Publisher Description

Cinderella may be a duchess, but her life is in tatters. Orphaned, destitute, and living in a country recovering from a hostile takeover, Cinderella is desperate to save her lands and servants. She is so determined that when terrible taxes are placed upon her, she dons servants' clothes and works like a commoner.

Unfortunately, her sacrifices aren't enough, and she is given one season to pay off her debt. All seems lost, until Cinderella is befriended by the debonair Colonel Friedrich—a member of the Erlauf military and a citizen of the oppressing country that rules her homeland.

Though Friedrich shamelessly flirts with her and pesters her at all hours of the day, Cinderella wonders if he is more than he appears to be… and if together they could unite their lands against the bitterness and resentment that threatens to destroy them.

Cinderella and the Colonel is a fairy tale retelling of love, sacrifice, adventure, and magic. It is filled with humor, deception, and clean romance, and is part of the Timeless Fairy Tale series. The books in this series take place in the same world and can be read all together, or as individual, stand-alone books.
