FOR THE BLAZEKEEPER OF BOWMORE HOUSE

"Like a prism spun in front of a window, this novel refracts a beloved tale in a dazzling new light. Funny and tender, feisty, spicy, and cinematic, The Blazekeeper of Bowmore House is both enchanting and empowering."

Jenna Blum, New York Times bestselling author of "Those Who Save Us" and "Murder your Darlings"

"Elizabeth de Veer's Cinderella retelling is a complex story full of tragic beginnings, mistaken identity, and magic. de Veer creates a world where an ordinary girl unravels family secrets with shocking consequences. A must read for anyone who loves Cinderella (and for those who don't!)."

–E.D. Hackett, author of "About Three Women"

"Endearing and richly imagined, The Blazekeeper of Bowmore House shines as a Cinderella story full of heart, wit, and satisfying twists. Elizabeth de Veer brings to life an intricate backstory of the peril that led to Cinder’s lowly life as a sweeper of ashes while simultaneously bestowing compelling texture to the characters of Cinder’s commonly villainized step-mother and step-sisters."

— Meghan Perry, author of "Water Finds a Way"

“Long before the arrival of the pumpkin carriage and glass slippers, readers will enjoy watching Cinder bloom into a young woman empowered to chase a different destiny–all against the backdrop of wind-lashed cliffs and a kingdom whose tenuous line of royal succession infuses the plot with urgency. In these pages threaded with magic and mystery, de Veer delivers more than a fairytale romance, but a heart-warming story that reminds us that small sparks of human goodness can be nourished into greater fires."
