A Cinderella Story by E.K. Woodcock

Title: A Cinderella Story
Author: E.K. Woodcock
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Release Date: April 3, 2020
Cover Design: Callie Rae at Literary Designs


"See a lost shoe, pick it up. Prince Charming, you will find.” Skylar O’Conner is many things: a cat lover, a flirt, a currently unemployed dreamer. One thing she’s not is a believer in magic or mysticism of any kind. When her mother gifts her a psychic reading on her 26th birthday, Skylar’s jaded outlook has her bored before she even steps inside. What she was not prepared for, was her own curiosity to act on the psychic’s advice when she finds an abandoned purple rainboot at the mall. Since his wife died two years ago, Carter Montgomery’s entire world has centered around his daughter, Everly. He raises her to know her mother is a constant loving presence watching over them, one he’s not sure he’ll ever be able to move on from. But when a blonde with curly hair and emerald eyes waltzes into his life, she awakens yearnings within him he thought no longer existed. Neither Skylar or Carter were prepared for what fate had in store for them, yet their attraction was undeniable. But when a simple gift causes a horrible misunderstanding, Carter pulls back out of fear the scars on his heart still cut too deep. Will pain from the past deny them the chance at a beautiful future?

Review
Rating: ☆☆☆☆

A visit to a psychic and a lost shoe puts Skylar on a path of self-discovery and change as well as bringing her into Carter's life. Carter is a single father bringing up his daughter alone after the death of his wife. The chance encounter between Skylar, Carter and his daughter Everly brings change into all their lives. Changes that nobody planned and whilst some are welcomed, some they struggle through.

As a debut novel, this showed fantastic promise. It was light and humorous with characters that were easy to fall for. I really enjoyed the way that this story unfolded and I loved that there was very little outside dramas impacting on the story. This was purely character driven and focused very much on the characters' emotions.
