Nell has rarely known anything of God, save the bitter words of scripture her cruel stepfamily hurls at her as she works to pay off the vast debts left by her father. Or the empty silences that always seem to follow her desperate prayers to Him.

Until the day she finds a mysterious man, beaten and left for dead in the river.

When Nell begins caring for the man who calls himself "Paul," binding up his wounded eyes and nursing him back to health, she little suspects that "Paul" is the King, or that he, and his love of the Lord, will open her eyes to the love of God, and change her life forever.

The classic tale of Cinderella is seamlessly interwoven with the parable of the Good Samaritan and the conversion of St. Paul in this inspiring tale of forgiveness, redemptive suffering, and the transformative power of love.
