Locked away in the seclusion of the Terem Apartments, the Romanov Tsarevnas were no threat to the crown. Yet the same Romanov blood flowed through their veins, and they weren’t so easily forgotten - one of them ruled Russia for seven years. Maria Alekseyevna writes her deepest thoughts in her diary, hides away to read, and has a forbidden love that lives in her secret script. Natalya Alekseyevna has dedicated her life to her sister, Anna Alekseyevna, who suffers from a condition that claimed her brother, Tsar Feodor Alexeyevich.

Usual story with a nice tone
This little story was very enjoyable in its form. The performance was spectacular, my 8yo was listening like life depends on it. The story is rather known, a young simple hero (with no parents) saves the day and marries the princess and they live hapylly ever after... but the princess is cool, marries him consentually and is strong. The resolving event in the end is also a success thanks to the joined forces of the whole kingdom and not just the victory of one chosen person.
Overall, it was very well executed, very cute and genuine.

A simple tale, in fairytale form
Yes, a simple true love versus royal duty type tale.
However, I cannot see overlooking murder as a good thing, especially a king, and father, but there's a message in there somewhere.

Great voice and great for kids!
This is a fun kids story! It's under an hour and the voice was great! The story is isn't an original for an adult but I did enjoy reading a classing storyline- they're classic for a reason. This is perfect for kids. A princess doesn't want to mary the evil Duke and Donnie, the hero, is there to save the day. It has a medieval type setting and they produce wine, hence the grape names and title! Overall it was a great listen!
