    About this audiobook

    Some things stepsisters never forget.

    Now that Kate Allen knows about her family's unique connection to a fairy tale, she sets her sights on finding the magical glass slippers. The Kolodenkos claim Cinderella's shoes have been lost to the family, but Kate is convinced she knows where they are. Or at least, who might know where they are.

    With her dad still missing, Kate could use a pair of shoes with the power to reunite loved ones. But to find the famous glass slippers, she'll have to get around the tight-lipped Kolodenko family and travel to post WWII Poland.

    As official keeper of the wardrobe for Cinderella's heirlooms, she's learning that balancing alliances between Cinderella's heirs and the stepsister's descendants may cost her more than she's willing to give up.

    Can she stop a family feud that has lasted for centuries?

    Find out now in this exciting follow-up to the novel Cinderella's Dress.

      Loved it. But, don’t like the we go back in time instead of forward. I wanted more of Johnny and Kate. More of Josie, more of Kates parents being reunited. More of Floyd and Nessa ??‍♀️
