Sweet Cinderella romance set in NZ

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op 30 juni 2019

Three and a half stars.

Darby Livingstone is a veterinary assistant with a menagerie of cats and a dog, she's had breast cancer but her hair is growing back and she going for life full-throttle, including trying out for the part of Cinderella in a local production to support Sunflower House which provides accommodation to cancer patients while they are having treatment at the local hospital. Unfortunately being nearly six foot tall and a bit of a klutz means Darby is more likely to get one of the ugly sister roles!

Darby first meets Reid at a wedding, where she mocks him for fending off advances from drunken wedding guests before being soaked in red wine when the brides bouquet ricochets off Reid's glass, just like Cinderella Darby escapes into the night leaving her stained shoes behind.

Reid Hudson is that rarity, a straight male wedding planner, his mother died from breast cancer and his BFF MacKenna Jones has roped him into making the costumes for the production of Cinderella, he was going to refuse until he discovered that he would be working alongside the beautiful and charming Darby.

I was really enjoying this and then, about three-quarters of the way through it just seemed to run out of steam a little bit, the Cinderella riff kind of wore off and the inability of either character to commit because of their cancer fears became repetitive.

However, those were little niggles, this was still a fun, sweet romance between a man who can do it all and a woman who needs someone she can rely on.

Set in New Zealand this is a love story from an angle I have never read before, it is written with such insight into how cancer can effect people in different ways. Add in a day job at the vets with amateur dramatics at night, a wedding designer roped in to help with the costumes and sparks will fly in a will they or won't they let cancer get between them, with a hilarious sense of humour throughout the storyline.

The cover almost put me off! But the authors reputation didn't so:

A perfect mix of Romance and fun in a typical Tracey way. A feel-good novel. Brilliant I loved the mix of the fun-loving Cancer Survivor Darby and Reid the husky male who is a wedding gown designer. In Tracy's description of Reid, I could almost see the hunky All Black full-back. And the sensitive way she describes Darby is beautiful and her rescued animals add more to this story set in New Zeland. Oh! and the cover says it all😁

Darby is taking it one day at a time after her battle with cancer. She puts on a feisty front but a lot of fear and rejection lies underneath. A vet nurse by day and amateur actor by night. In the hunt for costumes she is directed towards Reid, a wedding planner and machinist.
Reid has suffered his own heartache and has avoided relationships. Fate however, had it’s own ideas......

Darby is a lovely but accident prone cancer survivor. Reid is persuaded to help with costumes for a play with profits going to a local cause. Reid's mother died of cancer and he is reluctant to get close to Darby at first. They are so perfect together but the future is not guaranted, for anyone.

Yes! This book ticked all the boxes! Well written love story, that actually told a story. As well as being a stand alone, it did not make me cringe with the man falling to his knee to propose.

I really liked the premise of this story.
When Reid Hudson gets roped into making costumes for an amateur production of Cinderella by a spunky, fun loving, slightly klutzy Darby, he immediately finds himself attracted to her. He soon discovers she is a cancer survivor. His mother was not. As much as he wants to distance himself from Darby, he finds he can't. When Darby finds out his mother died from cancer, she tries to back away from him – because if her cancer did come back – she didn’t want to put him through all the heartache again if it became ‘worst case’ scenario. My favorite character was Marianne the minister’s wife, down to earth, not at all sanctimonious and she had some of the best lines... “You tell us you moved to Invercargill so you wouldn’t feel like the ‘cancer chick’, yet you allow that monkey on your back to continue whispering fear into your heart. You use it as an excuse not to take a chance on love.” Sounds like a lot of personal experience from friends or whoever on the part of the author in many of the scenes in this story.

It was a little too explicit for me though, otherwise I would’ve given 5 stars. ‘Banging like crazy’ aside (quote from the book) it was an enjoyable read.
