Another good book. I have been doing well lately!!!!! Anyway, this book was quite good. It was by the same author of Just Ella and it kind of continued her story, in a small way. I really liked it, and thought the story line had a good twist to it... I was not expecting it, and am always glad when I don't expect things. I thought the main characters to be very strong, and good.... All in all a very good book.. I once again recommend it!!

Plot:

Cecilia knows that she is not just another peasant girl; she is actually the true princess, in hiding until the evil forces that killed her parents are vanquished. A commoner named Desmia is on the throne as a decoy.

As she gets older, Cecilia finds it harder to study statesmanship and palace protocol secretly at night and then pretend that she has nothing on her mind other than scrubbing the gruel stains out of her best apron by day.

Cecilia knows that it is time to take charge. Along with her best friend, Harper, she flees to the capital city, determined to reclaim her throne and face the danger head on.

When Harper and Cecilia reach the famed Palace of Mirrors, they discover complications: Princess Desmia believes an entirely different version of the story.
