A forbidden love story with animal antics to upset the normal order of things! (Or, a Cinderella story with a difference…)
Val Muffet is a Cit—a rich, well-educated, beautifully-mannered man, but definitely not one of the ton, despite being invited to the Trengrouse Ball.
Lady Kerenza Trengrouse’s family is amongst the great and the good of the land, and she expects to marry a lord. An earl, at least!
What could bring these two to care about each other? Enter Genevieve, the lost, forlorn but definitely challenging baboon, given to the Muffets by the Prince Regent himself.
Genevieve is not invited to the ball, but she comes anyway, and life will never be the same again for Val or Kerenza!
This story was first published in the anthology The Regent’s Menagerie, Volume 1.
