I really liked this Cinderella retelling. There were supernatural creatures which I love and I also liked how fast paced it was. Loupe is the servant with the evil stepsisters and stepmother. The family business was killing and skinning wolves. Loupe hated it because she was the one skinning them. She takes care of some wolf pups in the woods by her house and sometimes bathes in the river. She meets the prince there and he shows an interest in her and loves that she's so protective over the pups. When one of the pups gets lost she goes to the palace to ask the prince for help and this is where the story takes off. Price Etienne must find a cursed wolf in order to get his wolf back, and what he doesn't notice is that it was in front of him the whole time.I enjoyed the characters: Loupe, she was a tortured girl but Jennifer didn't elaborate that much on that which I appreciated. She was also wolf, which she really disliked and if her step family were to find out they'd kill her on the spot. She only wanted to be happy with a husband but she was sure that she couldn't find one since she was cursed.Etienne: This prince had two choices; either impregnate someone asap so that they're born wolf, or find a cursed wolf. So he chose to have a ball, where he can sniff out a specific wolf to marry.Etienne's parents, the King and Queen: I felt like they were such generous people, they cared about their kingdom and their people.4/5 Stars I really enjoyed it and recommend it to fairy tale retellings lovers, they always have an interesting twist. I liked the romance and the steamy scenes were good as well. If you like Cinderella and werewolves you'll like this one.
