This book is boring. Not that the writing was bad or anything, and the characters are quite likable. But after about 100 pages or so, there's barely any conflict to make a story, and the heroine seems to be too self-assured to fit the Cinderella image. There's also a lack of sense of place that really bothered me, since I live in the DC area and you can hardly tell that's where the story is set.

A "rough around the edges" ranch owner from Montana heads to Washington D.C. to charm school. Entertaining, fast read.

I thought the story was slow in the firast few chapters. About midway through it picks up and gets very interesting.

To bail her sister out of a tough spot, Darby agrees to take her place escorting her father's business associate around Washington, DC. Darby, however is a Montana rancher who's been estranged from her father and Washington society for many years. So her sister sends her to Glass Slipper, Inc. for a major makeover so she will fit in.

Shane Morgan is heir to a very large empire and is in Washington to reluctantly claim his legacy as his grandmother has just passed away. Shane is an adventurer who also cut himself off from high society many years ago.

Darby and Shane meet in the limo on the way to Glass Slipper, Inc., share a smoldering kiss and from that point the sparks fly! The dressing room scene will leave you "glowing".

Add in the fairy godmothers, Darby's flaky sister and their father's hot business associate who isn't quite what he seems and you have a story that will keep you laughing and hoping that Cinderella and her Prince Charming will live happily ever after.

I am in the process of reading all the books by this author. I like her style. She never bores. Some are sprightlier than others but they have more to offer than the usual
love story. I like her characters , I can easily care what happens to them. I am now reading Catch Me if You Can by this author and enjoying it.

Don't give up on this book! It starts out a little slow, but midway through it really picks up. An enjoyable read!

This was the first book I read in this "series" and as soon as I finished I had to keep reading. Loved the story and the godmothers.
