A Cinderella Love Story (Billionaires and Brides Book 2)

This story proves you don't need a fairy godmother, wicked step sisters, or an evil step mother to have a great modern Cinderella tale. Charisma, charm and strength of character make the leading man a Prince among men, and a feeling of being somewhere between the ugly duckling and a fish out of water with a genuine, caring and compassionate heart creates a compelling Cinderella.

I was gifted with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review, and switched to the Kindle Unlimited version when it was published. The quality of these characters kept me moving from one chapter to the next. When we toured AJ's home I discovered the bathroom of my dreams, and throughout the banter between Kat and AJ was delightful.

Yours Truly was an all around enjoyable read by Krista Lakes!

Kat is the typical do gooder. She is sensible, all about practicality, and just wants to do whatever it takes to ensure that everyone else around her is happy. At a friend's wedding, she gets called out, and decides that is time to have a little fun. Let loose. In doing so, Kat finds herself in the company of a gorgeous and tempting stranger. AJ. What she doesn't realize though, is that AJ is her BOSS.

When these two finally FINALLY figure out who the other is, it is a true enjoyment watching them navigate their relationship was too fun. This book was so fun to read from start to finish, and I was so happy to see how these two got their HEA!

4 star Excellent contemporary romance by Krista Lakes. I love the main characters Kat and AJ. Kat is working hard to get a presentation ready that will help put the company get back on track. She attends her friends wedding and meets another guest, AJ. There is an immediate connection and Kat relaxes and enjoys their time together. They hope to date but her note is destroyed. Suddenly, they meet again and the story takes off. The character development is awesome and their personalities are similar yet different. I received a free copy of this book solely in exchange for an honest opinion. I have read other of this authors books and enjoyed them and I look forward to reading more in the future.

Like most fairy tails Cinderella went to the ball met her Prince Charming and lost her size 11 1/2 shoe that night. The note she left ended up unreadable and missed the most important part (her phone number). The wicked stepsisters are played by an ex-partner AJ who created a series of workplace lawsuits that ends up causing problems for the couple before they reach their HEA. Since she finds out the AJ is actually not just a random guest at the wedding, but her CEO, and the scandals about inappropriate conduct in the workplace are all over the news, that makes them keep their budding romance on the quiet. Once you start reading you want stop. I was giving a free ARC copy as an honest review.

I love Cinderella stories and Krista Lakes...and Yours Truly didn't disappoint! I totally related to Kat at the beginning, being the boring, taking care of others kind of friend and being void of romance in her life because of that responsible side. Fun Kat was terrific and I loved her assertiveness. AJ was a wonderful match for Kat. I hope we see a bit more of them in future stories...feel like we just got started with them!
Another amazing story from Mrs. Lakes!

Cinderella story.... It's lovely. Our hero, a billionaire goes to an employees wedding, since he's lonely, and meets the woman he's always desired and feels is his true love soul mate. They share a wipondetful night, but, the next day, his mystery woman is no where to be found. She leaves a note, but, by a turn for f unfortunate events, most of her heartfelt note and her desire to see him again, expressed in the note, is not salvageable. He feels rejected, she feels rejected, to not hear from him. Will,they make a connection, will the unfortunate misundetstandind be resolved? So very well worth reading!!!!! I received an ARC, but write a voluntary review.

I don't understand the five star reviews. This is actually two books, so you arrive at the end of first book quite abruptly. The author provides no denouement; leaving many hanging threads and questions. In quite a number of sentences she, mixes gender pronouns, and the proofreading is very poor. The tale entertains, but it is not completed in any satisfactory manner. Would not recommend.

This book had everything I needed for a quick escape. Likable and engaging characters, low if little angst, simple and straightforward plot, no cheating or other men/women, it's a standalone and most importantly has a HEA. I knew exactly where the story was going and I enjoyed just reading along to see how it would all play out for Kat and AJ. It didn't disappoint and was a quick and light read. These types of books are great in between those super angsty and dark books as a nice reading palate cleanser. You always finish with a smile.

Oh AJ and Kat , they are so meant to be together. They meet at a colleagues wedding but Kat doesn't know who A J is. The attraction is instant and after one night together, she has to leave and him not knowing how to find her. A brilliantly written story that made you feel good. AJ was there for Kat, trying to find her, supporting her in her work ideas and then when she has a little surprise for him. A story to read on a relaxing day and a story to read on a fed up day as it will make you feel better. Loved it all.

Krista Lakes writes true love stories, and this one is no different. AJ and Kat fall for each other as soon as they meet and have the most amazing night together. You can feel the connection between them and can't help but smile as they fall deeper in love. After that first night they lose contact with each other, but AJ is determined to find her. He is unlike any other billionaire. His money doesn't affect him and he is a sensitive, caring person. These 2 are perfect for each other and I loved reading this book. I have read other books by Krista and they have all been wonderful.

