Modern Cinderella Story

This was my first experience with Debbie Civil's work and it was delightful. Debbie reimagined the Cinderella fairy tale into a somewhat more modern story. The protagonist, Julia Lang, was treated as a servant in her aunt's household. Julia becomes a mail order bride in order to escape from that life. The book is a fun, fast read similar to a fairy tale, and is an amusing way to spend a few hours. Bethany Kay's narration is fine and her voice is amiable. I was given a free copy of the audiobook and I have voluntarily left this review.

Modern Day Cinderella

Modern Day Cinderella where Julia saves herself through love and becoming who she was meant to be. Great listening with the narrator’s soothing voice
