Working as the personal assistant to one of Hollywood's cruelest divas has left Amanda Queen more determined than ever to sell her screenplay and gain her independence. In the meantime, she'll settle for a temporary escape. When her employer is felled by the flu on Hollywood's biggest night of the year, Amanda gets her glam on, struts out the door, and parties with the glitterati. But she never expects to come face to faceâ??and closer than closeâ??with one of the hottest stars in the game . . . Following up his first Oscar win with a steamy after-hours romp with an enigmatic woman seems like the perfect way for actor Sam Pleasant to celebrateâ??until she suddenly disappears. Worse, she's vanished with the wrong swag bag: the one containing his Oscar statue, leaving Sam even more intrigued about the beauty's identityâ??and wondering if a repeat performance of their amazing night is in the stars. And when a second chance encounter happens, only a trip to Sam's family ranchâ??and revealing the whole, not-always-glamorous, truth about themselvesâ??will give them a chance to turn one magical night into forever . . . "Wonderfully inventive...Uniting a heart-stopping hero and a plus-size heroine who knows her own worth, this steamy fairy tale shines." â??Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW "One of romance's brightest stars...[this is] a thoroughly modern Cinderella story." â??Bookpage, Starred Review "Another winner from rising star Weatherspoon." â??Library Jo No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

What fun this book was! There is definitely a bit of the fairytale vibe in this one and it was a joy to read!
What I liked:
* Amanda: strong, talented, works hard, caring, capable, beautiful, confident in many if not all things, a delight and delightful.
* Sam: gorgeous, talented, loves deeply, Oscar winner, caring, confident, intriguing, and so much more!
* The introduction – what fun!
* That both H/h were nice people
* The contrast between Amanda and Dru, the woman she worked for
* Helene, friend to both Amanda and Sam
* The families of both Sam and Amanda
* That I needed to look up terms I was unfamiliar with (triangle braids & Hotep…perhaps others) and through this learned and grew
* That this felt/is an OwnVoice story and as such gave me a different perspective
* That there was a HFN/HEA for the couple
* Knowing that Jesse, the third Pleasant brother, will get a book of his own soon.
What I did not like:
* Dru – perfectly evil though how Amanda put up with her so long boggles the mind!
* Having to wait for Jesse’s story…and wondering if the series will end after Jesse’s story or if others mentioned in this book might show up in books of their own.
Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series/by this author? Yes
