About this ebook
Prepare to be enthralled as Cinderella grapples with her inner demons, confronts the fractures threatening to tear her family apart, and faces her most daunting challenge yet—the weight of her own choices.
Transported to the year 1815, Cinderella stands at a crossroads, her heart troubled and her magical abilities in turmoil. In a defiant act, she refuses to aid in the defeat of Napoleon and his formidable army. Weary and shattered from her arduous exploits, she retreats to the solace of her home in America, clinging desperately to the dark magic that holds her captive. The consequences of her stubbornness reverberate through her marriage, driving Jeremiah to part ways with her in search of his own solace.
As Cinderella attempts to isolate herself from the world, a mysterious stranger appears, offering guidance through her darkest hour. With a glimmer of hope rekindled within her, she seizes an opportunity to rewrite the past. Little does she know that her actions will unleash a torrent of consequences, not only affecting her loved ones but also the fate of the world at large. While Jeremiah seeks refuge among a coven of witches at Mont Saint-Michel, the true repercussions of Cinderella's fateful decision come to light.
Caught in a tumultuous struggle between a haunting past and a bleak future, Cinderella and Jeremiah must unite to confront their intertwined destinies, regardless of the sacrifices demanded. Time is scarce, and the encroaching darkness threatens to consume all. Can Cinderella summon the strength to confront the shadows within her own soul and forge a path forward, guiding them away from the abyss that looms ahead?
