Rosella is an orphan living with
her relatives, an aunt and uncle who are the Queen and King of the land. The
Queen is a Sorceress and teaches Rosella things about sorcery though the Queen
uses her knowledge for evil and Rosella uses her knowledge for good. When
Prince Antonio from a different land is captured and his blood is meant to cure
the King of an illness, he and Rosella fall in love and plan to escape because
every prince and princess deserves their Happily Ever After.
I had some friends commenting on
this story, so I decided to see what the fuss was about. My review pertains
only to the story and not what caused all the comments behind the scenes.
This is a short story, a quick
read and it’s free on Goodreads. The concept is interesting, but the execution
needs work. The characters could use some depth and some filling out in
personality and the grammar needs polishing. This is a rough gem that some good
polishing and editing would make shine.
*The cover art could use some tweaking, too. Rosella is
supposed to be good, but the picture makes her look evil.
