desperate girl on a stormy night...
Rachel is searching for sanctuary from her abusive father, but finds herself a guest in the castle instead. Why does everyone assume she is important, and why do they insist that she sleep on an enormous mattress tower?
Can she unravel the mystery and find a happy ending, or will she be trapped in something even worse? See for yourself in this romantic retelling of The Princess and the Pea.
