Review: Light and amusing twist on Cinderella with great characterizations

I have a fondness for adult twists on fairy tales and have read quite a few of them in mm fiction by now, but what Marie Sexton did here goes on my list of favorite fairy tales retelling. In general it follows Cinderella close enough and the main twist blurb pretty much gives out, which would be annoying, but luckily I am the reader who loves spoilers so I did not mind. I absolutely loved how she portrayed the characters and no, Cinder is not "chick with brick" characters despite what blurb hints at happening, I liked how she let them get to know each other somewhat while still standing within fairy tale framework, I thought they had sweet, easy chemistry and I adored Milton.
