Description

The Once Upon a Time series continues with this unforgettable retelling of the fairy tale of Snow White.

The Duchess Jessica’s childhood began with the tragedy of her mother’s death. Her father, heartbroken at the loss of his beloved wife, cannot bear to raise the child. Largely ignored, Jessica spends the first eleven years of her life running free on the family estate, cared for only by the servants.

But her independence ends when her father decides to remarry. At first her new stepmother just seems overly strict. But as Jessica grows into a beautiful young woman, it becomes clear that her stepmother is also wildly—and murderously—jealous of her.

Determined to escape, Jessica flees to London under the name of Snow and falls in love with an odd band of outcasts who accept her into their makeshift family. But when her stepmother appears in the city, repentant and seeking her forgiveness, Jessica will have to decide whom to trust...with her life.
