Cinderella’s story takes a different turn

In this reimagining of Cinderella, the missing glass slipper never settles the question of the mysterious guest at the ball. Seeking work at the palace as a seamstress, Cinderella is drawn into court intrigue involving the king and prince, while prejudice against fairies reaches her own Fairy Godmother. The familiar fairy-tale framework thus opens onto questions of belonging, loyalty, and power, with Cinderella navigating both a changed path to the palace and a threat to the kingdom. Part of a series that reimagines Disney films, the book builds its alternate version around what might follow when the slipper is never tried on.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in fairy-tale adaptations.
  • Readers who enjoy alternate versions of Cinderella and Disney-inspired stories.
  • Readers interested in palace intrigue, fairy prejudice, and questions of loyalty.

Book overview

What if Cinderella never tried on the glass slipper? Now in a deluxe paperback edition featuring gorgeous printed edges! Fall in love with this tale inspired by Cinderella, from the New York Times bestselling series that reimagines beloved Disney films.

Unable to prove that she's the famous missing "princess" that stole the prince's heart at the recent ball, and unable to bear life under Lady Tremaine any longer, Cinderella attempts a fresh start, looking for work at the palace as a seamstress. But when the Grand Duke appoints her to serve under the king's visiting sister, Cinderella becomes witness to a grand conspiracy to take the king--and the prince--out of power, as well as a longstanding prejudice against fairies, including Cinderella's own Fairy Godmother. Faced with questions of love and loyalty to the kingdom, Cinderella must find a way to stop the villains of past and present . . . before it's too late.
