In a kingdom where magic is highly prized, the king cannot ignore rumors
of a girl who claims she can spin straw into gold. When the king locks
Millie alone in a room with spindle and straw, she's certain she's about
to pay a fatal price for her father's lie. Just when she thinks all hope
is lost, a mysterious little man appears and offers to complete the task
for a small price. Desperate, Millie agrees to the simple, but odd,
deal. So begins Millie's dazzling rise from simple miller's daughter to
the queen her kingdom celebrates. Years later, Millie's deal with the
mysterious little man is all but forgotten, until the birth of her first
child brings his return. Now, Millie must scramble to find a way out of
her deal before the king discovers the truth and she loses her son, and
the new life that she's built, forever. Lies of Golden Straw is the
second installment in the End of Ever After companion series that
rewrites classic tales of happily ever after.
