Title: Violet Eyes
Author: Debbie Viguié
Pages: 195
Series: Once Upon a Time is Timeless
Retelling: The Princess and the Pea
Summing it up: When
a storm brings the dashing Prince Richard to her family's farm, Violet
falls in love at first sight. Richard also gives Violet his heart, but
he knows his marriage is destined to be an affair of state, not of
passion. For the king and queen have devised a contest to determine who
will win their son's hand in marriage.
To
be reunited with her prince, Violet must compete against princesses
from across the land. It will take all of her wits -- and a little help
from an unexpected source -- if Violet is to demonstrate the depth of
her character and become Richard's bride.
Reason I Decided to Read it: Fairy tale based and I needed something short to read. :P
The Good:
It was a sweet little story. I like how strong Prince Richard is and I
like Violet’s character. It has some twists which I also like. The
challenges in this are interesting.
The Bad: I think the princesses should have been more catty; most of them seemed too nice.
The Over-All: It’s a sweet little story, good if you have a couple hours to kill.
Other: Just a few kisses.
Rated: 4.5/5.
