Overview

A Contemporary Sapphic Cinderella

Audiobook blurb:

Cynthia “Cyn” Robinson has only ever wanted three things: the approval of her stepmother, to save lives as a firefighter, and the attention of her dream girl, Marigold Grimm.

A socialite who most of the town refers to as Grimm Falls royalty, Marigold is so far out of Cyn’s league that even dreaming about her could be considered inappropriate.

And Cyn has all but given up on her stepmother, who refuses to accept a daughter who does not delight in wearing dresses and working in her clothing boutique. Cyn tried to be that girl ever since she and her father moved to Grimm Falls, but sooner or later, she always turns back into a pumpkin.

One thing Cyn does have is her job. She’s a great firefighter, and when an arsonist strikes her beloved town, she’s ready to forget the unfulfilled parts of her life and throw herself into work – until Marigold Grimm’s beloved garden becomes the firebug’s next target.

Cyn puts out the blaze, but there’s more than one type of spark flying as Cyn and Marigold meet. Is her dream girl really within reach, or will it all go up in flames?

Book blurb:

A firefighter sweeps her dream girl off her feet in this contemporary Cinderella story.

Cynthia “Cyn” Robinson has only ever wanted three things: her stepmother’s approval, to save lives as a firefighter, and the attention of her long-time crush, Marigold Grimm.

The problems? Her stepmother would rather Cyn be like girly-girl Marigold than be with her. There’s a serial arsonist bent on watching Grimm Falls burn. And Marigold is so far out of Cyn’s league it’d be laughable if it wasn’t so heartbreaking.

When the firebug makes Marigold’s sprawling estate his next target, Cyn extinguishes the blaze and carries Marigold out of the fiery building.

There’s more than one type of spark flying as Marigold finally notices Cyn, but will she get the girl, win over her stepmother, and live happily ever after… or will it all go up in flames?
