Basham has done it again! At 3% in, I was totally hooked on James and
Stella’s story, which is loosely based on the story of Cinderella. I
loved how Stella literally saved the day when her and James first met!
That one scene, and the the conversation right after, is written so well
that you immediately fall in love with both Stella and James.
Speaking
of James, he is just so...dare I say it?...charming. Sorry! I couldn’t
resist, but he is! He is so nice, has a great sense of humor, and never
lets Stella down. Stella is his perfect match! She is sweet,
artistically talented - I really want to see her illustrations and
handmade ornaments!- and brave and I love how she told the story of
Cinderella to James’ sister!
This
is the first story in the Finding Ever After compilation, which also
includes stories written by Rachel McMillan, Ashley Clark, and Betsy St.
Amant.
