Christmas at Midnight

Christmas Fairy Tales, Book 1

De: Lexi Ostrow

Narrado por: Kate Wisniewski

For the holidays, all Harper Slindel wants is to skip work, forget about her final semester of medical school, and lose herself in the university gala - a ball started by her late father. Unfortunately, a fight with her stepmother lands her houses to clean alone. It’s work or lose her college money. Good-bye, Christmas cheer. Until her fairy godmother - a.k.a. her father's closest friend - comes to the rescue.

Dim lighting, fancy gowns, and Christmas lights made for an almost perfect secret evening for Harper. Duke Norrington, jock and all-around prince, made her night a Christmas miracle. She's drawn to him, even knowing she could never be "good enough". An evening spent together is brought to an end when the clock strikes midnight, and Harper must return the gown and make certain her stepmother never knows she attended, or any college savings she has will get divided between her stepsisters.

Duke is entranced with the blonde beauty he's never seen before. He's supposed to be focused on finishing his degree so he can and get started on his career with the Islanders, but all he can focus on is the beautiful woman behind an elegant mask. She's down-to-earth, breathtaking, and understood him in a way no one else ever had. So when she vanishes damn near in a puff of smoke, he knows he has to track her down.

A little Christmas magic, a lost house key, and a romance to remember shape up to a very modern fairy tale.

Fun twist on a classic fairytale

I enjoyed this twist of Cinderella. It’s a fun read with a bit of angst. The narrator did a great job story telling.
