This was a good YA read. I am not a YA any more but I did enjoy the story line. It was about a young girl who thought of herself as the ugly stepsister who's ss always seemed to do the house work. Find out why close to the end of the story. But ss was dating the "one" she loved. This has part "Sixteen Candles" with a touch of "Breakfast Club" mixed in. And yes I still enjoy both movies. It's an easy read. Will look for more from this author.

Trinket had absolutely no trouble staying out of trouble for most of her life but since she's moved back home it all just seems to be tearing down her door. Of course, she'll readily admit that most of it centers around her cousin, Bitty.

Bitty knows no such thing. It's not her fault that she's being accused of murder, for the second time in less than a year. Nor was it Bitty's fault, that the corpse was shot at the funeral. Oh, and the food fight at the Diva meeting? Well, that just wasn't how it seemed...

Ugh, Trinket has her work cut out for her this time... Maybe she should find a hobby or a job so she's not quite so available when Bitty wants to investigate.

This book was awful with a A. Its sick and twisted. Dont waste your time reading this book. Its one thing to sleep with your stepbrother but its a whole other thing to sleep with your stepfather too.

I really enjoyed this storyline - it was different from all the other Stepbrother books I have read recently.  Instead of going to his parents for help, Cole tried to get out of his "situation" on his own.  "April" went after something she wanted - only to be surprised and humiliated.  It was so enjoyable to see Cole and Ava try to re-build their relationship.  Give it a try - it is a different stepbrother read.

Keira Whitley has returned! the Wicked Witch from Book One, "Match Play".....wanting to get her claws in Aaron again... poor Rainey.  I wanted to smack Keira in book one, thought she was a witch, and I still want to smack her. As she said herself, "I don't have a nice bone in my body." Only this time she has ammunition and support from Mom Donovan, Mom Whitley, et.al. When you read chapter 5 you'll see the ammunition she has to take Rainey down....makes you want to puke! Worthless people. DM introduces a new character, Roxie Reynolds, who sees through Keira and is "an alternative reality version of Keira" like two peas in a pod working together. Oh, remember hunky Evan, the man who slept with everyone, what an about face for him! A good quick read, fun, steamy sex, a good ending for Rainey, Aaron, Evan and Keira.  The only other thing I have to say is humph, what's wrong with JC Penney's...I shop there once and awhile!. I heard through the grapevine that book three, "Final Play" will be about Lucas, my favorite character, from book one.

Although story is quite shorter than expected, it's never boring. The story is good but quick pace. I recommend this if you like step siblings romance.

I was not a big fan of an older woman (the girl's mother for pete's sake) making a move on such a younger man.  Inappropriate and so disrespectful of her daughter.  Control yourself for goodness sake!!  There are so many other options that disrupting your own family with your lack of self restraint.

Astrid Honeywell has been managing the estate and the family brewery since she was a child. Unfortunately as a woman she isn't a legitimate heir and by rights the estate should be returned to the Duke of Montford. Her heroine, Astrid Honeywell, is "utterly, completely hideous, with ungodly eyes and horrible spots" (and that's quoting Cyril.) Yet by the end of the story, I loved them both dearly. Layer by layer, they become more complex, more insecure, and more human

At the beginning of this tale we find the now famous Brothers Grimm summoned to the estate of the Grande Dame (Jeanne Moreau). It seems her great great grandmother is one Danielle Du Barbarac whose portrait hangs in the Dames parlour and is the true Cinderella of the Grimm Brothers fairy tale. The Dame wishes to set the story straight, but before doing so she shows the Grimm Brothers a very ornate slipper that appears to be made of glass! Thus the Dames telling of Danielles story begins. The story from here follows the traditional storyline of wicked stepmother, a Baroness, played so well by Angelica Huston and with at least one bad stepsister while the other by the end reforms.  There is much more interaction between Danielle and her Prince (Dougray Scott) long before the Ball, she masquerading using her mothers name, the Comtesse Nicole de Lancret, in order to save a wrongly accused servant. As they continue to periodically meet or run into each other, Prince Henry is amazed, marvels, and is even schooled by Danielle which opens his eyes and his heart. Although she is nobility, due to her station as servant under her stepmother and because she feels for the common people Daniele never considers herself noble. Megan Dodds gives a great performance as the reformed step sister Marguerite who due to her love of food sometimes faces the distain of the Baroness, her mother. The story even interweaves an older Leonardo Da Vinci, who eventually paints Danielles portrait as a belated wedding present. This grand retelling of Cinderella makes it a real story involving real people rather than a mere fairy tale from a book.

This book is good. It has some cliffhangers. It is good to know that their big sister is stepping up and taking care of her twin brother and sister, because their mom is not there taking care of them. She is to busy running the streets. I enjoyed this book and look forward to reading part 2.
