Publisher's summary

In the forest of good and evil,

Strength is weakness and

Weakness is strengh.

It all depends on who the slipper fits.

Princess Ashleigh Charmaine-Anskelisa is the Glass Princess, ready to shatter with a whisper of wind. Born with a weak heart, the vulnerable beauty has no magical ability…or does she?

Something strange is happening to Ashleigh. Blackouts. Evil whispers. Immunity to fire. Turns out, she’s fated to play the part of Cinderella — but this time, the tale is twisted. The royal she’s supposed to enchant is the ruthless Saxon, a reincarnation of the realm’s most savage ruler…and he thinks Ashleigh is a reincarnation of his greatest enemy. He’s even fighting in a tournament to wed her stepsister.

As the stroke of midnight looms, will Ashleigh become the queen she’s prophesied to be, or lose everything she's come to love?

Loved it!

I loved every minute of this story! It definitely doesn't resemble Cinderella in any familiar way but it is a fun story from Enchantia that makes me crave the next installment!

A must read!!

All I can say is...I want more, Now!! I loved every minute of this fairytale and hate that it's over,for now. Action packed from the first chapter to the last. Never a dull moment. You'll be on the edge of your seat the entire time! I absolutely love Saxon, sorry Roth but you've been dethroned in this ladies heart 😉

loved it!

This is the first time I've heard James Fouhey, and I LOVE his voice. I'm about to go listen to anything else I can find by him.

Caitlin Kelly is strong as always 💪 ❤.

I liked The Glass Queen more than The Evil Queen. Saxon and Ashleigh were both compelling and interesting.

can't wait for the next one!!!

good read

I enjoyed book one more, but this was a good read and twist on yet another childhood fairytale. A lot spicer and action packed, by the happily ever after is still intact!

Great Story

I really enjoyed this. It took me a little bit (not long) to get into it, but it was worth it! I loved the twists and how it ended. I'm usually not a fan of male narrators, but this one was great and the female narrator was amazing. I cannot wait for the next book in the series!! So glad I came across these books and anxiously waiting for the next!

Lover of twisted fairytales? Read this!

I have read many versions of different classic fairytales and I think this is one of the best. It was so engaging I could barely stop listening. Character development is awesome. Don't miss this one you won't regret it.
