Faking Cinderella

An Heiress in Disguise Romcom

De: Pippa Grant

Narrado por: Ryan West, Maxine Mitchell

A grumpy former bodyguard, an heiress in disguise, and an accidental roommate situation…

If I’d known a tall, broad mountain of a man would crash the one-bedroom cabin I’m borrowing, I might have handled things differently.

I still would’ve lied to him. He doesn’t need to know all of my reasons for wanting to meet my surprise triplet half brothers while undercover as a housekeeper.

But if I’d known I was going to have a surprise roommate, I wouldn’t have rigged a homemade security system in the cabin that left him…erm… Let’s just call it easy to spot in a crowd.

And he wouldn’t have tried to blackmail me when he figured out my real identity.

And I wouldn’t have been so attracted to his audacity that I started looking deeper at the wounded man beneath the gruff exterior.

And then we wouldn’t be here, with him making me scream his name for all of the good reasons every night.

But I can’t keep faking Cinderella forever, and when it’s time for me to come clean, he’ll have to choose—loyalty to my half brothers or belief in me and the noble reason for the long game I’ve been playing.

Faking Cinderella is a swoony romcom featuring a mountain of a man with an even bigger wounded heart and an heiress determined to right a wrong. This opposites attract, secret identity romance stands alone and comes with a sweetly satisfying happily ever after.

Tropes include opposites attract, secret identity, roommates to lovers, enemies to lovers, blackmail, revenge, secret family, found family, bodyguard, maid, and lady billionaire boss.

Hilarious vengeance with a side of secrets

What a fun, laugh out loud read/listen!!!

From the opening scene…to the ending moments…I don’t think my smile ever left my face! Margot and Rhys were bound to come together in the end…I mean, this is a romantic comedy with an HEA!

The storyline, characters, grudges, secrets…it all came together to form this fantastic and hilarious, shenanigan-filled romance! Forced proximity plot, character in hiding, it was all so great!

**AUDIO BOOK**

The Duet Narration, performed by Ryan West and Maxine Mitchell was GREAT! Such wonderful added personality to the characters! LOVED IT!

Wonderful Story & Narration🎧Delightful & Heartfel

It is great being back in Pippa Grant’s wonderful “Small Town Sisterhood” world again for another fabulous romantic comedy, a captivating story with lots of heart, humor, and heat! You can not help but fall in love with the characters, their shenanigans and idiosyncrasies, and a meddling moose. This third book in the series is Margie Johnson, aka Margo, and Rhys O’Malley’s story, and I was looking forward to Margo’s story and learning more about her after meeting her in the earlier books. Margo is Daphne Merriweather-Brown’s sister from “The Grumpiest Billionaire”, a not to be missed story, and after their father disowned Daphne, Margo has been plotting to avenge her and take her father down. Learning of her father’s infidelities and that she had triplet half-brothers out there, she was going to have them be part of that plan, but to pull it off she needed to hide her true identity from them until she got the on board. Margie went to meet her brothers, and they offered her a cabin to stay in, the same cabin Rhys was staying in. Their first meeting was a scene to remember, hilarious and one Rhys would not live down. Rhys is friends with the triplets, and Decker asked him to look into Margie, so sharing a cabin will be convenient for his investigation. He feels like he knows her, and it does not take him long to figure it out, and he makes that work to his advantage. It was great watching those two interact, get to know each other, and see their relationship morph into something so much more. I loved all the layers of the story and how it all played out with the perfect balance of drama, a touch of angst, witty dialogue and humor, heartfelt emotions, and a slow burn but so worth the wait romance. As always, the writing, plot, and world-building are incredible, as are the complexity of the characters, their growth, and development. I also loved seeing the characters from the earlier books and how everything came together in the end, which was fabulous, and the epilogues were everything. Pippa Grant, thank you for another wonderfully entertaining story, the laughs and the emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 Maxine Mitchell and Ryan West’s stellar performance makes for a delightful listen, and they did an outstanding job animating the characters, embodying them completely. They were naturals in their roles, with Mitchell nailing it as Margo, fierce and confident, and West doing the same as Rhys, serious and perfectly grumpy. Both are fantastic performing the roles of the side/secondary characters, and their versatility and talent as voice artists truly shine. They set the ideal tone for the story, handled the humor and witty dialogue effortlessly, and their expressive performance conveyed all the characters’ emotions, making you feel each one. These two entertaining storytellers deliver an enthralling performance that is captivating while taking the already amazing story to another level.

Rom com with spice

Female Billionaire, bodyguard mountain man, secrets, small town, rom com with hot spice!

No one does billionaires like Pippa Grant. They are never what you expect, and so much better than anything you could have thought of. I love all the twists and turns that pop up. And it really is a rom com, but there is still a lot of heart to the story. Fav author ever!

This is not the first book in the series, but it can be read as a complete stand-alone. However I think you will get more out of it if you have read the other books as you have met some of the characters before. But don’t let that deter you. This can be a stand-alone. But it will make you want to read all the other books!

I listened to the audiobook of this, and loved it! I think that hearing the voices gives you so much more as a reader. You really can feel the emotions. You connect much quicker to the characters as well. These narrators were top notch.

Oh moose goodness

The grumpy damaged man I didn’t know I needed to unconditionally love someone from a dysfunctional family ❤️ there is always something special when to broke people come together to help each other heal. Plenty of laugh out loud moments and so many amazing Easter eggs! It truly made me want to go back and reread some other books ❤️ if you are looking for a romcom with heart, reminders that it is ok to make mistakes and still have love with plenty of laughs (some so many 🍆 😂 this is it!

Now I love Margot!!

I don’t think I’ve ever disliked any of Pippa Grant’s books but y’all, this one is so good!! You’ve got a strong, independent FMC who’s a billionaire & a sexy, stoic bodyguard/ former marine MMC. They both have some family trauma they are trying to come to terms with & talk about “found family” (one of my favorite micro tropes) Margie/Margo literally finds out she has triplet half-brothers! She goes undercover to find out if they will like her for herself not for her money & one of the triplets gets his friend Rhys to figure out her story. Part of the plan is to make them share a one bedroom cabin. Hello forced proximity! Oh, i forgot to mention that she’s Daphne’s sister! I love the triplets & plan to beg Pippa for their stories too! If you’re a Pippa Grant fan or just need a good rom com, get this one!! And it’s even better in audio!!!
