Rapunzel: Faerie Tale Collection, #10

By Jenni James

A kidnapped girl faces insurmountable odds . . .

On Rapunzel’s sixteenth birthday, her parents are turned to stone by the evil witch, Lady Vactryne, and the girl is taken to be forever hidden away in a tower. The young princess is afraid and all alone, and as the months pass by and her attempts to escape become more desperate, she begins to lose hope that anyone will come to save her.

Prince Jonathan of Balligyrn has loved Rapunzel since they were children and has vowed to battle the witch, bring Rapunzel back, and restore her kingdom, no matter the cost. It has been years since he last saw her and asked her to wait for him to return from school. Now Jonathan only hopes he is not too late.

The cunning witch has other plans for them both, one that does not involve losing her dreams to mere fools. Who will win—the woman bent on revenge, or the young girl determined to overcome it all?

Reviews for Rapunzel

[Chelsea · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This was an interesting retelling of Rapunzel with great characters and I loved the beginning when her and the prince were children. They were so cute together. This book did get more serious in the middle but has a happy ending with an epilogue to tell about their future. I plan to read more Fairy Tale Retellings by Jenni James in the future.
