ABOUT THE BOOK:

SOMETIMES FAIRY TALES CAN COME TRUE - EVEN FOR PLAIN, SHY SPINSTERS LIKE MISSY WRIGHT. NEITHER AS PRETTY AS COUSIN ALICIA NOR AS DOMINEERING AS MOTHER DRUSILLA, SHE SEEMS DOOMED TO A QUIET LIFE OF NEAR POVERTY AT MISSALONGHI, HER FAMILY'S PITIFULLY SMALL HOMESTEAD IN AUSTRALIA'S BLUE MOUNTAINS.

BUT IT'S A BRAND NEW CENTURY, THE TWENTIETH, A TIME FOR NEW THOUGHTS AND BOLD NEW ACTIONS. AND MISSY WRIGHT IS ABOUT TO SET EVERY SELF-RIGHTEOUS TONGUE IN THE TOWN OF BYRON WAGGING. BECAUSE SHE HAS JUST SET HER SIGHTS ON A MYSTERIOUS, MISTRUSTED AND UNSUSPECTING STRANGER, WHO JUST MIGHT BE PRINCE CHARMING IN DISGUISE
