Once Upon a Marigold by Jean Ferris




I thought this was a cute little happily ever after story. 

Christian, the commoner, (is he really?) is in love with Princess Marigold. He was raised by a troll and now wishes to pursue the girl of his dreams. But you know royalty-wicked queens, arranged marriages...good luck Christian!

I've been such a slacker! I missed great books on your blog since I haven't been blogging!

This book sounds right up our ally! The other day, Sunshine was asking why a princess could only marry a prince. Perhaps this book will put a better spin on that idea!
