The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back

Hott Synopsis

Mattie Lowe can’t believe that she’s the ugly stepsiter – but honestly, who could possibly compete with Ella? Ella’s an orphan. Ella’s gorgeous. Ella gets great grades. Ella’s always chipper. Ella volunteers for everything. Ella, Ella, Ella.

Yeah, Mattie knows she’ll never measure up but did Ella have to take the one thing that mattered most? Mattie’s prince charming, Jake Kingston.

Except, Ella’s not madly in love and being the true perfect sister that she is, dumps Jake as soon as she realizes that Mattie’s in love.

And maybe, just maybe, Jake’s not all he seems to be either.

Hott Review

What I liked: This book was really a lot of fun I loved the twist on the Cinderella story. Ms Wilson brought back the horrors of high school in a snarky and enjoyable way that so few authors can.
It’s perfectly acceptable for middle and high-school readers.
What I didn’t like: It was a bit gooshy at the end & brought tears to my eyes.

Author Bio:

Sariah Wilson has never jumped out of an airplane, never climbed Mt. Everest, and is not a former CIA operative. She has, however, been madly, passionately in love with her soulmate and is a fervent believer in happily ever afters—which is why she writes romance. The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back is her fourth happily ever after novel. She grew up in southern California, graduated from Brigham Young University (go Cougars!) with a semi-useless degree in history, and is the oldest of nine (yes, nine) children. She currently lives with the aforementioned soulmate and their four children in Utah, along with three tiger barb fish, a cat named Tiger, and a recently departed hamster that is buried in the backyard (and has nothing at all to do with tigers).

I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!
