5.0

I loved the first so much that I went right into this one and I am glad I did.

I get truly annoyed by the sheer amount of Cinderella retellings. And in the very beginning of this book I thought I’d be just as frustrated with this one, but it kept me on my toes and I couldn’t put it down. Despite the fact that I’d already taken my melatonin. Lol.

I truly thought this story was going to be the basic Cinderella ABC123 that I’m used to, but it twisted in ways I wasn’t expecting and that kept me interested. In fact, I don’t know how many times I asked myself ‘ugh, why are you letting her walk away?’ Or ‘seriously, that’s the choice you’re going to make?!’ And as frustrated as I got, that’s why I couldn’t put it down.

Like the first in the series, this is a five star book. The story is interesting and well written and the characters are full and honest. The steam factor is there. I have personally read much steamier books. But if you like a strong touch of gooey hotness then you’ll be very satisfied with this story. And frankly, the fact that it wasn’t all steam is a part of why it was so impossible to put down. The story was very entertaining.
