Princess of the Midnight Ball is intriguing from start to finish. It is a wonderful book and I loved it! It's a very well done retelling of The 12 Dancing Princesses. It has action, adventure, romance,
secrets, and just about everything else you would want in a book!
If you haven't read this, do! It is a fabulous book!
