Cinders & Fae: A Retelling of Cinderella

July 15, 2019 By eReader Nation

What really happened after the ball?

After Trystan declared me his bride-to-be at the royal ball, I thought my worries were over. But now my bloodline is in question and marriage to my wolf fiancé is forbidden by the Fae Queen unless I pull off an impossible feat of magic. If we run, we’ll die. If I fail, she’ll marry my lover to someone else–my mother! But no one could perform the unthinkable task she’s demanding…could they?

I’ve almost given up when I have a bright idea–or rather, a dark one. Something which doesn’t involve Fae light, but black magic. If it works, the queen can’t deny our wedding and I won’t lose the two people I love most. And if it doesn’t, my brilliant solution will kill me. $0.99 on Kindle
