How many lives can one shoe change? A beautiful girl runs from the Crown Prince of Lorac at a ball, and a glass slipper is found on the palace steps in her wake. The king proclaims that the shoe will be tried on the foot of every girl in the kingdom in order to find her. Whoever fits the slipper will marry the prince and become a princess. But the only girl who fits the slipper is not the girl from the ball. Cindy, a soot-covered cinder girl, the only person in Lorac to fit the slipper is taken to the palace to meet the king and the prince. On their first meeting, she and Prince Adam take an instant disliking to one another. To their dismay, the king's proclamation is binding, and the prince and the cinder girl are forced into an engagement that neither of them wants. They now have one month to get to know one another before their engagement is formally announced, and their fates are sealed. Both Cindy and Prince Adam are determined to find a way out of their predicament. Soon, they are thrown into circumstances that force them to trust one another to survive. Unbeknownst to them, a spy working in the shadows of the palace, and the people he works for, pose a threat to not only them but possibly their entire kingdom as well. If the Slipper Fits is the classic tale of Cinderella as you've never seen it before, where fairy godmothers are a myth, dreams don't always come true, and people are more than they seem.
