Operation Cinderella:This was a great introduction to this series.  Macie is a hot headed liberal and Ross is an ultra conservative family man that are at each other's throats professionally.  When Macie goes undercover to find a deep dark secret she can use against him, she doesn't expect to find the type of guy she could fall in love with and a teenage daughter that needs her.  This was a very cute story with lots of laughts and "awwwww" moments.  I especially loved the relationship Macie developed with Ross's daughter, Samantha.  It was very sweet and touching how they helped each other out and in the end Samantha was a very important force bringing them together.The Cinderella Makeover:We got to meet Francesca, Ross's ex-wife and Samantha's mother, a few times in book one.  She was fun and sassy and oh so very Britsh.  As a famous photographer she traveled a lot, but is not looking to settle down and rebuild her relationship with her daughter.  Her ticket is a new reality show where she is one of the Greg's coaches.  Greg seems to have it all, but can't find love, so he enters a reality show to transform himself into a new person - with a little help from Francesca.  Their chemistry on the set is amazing, but when he finds out she made a bet on his success he turns his back on her.  With the end of the season quickly approaching, Francesca will have to pull out all the stops to get him to take her back.I adored Francesca.  She was arrogant, very much a clothes snob, and totally stereotypically british - I loved it all.  She was my favorite character from this series (although I haven't read the short novella yet).The Cinderella Seduction:I loved Stephanie's character and her family played their parts in the story perfectly.  Constantly relying on her to pick up the slack and take care or things, she never seemed to know how to say no.  Her setp sisters were priceless.  I could just picture them screeching in the background and complaining just like the original Cinderella story.Nick was an iffy prince charming at first.  Known for trying a new flavor of woman every few weeks, he really didn't fit the mold of the traditional prince charming.  But leave it up to an adorable seven year old to make a man change his ways for the better.  He was chivalrous, charming, and handsome.  His daughter managed to show him that being a prince charming was the better way to be.Their story has a few ups and downs as it goes.  Even though it dutifully followed the Cinderella storyline, there were a few surprises thrown in to keep things interesting and different.*This book was received in exchange for an honest review*
