Once a year, Rory gets to escape dreary village life and the strict care of her three dumpy godmothers and visit her Aunt for her birthday. For one week of the year, Rory gets to experience life as a princess when she visits Leah, her new husband, King Hubert and his son, Prince Phillip.

A spirited young village girl, a handsome prince, a cup of poison and a witch with a grudge against their family.
