I'm not Cinderella. Confused, right? I bet you it's the not part that confuses you. It's all true though. I am really not Cinderella. Sure, there was a girl who was at the masquerade ball that all of the guys fell for and she ran off when it was midnight - and don't forget she also lost her shoe - but that wasn't me. You know the story don't you? Prince Charming -who isn't even close to charming, in my opinion- goes searching for this 'Cinderella' across the stupid kingdom. But in this 'fairytale' it's different. The prince won't end up finding the real Cinderella. He'll be finding me. Just because Cinderella and I are the same shoe size and I happen to own the exact same pair of glass slippers...

Not Your Princess
Loosely inspired by the fairy tale of Cinderella, Not Your Princess plays on the scenario where neither the prince nor the future princess attends the ball. Aschleigh Baker did not have a fairy godmother to rescue her when she was prohibited from attending the prince's engagement ball. No one was there to wave a magic wand and right all of the wrongs done unto her. Instead, she ended up going to the town's tavern to miserably celebrate her last night of freedom before she is forced into marrying her family's blackmailer, who knows about her secret imperviousness to fire. Prince Augustus never wanted to be forced into an arranged marriage with a stranger. Thus, on the night of his engagement ball, he finds himself visiting the nearest town's tavern to live one more day of freedom. There, he meets Asch and finds himself enchanted by her from the moment they first meet. Neither one of them was aware that missing the ball would lead to an accidental, irreversible marriage. Nor could they expect a person calling themselves the Priestess to set their sights on the new princess, intending to kill her for sins Asch is not aware of. As secrets are revealed and characters called into question, the accidental couple must learn to navigate the world with one another or risk losing more than memories of their wedding.Complete
