Publisher's summary

"If the Shoe Fits encompasses everything I love about rom-coms. I laughed, I swooned, I smiled. Another hit for Julie Murphy!" (Colleen Hoover, number one New York Times best-selling author of Hopeless)

If the shoe doesn’t fit, maybe it’s time to design your own.

Cindy loves shoes. A well-placed bow or a chic stacked heel is her form of self-expression. As a fashion-obsessed plus-size woman, she can never find designer clothes that work on her body, but a special pair of shoes always fits just right.

With a shiny new design degree but no job in sight, Cindy moves back in with her stepmother, Erica Tremaine, the executive producer of the world’s biggest dating reality show. When a contestant on Before Midnight bows out at the last minute, Cindy is thrust into the spotlight. Showcasing her killer shoe collection on network TV seems like a great way to jump-start her career. And, while she’s at it, why not go on a few lavish dates with an eligible suitor?

But being the first and only fat contestant on Before Midnight turns her into a viral sensation - and a body-positivity icon - overnight. Even harder to believe? She can actually see herself falling for this Prince Charming. To make it to the end, despite the fans, the haters, and a house full of fellow contestants she’s not sure she can trust, Cindy will have to take a leap of faith and hope her heels - and her heart - don’t break in the process.

Best-selling author Julie Murphy’s reimagining of a beloved fairy tale is an enchanting story of self-love and believing in the happy ending each and every one of us deserves.

Enjoyable Summer Romance

Trendy, gentle and unapologetic- loved the joy and truth of inclusive pop romance that breaks stereotypes. Great vacation read.

Fun!

This was a really fun novel - a unique twist on the Cinderella story. I enjoyed the characters and the voice acting was excellent. A great vacation read.

Best book I’ve listened to in a long time!

I loved this story. It’s so refreshing to listen to something that isn’t all cishet straight-sized people. 10/10 totally recommend!

Jimmy Choos and Prince Charming, too

What a delightful modern fairytale. I missed the hanky panky of my usual fare (I didn't realize this was a Disney imprint until the credits rolled on the audio), I am absolutely here for a plus heroine conquering the cutthroat worlds of fashion and reality dating shows - and finding her perfect Jimmy Choos and Prince Charming, too. Cheers to books celebrating more bodies living their best lives.

Not usually a fan of fairytales and love stories but this one was really good!

I’m usually more of a horror lover and not usually into romance or fairytales but this one is really good!

Perfection

I live for these type of books! Julie Murphy knocks it out of the park once again. I hope this one gets made into a movie because I feel like it would become my favorite movie ever. Henry and Cindy are both so dang likable. The entire story flows so well and I love happily ever afters! The narrator has a great story telling voice too. Well done all around.
Get. This. Book!
