Marie, the dutiful princess of Northhelm, chafes under the rigid protocol that governs her life. Then a growing darkness threatens the kingdom and uncovers the lie at the center of her whole life - a single pact that changes everything. Throwing off convention, she joins Rafe, a handsome, charming newcomer, on a quest to save her kingdom. Except he doesn't know she has a mission of her own - to discover the truth about her identity. Increasingly drawn to Rafe's strength and good humor, Marie is torn by her double purpose.

The mission: Put on a dress, pretend to be a lady, and infiltrate the academy of mages to steal a journal from the forbidden archives. The problem: I’m no mage and I’ve never worn a dress in my life. But it’s not like I have a choice. My bastard of an uncle basically sold me to a dangerously pretty nobleman, and they can’t pull off this heist without me. Unfortunately, once I fake my way through the entrance exam with a piece of hacked mage tech, and reach the floating kingdom of Reverie, my problems are only just beginning.

Clever and absorbing reimagining of fairy tales
The author is a very skillful writer, strong at character development and world building. She is clever and really fine at her art. The narrator is terrific, but I found the accent for Marie and William's kingdom to be distracting, taking me away from what was happening.
The Princess Pact: I don't love this as much as the predecessors in The Four Kingdoms, but still it is fine writing, an interesting world and richly wrought characters. Rumpelstiltskin was so creepy! Extra creepy. Rafe and Marie were not as compelling as other couples the author has developed. Marie's development is well-crafted, in the long run.
A Midwinter's Wedding: This was a full, enjoyable story, with appealing main characters and the usual fine plotting from the author. It was much better than the earlier novella in the series, for me. The winter theme was very well managed.
The Princess Game: Celeste/Aurora's story is well-conceived and written. Melanie Cellier is excellent at reimagining fairy tales and making them fascinating. The world of the Four Kingdoms is beautifully wrought. The plot twists added interest. It wasn't my favorite by the author, but a very strong entry.

Loved These!!!
I loved this whole series! This creative twist on classic fairy tales is delightful! I started listening with my local Library app and loved the first story so much I immediately went to purchase them in Audible. I have no doubt I’ll listen again and again.
I love that not only are they a fun story, they also teach a moral lesson. I feel comfortable letting my children listen to these with me. All of them, ages 9-20, enjoyed them as well.
I can’t wait too get started on the Beyond the Four Kingdoms series!!!
