Description
Years ago, Elle ― never call her Cinderella ― escaped her evil step family in order to build a new life for herself in Manhattan. Today, Elle’s awful past is a distant memory. In fact, Elle even attends West Lake Prep, an exclusive high school where regular humans mix with members of the Magicorum, such as fairies, shifters and witches. Although she still must live in hiding from her evil step family, Elle always has found ways to get whatever her heart desires.
That is, until Alec Le Charme. Sure, Alec is the heir to the Le Charme dynasty of high-end jewelers, but he's also kind, charismatic, and has a knee-melting smile.
Long story short, Elle has fallen for Alec, hard. Unfortunately, thanks to Elle’s evil step family, the Le Charme heir is absolutely off limits. In fact, if Elle and Alec so much as kiss, it could start a magical chain reaction that would end in powerful factions of witches and wizards going to war. As a result, Elle and Alec vow to stay friends, no matter what. Then West Lake Prep holds a masquerade ball. Identities get mixed up and forbidden kisses are finally shared.
Time for the Magicorum to go to war, and for Elle to confront her hidden past in ways she never thought possible.

Featured Reviews
A really fun and interesting retelling of one of my favorite novels. I had an enjoyable time reading this and it held my attention the entire way through that I finished it within the day! I enjoyed every page and thought that the plot/story was very unique. Would recommend to anyone!
As a science fiction and fantasy reader, I found much to enjoy in this book from a voice that is new to me. Christina Bauer creates an inviting world and turns the plot well from page to page. Recommended for a reading trip to another universe.
“First, homework. Then, jewel heist.”
Unique, magical, wondrous, fabulous.
Enchanted items that speak: violin, suit of armour.
“First, homework. Then, jewel heist.”
I quite frankly love everything about this book! Unique, magical, wondrous and fabulous, I’ve never read anything like it!
Whilst this is the fourth book in a line of fairytale retellings, you definitely don’t have to have read the previous books, though you will absolutely want to (like me!).
Strange creatures, strong characters and a gripping storyline - this is a must read! Based upon Cinderella, you’re left to wonder; who truly is the Queen of Hearts? Will Elle find her true love? How will her wicked stepmother affect her life?
Do yourself a favour and read this series!
