Acerca de esta escucha
You can listen to this family-friendly story for free on your device with the Audible Stories Skill. Just say “Alexa, read me a nighttime story,” or “Alexa, read me a story” to hear more free genres.
In this short tale for fans of Cinderella and Bridgerton, Pearl’s ball gown may carry the whiff of mothballs, but her dance card for the duke’s ball is full…until she loses a shoe. In her enthusiasm, Pearl’s foot slides out of her too-big damask slipper in the middle of a dance and gets kicked around the ballroom to the amusement of the sophisticated guests. What is a spirited but clumsy heroine to do? Can her composure and good humor save her social dignity?
Lydia San Andres lives and writes in the tropics, where she can be found reading and making excuses to stay out of the heat. The New York Times praised her novel Compromised into a Scandalous Marriage as a “sweet, satisfying, utterly intoxicating historical romance.”

Historia
In this short, funny, sci-fi tale, every human being on Earth suddenly receives a specific superpower. Everyone, that is, except Dale.

His business takes off beyond his wildest dreams—at least, until he meets Brenda, his personal supervillain, the only person on the planet with a perfect superpalate.
