"CINDERELLA'S DRESS was like a stroll through the 1940's with a magical twist and a sprinkling of fashion. Highly recommend for all in need of a happily ever after." On the home front in 1944, Kate wants to do her part for the war effort. She'd prefer filling in for the window dressers at the New York department store where she works, but her mother insists on sending her to audition for roles she never gets. When relatives arrive from war-torn Poland with a mysterious steamer trunk and an even more mysterious story, her life is about to hit center stage. Kate's elderly aunt claims she is the keeper of the wardrobe for Cinderella's family--the real Cinderella. Her responsibility is to keep the dress safe and now she wants Kate's help. But the war has taken a toll on Kate's aunt and nothing is as it seems. While navigating family and first love, Kate will have to uncover layers of family secrets as her own secrets stack up. Will she get to the truth before it's forgotten? If you like the magic and warmth of fairytale retellings, then you'll love this continuation of the Cinderella story. Start reading today.
