Princess Danielle's life in the fairy-tale land of Fenmore Falls has been overshadowed by a secret bargain with a wizard - a bargain that allowed her to be born. At the royal ball the night before her sixteenth birthday, a shocking comment by a stranger forces Danielle's father, the king, to tell her the details of the curse. Trying to protect her, he sends her through a magic door to a peculiar place called Idaho. Instead of a castle and horse-drawn carriages, Danielle's new world has cars and trucks, and a school named Shelley High. Taken in by Dorothy, a woman who knows Danielle's true identity, the princess-in-hiding struggles to live like an average teenager. She quickly becomes friends with Dorothy's daughter, Abby, and finds herself drawn to their cute neighbor, Nate. As time passes, Danielle realizes how nice it is to be known for herself, rather than as a princess. But suddenly the curse returns with a vengeance and so do her enemies. In order to survive, she must rely on her new friends, as well as some old ones from Fenmore Falls. Through it all, she discovers her inner strength and the power of true love.

Over the years, a woman has brought her food and tells her that she must remain in the small room for her safety. Rapunzel doesn't remember much about the night she was taken from the castle all those years ago, but she does recollect the same woman rescuing her from an evil man who had come into her bedchamber with a knife.

She longed for the day she could be free from the tower. Snow White grows accustomed to her temporary home in Idaho. She grows close to one of the 7 brothers and confides in him about her long lost cousin. He recollects a memory he has of an abandoned house he used to walk by when he heard a girl crying.

Rescuing Rapunzel isn't that easy because unexpected challenges face them. The newfound group must track down the real threat to the princesses and distinguish it. Otherwise, someone could get hurt or even killed.

Chancing a closer look, I placed one foot on a packed-dirt floor of the kitchen. My other foot followed. I looked back at Cinderella - I mean Gabriella - who watched from the other side of the miraculous door. Behind her, I could still see the stacks of boxes in my grandmother's attic. Gazing into reality while standing in a fantasy was a pretty weird sensation. Then, without warning, the door began to close. I scrambled to grab it, but something seemed to force it shut. Perhaps Gabriella, the supposedly sweet angel, had closed the door herself. "Gabriella! Help me!" Seventeen-year-old Brinlee is a modern girl living in Idaho. When she discovers a secret portal in her attic bedroom, she accidentally swaps places with the main character from her favorite fairy tale, Cinderella. Lost in Cinderella's world, Brinlee threatens to ruin one of the world's greatest love stories. New mysteries surround the characters of the beloved tale, and Brinlee is determined to uncover the secrets. Once she entangles herself in the affairs of Cinderella's family and meets not one but two dashing men, can she keep this celebrated romance on track? You'll love this fun reinvention of the classic Cinderella story.
