They say her voice was once bewitching to all who heard it. She was like a siren luring sailors to their deaths on quiet nights. . .
Those are just rumours that once were, truth be told the youngest daughter of the Count could not even speak. Erica's voice had long been lost in her childhood years, disappearing like a whisper in the wind soon to be forgotten.
She too disappeared with it, fading into the background, outshined by her talented siblings. The harder she tried to regain her worth, the more she was ignored. Yet one chance encounter changes everything.

Obviously found this book on wattpad. I was so into and then I got to chapter 56 and ALL THE CHAPTERS WERE GONE AFTER THAT so I had to buy it on Kindle. It’s a cute but rather shorts story that I finished in a good 5 hours. However I am quite the reader so it would averagely take longer. I loved the characters and our girl Erica. It did keep me captivated as it was a slower plot to the love story but I love it nevertheless.
Absolutely adore this book. Its like cinderella with a sinister plot and such a good book for anyone who loved Disney growing up and wants something similar but still an amazing read that keeps you on the edge of your seat. No idea how many times ive read this first on Wattpad and now on kindle - would definitely recommend to anyone.
