About the Book

Every day is the same for Cosette. Get up, clean, make breakfast, and meet her stepmère’s and stepsisters’ every demand.

That is, until an encounter with a fairy of the forest—or is she a witch?—and an invitation to a fête in honor of Monsieur Gautier promises Cosette’s life is about to become the beautiful fairy tale of her dreams.

Or so the story should go.

Except her fairy godmère demands a high price for her help, one Cosette isn’t willing to pay. Her stepsisters are as afraid of their mère as Cosette is. Can she truly leave them to their fate? And the handsome Monsieur Gautier hides a dreadful secret, one she’s desperate to know—if only she can get close enough.

Cosette is faced with a choice: Should she feign ignorance and accept her happily ever after? Or dig deeper to find what may be lurking beneath?

u201cThe Lost Slipper is a retelling of two fairy tales that could have easily been enough to carry the story on their own, but the addition of u2018Diamonds and Toadsu2019 to the Cinderella narrative brilliantly escalates the tension and increases our poor heroineu2019s suffering. A thrilling, emotional tale for anyone who ever thought, u2018Cinderella had it too easy.u2019u201d
– C.O. Bonham, author of Runaway Lyrics
u201cThe Lost Slipper is a short but satisfying read about grace and kindness when beset with cruelty, creatively combining two beloved fairy tales into a new, complex fable.u201d
– H.L. Burke, award-winning and bestselling author of over twenty eclectic fantasy novels
u201cAs someone who enjoys every Cinderella iteration Iu2019ve ever come across, The Lost Slipper blends my favorite familiar elements of the story with unique twistsu2014such as who the Fairy Godmother really is and the behavior of the stepsisters. With allusions that bring to mind Ever After, Ella Enchanted, and Into the Woods, readers will enjoy how Harper weaves this story and will be left wanting more!u201d
