I was in the mood for something light and innocent, so picked up this story by Margaret Widdemer, a favorite author of mine. I was so surprised and pleased to find that it includes my favorites from "Rose-Garden Husband", Allan and Phyllis Harrington, as major characters. It has delightful nods to fairy-tale lore along the way to young Joy Havenith coming into her true womanhood.
It is difficult to review this without giving away much of the story, but I do love the hero, and you will be sure to root for Joy's success at freedom the whole story.
If you've enjoyed L. M. Montgomery's "The Blue Castle" or Ruth Sawyer's "Seven Miles to Arden", you will probably enjoy this tale and its companion story.
