This very Cinderella-esque retelling was fun, but not my favorite of the series. Benedict, for as much as he disliked other people taking advantage of Sophie, seemed like he kinda was too. He's basically her employer (through his mother) and yet he keeps propositioning her after she's said no for reasons that make sense to her. The power dynamic made me a little uncomfortable in this one.
