Book Review: A Cinderella Christmas

Lucy Tilley dreams of a career in show business. But this isn’t quite what she had in mind …

This year’s Cinderella pantomime is the hottest production in town. What’s more, Lucy is starring alongside Ryan Aspall: famous TV actor, sex symbol and potential love of her entire life. One teeny problem – Lucy is tripping the light fantastic as … the back-end of the comedy cow. Surely nothing kills a flirty moment quite like wearing a massive set of udders?

At least she has the support of glamorous (if potentially flammable) Charmaine; a reality star diva of a Cinderella, who Lucy is completely fascinated by. But behind the fame and beauty, Charmaine is not all she seems.

With more drama off the stage than on it, and everyone

wanting to be star of the show, will Lucy find the confidence to make it out of the cow suit and into the spotlight this Christmas? 

A Cinderella Christmas is the new novella from Holly Kingston. Set during a pantomime in Manchester just before Christmas, this was a warming, lovely story that had me laughing out loud in many places. Lucy is such a likeable, relatable character. Charmaine, Ben, Ryan and Bridget are great supporting characters. This story flowed so well and I wish it was longer. This book has well and truly put me in the festive mood and will be great for snuggling up on the sofa with a glass of wine and the Christmas tree lights on. Romance and Christmas… I loved this book.
