About this listen

New York Times bestselling author Melissa de la Cruz pens a lush, swoon-worthy retelling of "Cinderella" set in lavish Versailles. Perfect for fans of Bridgerton and The Selection!

Cendrillon de Louvois was poised to be the most eligible maiden in all of France. But the death of her father, the king’s favorite advisor, has left Cendrillon at the will of her cruel stepmother and stepsisters.

Dubbed Lady Cinder by the court, Cendrillon is forced to become a servant to her new family. But when she attends the royal ball, she catches the eye of the handsome Prince Louis and his younger brother, Auguste.

Even though Cendrillon has an immediate aversion to Louis and a connection with Auguste, the only way to escape her stepmother is to compete with the other girls at court for the Prince’s hand.

As her stepmother’s cruelty grows, Cendrillon captures the prince’s heart . . . though her own heart belongs to Auguste. Cendrillon’s fate rests on one question: Can she bear losing the boy she loves in order to leave a life she hates?

your next must read

Cinder & Glass was one of my new favorite books. The twists and turns kept my attention and left me wanting to hear more. A mixture of The Selection and Cinderella with a dash of mean streak. I love the ending. hint... With not just one, but two marriages.

Great book! Perfect for middle school aged kids!

This is a perfect mix of Cinderella and the selection series. With its own twists making the story more eventful.

Narrator’s delivery intensifies heroine’s stupidity

I like fairy tale retellings, so I stuck this out. But the narrator’s dramatic delivery turned minor observations into earth shaking issues. Add to that Cendrillon’s inability to draw a logical conclusion, and I found myself frequently rolling my eyes as she seemed to simultaneously over and under react to everything. Still, I was amused enough to listen to the whole thing.
