This printed edition includes exclusive new material—a new epilogue and an essay written by the author. From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Ends With Us, a novella about the search for happily ever after.

Eighteen-year-old Daniel is disillusioned by love, giving him little reason to believe in fairy-tale endings. However, his perspective changes during a chance encounter in a pitch-dark closet, where he meets a mysterious girl who stumbles upon him quite by accident. In the darkness, they share a magical moment, professing their love under one condition: it will last only one hour, and it will be only make-believe. When their time together ends, the girl rushes off like Cinderella, leaving Daniel to wonder if their connection was genuine or merely the result of their make-believe game.

A year later, after enduring a bad relationship, Daniel's scepticism about love is shattered when he meets Six, a girl whose unique name is as striking as her personality. Despite this newfound hope, Daniel quickly realises that finding true love doesn't necessarily guarantee a happily ever after. Instead, it often brings new challenges and revelations.

As Daniel and Six's relationship evolves, they grapple with an unbearable secret from the past that threatens to jeopardise their chances of saving each other and finding happiness together. Will they overcome this looming obstacle or will it tear them apart?

Finding Cinderella is a heartwarming and evocative novella that explores the power of love, the importance of honesty, and the courage needed to face life's toughest truths. Colleen Hoover’s signature emotive storytelling promises readers a deeply moving experience with this captivating tale of romance and self-discovery.
