The listing, goose chase by Patrice Kindl has ended.
It starts when Alexandria, an orphaned goose girl, offers some of her precious bread and water to a hungry old woman. The woman just happens to be a witch in disguise, and poof! Alexandria is suddenly heartstoppingly beautiful.
Gold dust showers to the ground when she brushes her hair andher tears turn to diamonds. A cruel king and
prince are fighting for her hand and lock her in a tower for "safe" keeping.
How she wishes she were a plain, poor goose girl again
