Before the fairy tale.
Before Cinderella met her prince.
Before she ever put her foot into that glass slipper...
There was Esmerelda.
A fairy godmother living an isolated life in the mountains until a baby is left on her doorstep and changes everything.
This prequel novel answers fan questions from the novels Cinderella's Dress and Cinderella's Shoes. Since the prequel is filled with spoilers, you may want to read the other two books first, and then come back to this one to read the backstory of how Cinderella's dress and shoes become a legacy.
