This week I'm featuring Ellie and the Prince by J.M. Stengl. This is a really cute and fun fairytale retelling. One of the things I like about it is that even though it's obviously set in a fantasy world there's a bit of a contemporary twist to it with modern conveniences and such.
About the Book
Enter the world of Faraway Castle and live the magic . . . and the romance!
Serving as Controller of Magical Creatures at the illustrious Faraway Castle resort, Ellie Calmer knows her place. She is a servant, and she has no business thinking about handsome Prince Omar, a regular visitor at the resort, much less talking to him!
But then a unicorn on the resort grounds attacks a party of riders, frightening the guests, and a band of young and adventurous nobles decide to hunt it down. Suddenly Ellie needs Omar's help. She knows something must be wrong to have driven the unicorn to such desperate extremes. Can she and Omar find the unicorn before it's too late? And will she somehow protect her heart against the irresistible attraction she feels for the kind and gentle prince?

Book Beginning
Ellie had just entered the castle lobby when her wristband pager sent a tingle of magic up her arm. She checked it and hurried over to Faraway Castle Resort's front desk. "I'm here, Sten. What's going on?"

"Would you like us to delay the hunting party?" Miria asked. "The dwarfs will help us, I know."
