📘Book Info
A small-town maid who is trying to live her dream. A playboy billionaire who needs a fake girlfriend. And a holiday gala that is about to make things complicated.
Ella Foster takes a job as a maid for a billionaire family. Her real goal – to finish her degree and start her own design firm. She hasn’t had it easy after the death of her father. Unlike her stepsisters, Ella has had to work for everything. But she’s determined to make her dreams come true. There’s just one small hiccup…the priceless vase she broke while cleaning the house of the richest family in town.
Chase Marino has never wanted for anything. While the world sees him as the playboy grandson of one of the most famous shoe designers in the world, he secretly wants to explore his own design dreams. He’s working on a plan to do just that once he takes over the family’s company. That is until his father gives him an ultimatum. Settle down and find a girlfriend or lose his birthright as CEO of the company. And to make matters worse, he has less than four weeks to do it.
Chase gives Ella an offer she can’t refuse – be his fake girlfriend for a month and he’ll hide the fact that she destroyed his mother’s favorite vase.
Ella’s determined to put up with the annoying Chase Marino so that her dreams aren’t dashed, but she soon learns there’s more to him than the tainted image she sees online. Could he be more prince charming than spoiled playboy? And can Chase keep himself from falling for the fairytale-loving woman who seems so familiar to him?
💭Our Thoughts
Fricking unalive me now - Such a fun read
I went in knowing this was a Cinder-type retelling and figured it would be a standard evil stepmother horrid step siblings prince saves the day
It really wasn't
Yeah it had all that as backstory but I felt the spotlight was on Ella and Chase - Yes I realize it's their romance, lol, I meant not a lot of angst and battles and woe is me
It was laughter, six degrees, and mmm mmm smexy
Ella was so infectious. Her belief in herself. The way she found the golden lining in almost every situation
And Chase was a knight in shining armor despite his tarnished reputation which IMO he didn't deserve
The characters and their BFFs were all a fantastical mix of quirky, caring, and magical
The solid storyline kept me engaged from the first page to the last
The shoe back story was unique I do have some inquiries though
I have all kinds of questions for Nonno and Greta
Very light angst- Ted the creep, Nancy the greedy
A fun, cutesy romance- they fit so perfectly
Blazing chemistry - holy hades
A solid read
