4.0

In this charming retelling of the Cinderella tale, everything you thought you knew about Cinderella and fairy tales is upturned. What is ugly? Who is the step-sister? What is happily-ever-after?

Listed as the first of the Kendra chronicles, the story centers around Emma, a young girl whose life has been turned upside-down with her step-father's daughter moving in after the tragic death of his first wife. Lisette, the step-sister, is pretty with a tragic past, so of-course everyone loves her best. Is it so wrong that Emma allows her mother to treat Lisette as their personal maid? Especially after Lisette ruined Emma's relationship with her father and stole her boyfriend?

Emma then learns that Kendra, her school-mate is a real-life witch. By enlisting Kendra's help, can Emma obtain her happily-ever-after? And what is that anyway?
