Delicious fun Observer

A sparkling escapist romance Daily Express

With shades of Pride and Prejudice

and The Count of Monte Cristo,

Laura Wood has penned a Cinderella story for the Bridgerton

generation.

Iris Grey’s childhood was idyllic… until her father remarried.

Iris’s new stepmother and two stepsisters were cold-hearted

schemers, and when her father dies in mysterious circumstances,

Iris knows that something is wrong. Far too spirited

to be forced into a life of servitude, she runs away to London.

When she crosses paths with handsome, clever and cold

Nicholas Wynter, Iris realises that this is her moment for

revenge. Together they plot the downfall of their enemies - but

the pair begin to find they have more in common than a desire for

justice.

Will their spark burn bright or will it be extinguished

in the flames of their ambition?

A fabulously fresh retelling of Cinderella with a heroine who

isn’t afraid to take her destiny into her own hands

Perfect for fans of Jane Austen

Laura Wood is the author of A Sky Painted Gold and Under

a Dancing Star
