I love looking behind the scenes. Take me to a circus and I'll want to see what's happening behind the big tent rather than in the ring! So Makeover Miracle really worked for me with its setting in the world of reality TV.Choosing a setting like a makeover program for a book could come across as gimmicky, but Charmaine Ross handles it well. Abbey's emotional journey is strongly written and believable. That grounds the book. In fact, it makes the structure of the TV makeover program part of the push that drives Abbey into seeing herself with new eyes.Quinn is an interesting hero. He's three dimensional, not just Abbey's "reward" for risking love. He has his own issues and he deals with them.And the celebration of friendship in the story is fantastic!
