Review: Cute twist on the Cinderella tale
Rating: 5 out of 5

This is the tale of the love story between poor, chimney (well, fireplaces anyway) cleaning Mark Sintorella and son of a billionaire, Ashton Armitage. Mark's nickname is Sinders, hence the title of the book. Ash has to get married quickly or he loses his inheritance. Problem: he's gay and closeted. Mark is a clothing designer (no helpful animals however) who is trying to save money to pay for design school. Of course there's something approaching an evil marriage minded stepmother with her two little chicks, although she's not really evil and one of the chicks definitely doesn't want to be married off, billionaire or not. It's a cute twist on the fairy tale, and has the requisite fairy godmother (I mean godfather) and a pair of glass slippers. A good read if you're in the mood for a whimsical tale.
