- This is a spinoff of "Perception." (Perception is the better book, IMO)

- I'd considered giving everyone their own story but I just haven't found the time to do so. Also, I'm pretty pleased with the way this one turned out and I'm not sure if the others are necessary or even if there is an audience for them.

- Even until the very end, I did not know the end.

- The fairy tale retelling was my intent from the start--and this particular fairy tale.

Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

- I hope to do at least ONE bonus chapter for this book, if time permits.

- This is a first draft and I had to cut many scenes for pacing. After a few months, I hope to go back and add those scenes again, which may grow this by a few more chapters. (hopefully, they won't lag)

- Like Perception, the MC isn't named, which forces me into the First Person POV.

- This is my FIRST pure romance, followed by "The Hunchback's Reluctant Bride."

What did you think? Was there anything you thought should be cut or expanded on? Slowed down or sped up? Do let me know. I will start edits soon.

Be on the lookout for the bonus chapter. 😊😁
