Ladies and gentlemen, I really hope you enjoy the phrase "...he tasted her..." because if you have a low tolerance, you will probably pass out around page 100.

Yes, this WAS a cheesy, sappy romance novel. I read plenty of reviews that stated this as the reason they didn't enjoy this book. Really? I could tell from the cover alone what I was getting into, so I don't know why others weren't expecting the same.
Now that I'm done being irritated let me say that this book was so well paced, so light and charming, that Iread it straight through in one evening. It's been quite some time since I felt compelled to prop my eyelids open through my exhaus More...

This book was very hard to read for me. It was hard to follow for some reason, I can't really explain why. When the author had the characters having conversations, she also tried to explain their thoughts. So it ended up seeming like their conversations went on for pages and pages when it really was a very short conversation.
While the plot was good, it lacked the details needed to make it a good book.

I was in the mood for some lite reading. This book delivered romance with a touch of adventure. This book did not follow the typical "romance outline." The story was not just the romance, it was the characters dealing with their lives. I did enjoy the godmother characters, they were so different as people, yet worked so well together. In the future I will read another book written by this author.

It's a great chick lit read - pure fluff but a lot of fun with entertaining characters. My favorite part is the "rule" that starts each chapter from one of the godmothers. Kauffman sets up Glass Slipper Inc. and its wacky owners for the rest of her series in this first book.

Another "fluff" book, read this one while in Rome. It was a fast read, and I enjoyed it alot. The story wasn't your stereotypical Cinderella story, and there is a twist of mystery in the second half. Good mindless reading -- these are the books I like to read when travelling!

As far as chick lit goes, there are better and worse ones to read than this. Its light and entertaining but the constant cinderella references and the spy side story was a little bit too cheesy. Dear Prince Charming by Donna Kauffman was way better.

3.5 * Read this on a long drive back from vacation. I liked most of it, I like this author. It did a jump near the end that I didn't care for but I could kind of see it coming so I wasn't surprised. Good and fun read!

An implausible plot, but Kauffman keeps it moving along. I'd almost classify this as chicklit, rather than romance genre, but I usually associate that with less steam and a bigger (trade paperback) book.

quotes#718956 from my notebook
She didn't know why she'd worried about Shane needing to leave home for adventure. He'd just brought the adventure home to live with them. p398
[not profound but still good for me to note]
Darby tried to squash the little leap of hope. Dangerous things, those little leaps. p377

Perfect story for the tomboys among us who want our guys to see our inner Cinderella. Hot stuff with a bit of spy stuff thrown in for good measure!

This book ended up being a fantastic read once I got through the first few chapters..If you have the patience to get through the first few it is definately worth the read.

I liked the story, but be prepared to skip pages at a time due to explicit sexual content. Also the language is not the greatest.

Saucy and tantilizing in the best way possible. As usual, Kauffman knows how to
give a woman a juicy story!

Great book! I will definitely be reading more Donna Kauffman novels. It started off slow, but once I got started, I couldn't put it down. There were a couple of LOL moments with Darby and Shane, and I loved the Cinderella Rules at the beginning of each chapter. I didn’t like the twist at first, but the more I thought about it, the more it worked. The mystery was difficult to follow and could have been explained a bit better, but not so bad it ruined the book.

Totally cheesy and takes an odd turn towards the end, but nice light reading.

Read for a book club. Wouldn't recommend it. It started out really slow and somewhat hard to follow. Towards the end it got much better but still not great.

This book was pretty good. I enjoy the way Donna Kauffman writes. "The Cinderella Rules" is the first book in the Glass Slipper Inc. series. It was a fun, quick read and I'll definitely be reading the other books in the series. Darby was an ok main character, but I really liked Shane. The plot was cute and made me want to go get a makeover myself!

it was good at the beginning, the tension kept my eyes glued to the pages, and then it went down it got the feeling like the climax was in the middle of the plot, before the mystery started. i dont have to finish reading it, because the resolution isnt important after all;...something like that!

I absolutely loved this book! I rented it from the library, and finished it like 2 weeks or so before the due date. It was great. Kept me wanting more and more. It had the romance, the comedy, the mystery. All wrapped up in one book. I highly recommend it!
