Legacy of Glass: A Cinderella Tale (Kingdoms of Legacy)

The kingdom of Sovar’s Legacy demands balls and glass slippers, and the royal family are happy to oblige. They’ve been finding ways to contain and control the Legacy’s force for generations. Until it comes time for Crown Prince Julius to choose a bride.

Olivia traveled to the capital to work in her aunt and uncle’s business, not to clean their house. But she isn’t going to miss Sovar’s famed annual ball. Anyone is allowed to attend as long as they meet a single condition—they must dance in a pair of the glass slippers that have made Sovar famous. Thankfully Olivia’s only friend is willing to lend her a pair, and the prince even chooses her for a dance. It would be a dream come true if he weren’t so irritating.

Julius is willing to go along with his parent’s choice of bride because he knows his duty to his kingdom. But instead he ends up ensnared by the Legacy along with Olivia. They should be working together to escape, but Olivia is the most infuriating young woman he’s ever met. She’s uninterested in protocol or listening to Julius, and instead of escaping the Legacy, she’s obsessed with saving her friend. Thank goodness duty requires him to cut her out of his life.

But as they’re forced to spend more time together, Julius starts to wonder if Olivia might be seeing something he missed. If so, his duty to his kingdom matters more than ever. But what if his heart is becoming more interested in the infuriating girl at his side than in duty? What if the Legacy’s trap is exactly where he wants to be?

Enter a world where tales of the past shape the enchanted landscape—where glass can bend like a slipper and picking a rose courts danger. A world where the inhabitants must overcome the fabled Legacies as they find romance, adventure, and friendship.

Note, this series is comprised of interconnected stand-alones. However, for greatest enjoyment, it is recommended to read them in order.
