"My Cheeky Angel" by Mimi Barbour is a wonderful twist on the age old make-over story. But, instead of Professor Higgins transforming Eliza Doolittle, it's Celi, an angel with attitude. Celi dares shy Annie to reinvent herself, by alternately bullying her and bribing her. Yellow roses and tiny bottles of perfume boost Annie's confidence. She gets a new job, new clothes and dares to date a handsome stranger. In the process she ignores her good buddy whom she secretly has a crush on. Tyler is a social worker who deals with street kids. She has been a shoulder to cry on for some of his clients in the past. When the heavy work load of her new job makes her ignore a cry for help, Annie's new life explodes around her. She struggles to make amends and sort out her priorities. Annie's bubbly, warm personality makes this a very `good read'.
