I think this is the first I’ve read from this author, and it definitely won’t be the last. I found it to be an easy read that quickly captivated with Nelle and Grayson’s story. I had fun with the Romeo and Juliet and Cinderella comparisons. The story referenced elements of those classics while remaining wholly distinct from them. I loved Nelle and her desire to reinvent herself as someone stronger and braver than she’d been. My heart hurt for Grayson and the family expectations he was caught in the middle of. I really liked the way the book comes full circle and deals with the ghosts of the past. I’m curious to see what the author has in store next. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book through Booksprout.

This is my first book by this author and I enjoyed the story so much, I added some more to my list to read by her. This has a Cinderella mixed with Romeo and Juliet-type vibe but with differences and its own spin. I couldn't put it down.

Nelle is starting anew after having to leave her old job on sour terms and is focused on rebuilding her career so when and how she meets Grayson is a shock to her and not a pleasant one due to their fathers past. The friction and attraction between the two is fantastic and you can see how Nelle battles herself in regards to how she is falling for Grayson as well as how Greyson is torn between doing what he is expected of him versus wanting to have Nelle. There are some great twists, laughs, interesting characters and story that has you turning the page to see how it will all pan out for Nelle and Grayson... and you will love the ending!!
