This book is a very loose Cinderella retelling meets the Bachelor. Cindy just graduated with a degree in fashion but no job prospects. Some family connections helps land her on Before Midnight, where she’ll be competing with other girls for the mystery suitor’s affection.
A cute twist on Cinderella. And I’m so glad that she loves her step mom and step sisters. When they were introduced I was afraid there would be something negative there, but their relationship is great.
Story is fairly predictable, but that’s what I’m looking for when I read this type of book.
