Synopsis

One fateful night will change their destinies forever. …

Convinced that his stepmother and half brothers have been wrongfully evicted by cattle king Eli Dearing, Asher Ellis uses the cover of an extravagant ball to break into the Three Cedars’ ranch house to search for proof. On the verge of discovery, he flees, but a boy’s cry compels him to make a daring rescue.

Spunky and independent Samantha Dearing balks when she learns the ball her father is hosting is nothing more than a matrimonial ambush. Taking a break from unwanted suitors, Samantha spots a thief fleeing her home. When the stranger ends up saving her brother’s life, she hides the only clue to his identity left behind—his boot—and resolves to find him herself.

When Samantha encounters the older brother of a student she tutors, all thoughts of the bootless mystery man vanish. Asher values family above wealth, a rare trait that opens her heart. Afraid she will discover his past misconduct, Asher tries to keep his distance, but when a series of suspicious accidents befall her, he vows to protect her, even though saving her life could mean losing her love.

With a heaping of faith, sweet romance, and an enjoyable perspective on an ages-old fairy tale, If the Boot Fits meets every requirement for a delightful retelling. PLOT I'll admit Cinderella retellings are not usually my favorite. Perhaps because so many feel so...cookie cutter. The same, with no de......more

A whimsical retelling of Cinderella mixed with romance, danger and intrigue. I knew that I was going to fall in love with this book even more than the first one in this series by Karen Witemeyer.

WHAT A STORY OF GRACE & FORGIVENESS! This book had some of the best faith content I’ve read in a while, while also representing human nature and our shortcomings. Samantha grew so much throughout this book! She went from thinking the worst of every man, a bit immature, a little self centered to some......more
