Betraying the most powerful man in New York wasn’t something I ever envisioned when I first started playing games with Winston Constantine. But he’s engaged in far more dangerous games than ours, and his enemies are out for blood.
Winston has my heart, the Morellis have incriminating photos, and I’m left with nothing except three stepbrothers who want to hurt me and a future in doubt. I knew Winston wouldn’t be my prince charming, but that didn’t stop me from falling for him.
After all, the slippers fit, and I let myself believe I’d be dancing with Winston forever.
Until too much truth comes to light.
Until I realize instead of ruling the board, I was just a pawn.
In the end, I have only one question. When his game with me is over, will I be able to pretend as if the glass slipper wasn’t a perfect fit?
My Review:
Ash never meant to let Winston down, she broke his trust and now she has to find a way to make things right again. But he is growing distant and Ash is not sure if he’ll ever return her feelings for him. She got swept up in a made up fairy tale where she imagined herself as the maid turned princess who perfectly fit into her prince charming’s dark world. Yet, no matter how much she really wants to fit in his world, she realizes that Winston gave her a fantasy not a reality. Their perfect world is about to shatter when his enemies are ready to destroy his reputation in the city where the Constantine name has the ultimate power. Nevertheless, Ash is ready to prove to everyone that she can stand next to someone like Winston and that she deserves to be with him.
Winston Constantine holds loyalty in high regard, so when he finds out that Ash betrayed his trust it completely crushed him. Another reason to remind him to keep his heart impenetrable. He learned his lesson once by letting someone get close to his heart and he can’t do that again no matter how much he wants Ash. Winston will have to put a distance between them before he starts to fall in love for the one person he can’t have. Yet, no matter how much distance he tries to put between them, Winston still cares about Ash and vows to keep protecting her from her terrible brothers. It would take a turn of events to reveal shocking secrets that will put their relationship on the line and he’ll have to decide if Ash is worth letting into his heart or not.
I’m so glad I found this trilogy, it truly kept getting better and better. As the last book in the trilogy, The Glass Slipper picks up right after the shocking climax in Prince Charming. Winston finds out that Ash has been playing him and he is hurt. He was starting to let himself believe that they could have a future together, but that completely changed after finding out of her betrayal. It’s now Ash that needs to fight for them if she wants to have a future with him. There is everything in this book, we get to find out more about Ash’s family and how essential they are in the story. Friends become enemies and the dynamic between the rest of the Constantine siblings are important to Ash and Winston. We also get a lot more steam between them and as they get closer, the more romantic the story gets. There were a few things that weren’t fully explained and I wonder if we are going to get some type of explanation in the other books in the series. I really thought the ending was going to end just like the actual Cinderella story, but the author gave us so much more. I fit the overall story and it was perfect for the characters. All in all, I am impressed with the overall trilogy from the gorgeous covers to the dark twist of the fairy tale story. I would highly recommend checking it out, I cannot wait to read more book by the author. You will not regret it!
