Publisher Description

What if Cinderella was the wicked one, and manipulated her kind, loving stepmother and stepsisters?


Is being a handsome, charming prince really as effortless and trouble-free as it seems?


Would you be alarmed if you realized that the beautiful red shoes you’re admiring change their appearance to appeal to whoever is looking at them?


And speaking of shoes, how did Cinderella manage to dance in glass slippers without them breaking and slicing her feet to shreds?


Innocence and Deceit, the second volume in the Ever After Fairy Tales anthology series, contains fourteen fairy tales retold, reimagined, and reinvented.


Enter the magical, unpredictable, wonderful world of fairy tales!
