In this retelling of a classic tale, Mariette struggles through life with a stepmother that hates her. When she is whisked away at the prince's ball, she begins to believe that her life is going to change-that is until the prince discovers that her slipper is a perfect fit for her stepsister. 
Fighting the urge to confess her secret, Mariette and her family move into the prince's castle, where old friends-and fiancés-are reunited. 
Note on Setting: This takes place in a kind of fictional France (hence many of the names, though they speak English). 
Postscript: "Lady" is a title given to woman married to a man with an estate, much like "Queen" is given to a woman married to a man with a castle. "Mistress" is given to a woman yet to inherit an estate, though of high-class breed (one would not refer to a beggar or maid as 'Mistress'). Monsieur (pronounced Mi-syur, despite the spelling) is a title given to a man that has yet to or has inherited an estate.

#26 in Fantasy ~ In six months, Cinderella will be free. At nineteen, she comes into her inheritance and will be rid of her wretched stepfamily. All she has to do is: Behave: (to a point) Do as she's told: (for the most part) Stay out of sight: (well, her stepmother doesn't need to know her closest friend is the personal attendant to the Crown Prince) For the most part, Cinderella does as she's told... until a royal ball. And with that... comes a secret. She has no idea what that secret might be but Cinderella knows there's something there. Something hidden by her Stepmother that sits below a tangled web of lies that span years. And Cinderella is going to find out what it is - less she gets caught in that web like those who went before her. ~~~~~~~ Far, Far Away Trilogy: Reading Order: Dancing on Glass Dancing on Ice TBA ~~~~ Cover image: Lisa Keene
