"CINDERELLA'S DRESS was like a stroll through the 1940's with a magical twist and a sprinkling of fashion. Highly recommend for all in need of a happily ever after."

On the home front in 1944, Kate wants to do her part for the war effort. She'd prefer filling in for the window dressers at the New York department store where she works, but her mother insists on sending her to audition for roles she never gets.

When relatives arrive from war-torn Poland with a mysterious steamer trunk and an even more mysterious story, her life is about to hit center stage.

Kate's aunt claims she is the keeper of the wardrobe for Cinderella's familyâ??the real Cinderella. Her responsibility is to keep the dress safe and now she wants Kate's help. But the war has taken a toll on Kate's aunt and nothing is as it seems.

Navigating family and first love is never easy. Kate will have to uncover layers of family secrets as her own secrets stack up.

Will she get to the truth before it's forgotten?

If you like the nostalgia of historical novels and the sweet romance of fairytale retellings, then you'll love this continuation of the Cinderella story. Pick it up today.

What is the reading order?

The Cinderella books go together, but the other Fairy-tale Inheritance Series books can be read in any order as stand-alone novels. If you'd like a reading order, you can follow this one:

Cinderella's Dress

This has been the first historical fiction read I read in awhile and I really enjoyed it. I found this book to the prefect mix between historical fiction and also some magic elements. I really loved the formate of this book but struggled to know how much time had pass in general. I also liked the cast dynamics and found it to a quick read. I also liked how this book showed a young girl life and it was compelling read. I really am excited to dive into the sequel! ( )

This book has reawakened my royal fever. Seriously we just had a charity book sale and I got two royal biographies. I love the idea that Cinderella was based on a real royal family. The writing style made this so easy to read. I would love it if this became a series. ( )

Sweet and quiet story that's not quite a fairytale retelling so much as a slight mystery with fairytale allusions. I liked the characters, but it was slow enough plot-wise that I don't think I'll read the next story. ( )

What if fairy tales were real? What if Cinderella really existed and her famous dresses had to be hidden and kept out of the hands of the evil stepsisters? And what if they eventually found their way from Poland to NYC in the 1940s? Slayton’s writing is vivid and her plot makes perfect sense. This is a wholesome story about true love, belief, and family. There are three more books in the series. 👗👗👗👗👗 ( )
