Welcome to the First day of the
Five Glass Slippers blog tour.
But before we get started here is a tantalizing
tidbit about the book as a whole:
ONE BELOVED STORY,
FIVE EXCITING WRITERS
A COLLECTION TO CHERISH
What happens when Cinderella is so painfully
shy that she cannot bear the idea of attending
the royal ball? Or when the slipper fits . . .
but on the wrong girl? What happens when
Cinderella is determined to oust an impostor prince
from her rightful throne? Or when she is a cendrillon
miner working from a space station orbiting a cthonian planet? What happens
when Cinderella, a humble housemaid, is sent with a message for a prisoner
trapped in a frightening fairy circus?
Here is Cinderella as you have never met her before, wearing glass slippers
and off on unforgettable adventures!
Available now in paperback and Kindle formats!
And during this tour The Five Glass Slippers collection will be on sale for only
$.99 in Kindle format for the duration (June 23-28) of the tour!
My Review of Five Glass Slippers
Five Glass Slippers from Rogglewood Press is a delightful mix of five
"Cinderella" stories. Gleaned from a contest that took place in the
second half of 2013. And the winning titles are:
WHAT EYES CAN SEE by Elizabeth Brown
BROKEN GLASS by Emma Clifton
THE WINDY SIDE OF CARE by Rachel Heffington
A CINDER’S TALE by Stephanie Ricker
THE MOON MASTER’S BALL by Clara Diane Thompson
With stories as varied as their titles the Cinderella thread can be found
throughout each story whether the story takes place in a traditional
setting or in a futuristic one. With unique twists each story will keep
you enraptured as these five authors weave their spells with the magic
of words.
A refused prince. A glass slipper mix-up. A prince who's throne is about
to be stolen. A mining colony. And a circus. There's a story sure to appeal
to everyone. Curl-up with a nice cup of tea and be prepared to be swept
away as 5 "Cinderella's" meet their prince!
I was provided a digital review copy of this book by the publisher in
exchange for my honest review.

Painfully shy Arella begs her stepmother
to let her stay home from the prince’s ball.
But kindly Duchess Germaine is determined
that her beautiful stepdaughter should be
presented at court along with her own two
daughters. So, dressed in a gorgeous gown
and a pair of heirloom slippers, Arella catches
the eye of the crown prince . . . and finds her
life suddenly far more complicated than she
ever desired.
About Broken Glass by Emma Clifton:
The slipper fits . . . but on the wrong girl!
Rosalind never once danced with Prince Marius
at the ball, for she is in love with his brother
Henry. If only Rosalind and Marius would stop
bickering long enough to invent a scheme, perhaps
the three of them can find the real mystery lady. But
they must work quickly, for dark deeds are afoot, and
the kingdom is poised on the brink of disaster.
About The Windy Side of Care by Rachel Heffington:
Alisandra is determined to have her rights.
She knows that she is the king’s secretly
dispossessed daughter, the true heir to the
throne. Prince Auguste is an impostor, and
if she plays her cards right, Alis will prove
it to the world! That is, if charming Auguste
doesn’t succeed in winning her heart before
she gets her chance . . .
About A Cinder’s Tale by Stephanie Ricker:
It’s a dangerous life, yet Elsa wouldn’t trade this
opportunity to work at Tremaine Station, mining
cendrillon from the seething surface of planet Aschen.
Nevertheless, when a famous deep space explorer and
his handsome son dock their starcraft at the space station,
Elsa finds herself dreaming of far galaxies beyond Aschen's
blistering heat. There is no time for dreaming, however,
when danger threatens the space station, and Elsa and her
fellow miners are tested to the limits of their courage.
About The Moon Master's Ball by Clara Diane Thompson:
After her terrifying experience there several
years ago, the one place young housemaid Tilly
longs to avoid is Bromley’s Circus. But when
kindly Lord Hollingberry begs her to deliver a
message to the mysterious Moon Master hidden
away among the circus dwellers, Tilly can’t
refuse . . . and finds herself ensnared in a web
of enchantment cast by the loathsome Mrs.
Carlisle and her beautiful goddaughter.
