This is a fantastic read both for fans for the Disney tale and newcomers to the story of Cinderella! Each book in the Twisted Tale series has a ‘what if’ moment which spins off the narrative into a whole new original story and it’s such a delight to see the author’s take on what might have happened instead. Faced with questions of love and loyalty to the kingdom, Cinderella must find a way to stop the villains of past and present. 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. What if Cinderella never tried on the glass slipper? Unable to prove that she’s the missing princess, and unable to bear life under Lady Tremaine any longer, Cinderella attempts a fresh start, looking for work at the palace as a seamstress.
