Cinder & Glass reimagines the Cinderella story at the court of Louis XIV, the Sun King. Instead of a magical godmother, the heroine must navigate real court politics, class divisions, and the dangerous glitter of Versailles on her way to the prince’s ball.
Melissa De La Cruz brings historical detail to the fairy tale, grounding the story in 17th-century France while keeping the romantic heart of the original. The series continues with Snow & Poison, which transplants Snow White into a similar French courtly setting.
The books offer fairy tale fans a fresh take on beloved stories, combining De La Cruz’s romantic storytelling with rich historical atmosphere.