I absolutely loved this story, AJ and Kate made a perfect couple. Kate is attending her friends wedding and she's hopping to find a hook up at it, but when she meets handsome and charming AJ sparks fly and after spending an unforgettable night together she wants more, but when she gets called into work for an emgency she must leave, but leaves a note, which unbeknownst to her he only has the ending "Yours Truly, Kate" but when they finally meet 2 weeks later their both in for a shock
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book."

This is my first Krista Lakes book... Although the writing reads well, there were lots of minor details that just didn't add up for me. How could the heroine not know what the CEO of the company she works for, looks like? And how could a billionaire just give up on finding a woman who was on the same wedding guest list that he was invited too? Also, I found AJ's masculine inner monologue to be too feminine. As if the writer couldn't get into the mindset of an accomplished man?

On the positive side, the shoes described were adorable and a wise pick! If you're looking for a Disney formulated, happily-ever-after, Cinderella story - then this is definitely what you'll get.

This was a beautiful love story. Kat let the Fun Kat out and had a wonderful, amazing time with AJ. Unfortunately the note she left had half the writing washed away. They find each other 2 weeks later but unfortunately because of AJ's partners shenanigans they must keep their love affair under wraps. Their love grows and even through difficult circumstances, they manage to find their HEA. Read this book to find out all the details. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

Another great book by Krista Lakes. Kat meets AJ at her friend wedding. After a amazing night work calls and she has to go. All he has left is her shoe and part if a note.
We all love a Cinderella love story. Krista knows how to deliver. The characters have a great connection, great plot, he's sweet, loving. And always a HEA
5 star greatness

***** I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. ****

This is a great short read. I enjoy reading modern fairytale retellings. What first intrigued me is that Kat and I wear the same size shoe. AJ and Kat were quite the fairytale couple with a story to match. There are some things that are glossed over, which I find is pretty typical of fairytale stories. But all in all it's a great read. Very sweet and everything a fairytale should be... including wicked step sisters and all that goes with it.

This was an enjoyable storyline with lots of love and romance. I enjoyed how the author developed the characters romance and I think this could have been an exceptional story if the author had fully developed the storyline.
This book ended to quickly and it felt like the author ran out of ideas on how to finish the story. This is definitely not one of her better stories.

Aj never knew he'd meet the most entrancing woman at an employees wedding. Nor, did he expect that while trying to escape from an employees screw up that he'd be one that gets into a relationship with one of his employees. However, she was willing the other guys conquest were not. He also didn't know that she was an employee until he finally runs in to her at a meeting. The letter she left after the most wonderful night of both their lives never made it to him.

It all started with a wedding. A perfect Cinderella story. AJ and Kat enjoy a hot night together at a friend's wedding. Two weeks later they discover the truth, he's her boss and owner of the company that she works for. And if his former partners indiscretions aren't complicated enough, add a baby to the mix. It's a very sweet and beautiful story of forbidden love that nothing can stop.

This was a light hearted story that works perfect for the fairy tale in today's world. Cinderalla goes to the ball meets prince charming and leaves her shoe behind. What happens next is light hearted story. The Author story brings you in to the feel the love and frustration these characters are having to go through. I am going to have to go back and get book one of the series.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. And I loved it…great read! Fun twist on classic story. This Cinderella gets her Prince Charming in the end. Easy to read story was written well, though the story leaves the reader wondering how the media coverage of the scandal was smoothed over in the end. Great story between the main characters that leaves a sweet gentle wisp of romance filled throughout the book. Written in both the male and female perspectives. Would recommend for those that like a sweet romance. Great to see views from both character perspectives.

The two main characters of this book are truly fated to be together. I loved that they switch spots in being Cinderella. He saves her and she saves him. They meet not giving a whole lot of information about themselves to each other but wind up being a lot more closer than they should be. That leads to problems that they do solve together. Krista Lakes does it again with likeable characters and ones you want to root for.

I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet romance with great characters, romance and intrigue. This is the first book I've read from this author but I plan to read more. I would have liked to know what happened after the pregnancy was evident to others. The ending was great. I received an advance review copy in exchange for an honest review, and I highly recommend this story to lovers of sweet romance stories without too much sex.

Amazingly written... love the true love btween aJ and Kat. It wasn't your typical girl falls for billionaire. KAT And AJ's story was beautifully portraid. If you want to read about a billionaire and his not flashygirl he falls for.. you've got to read this.. Congratulations on Another one Krista!! Truly enjoyed it,.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review....

Krista Lakes never disappoints! I totally loved this story. The plot was great and flowed smoothly. It was fast-paced and kept my interest. The other fact is, I got two stories in one book. The chemistry between Kat and AJ was easily felt. I fell in love with AJ from the very beginning. Worth reading! I will be adding this one to my Kindle Library.

Kat was too neurotic and annoying right from the start and I couldn't get into the story.
And calling a character "Mr. Sexy-wink" 20 or so times in a VERY short span before finally getting to his name is also VERY annoying.

I received this ARC in exchange for my honest review. I have read a few of Krista Lakes work and have just fell in love with her as an author. I can't wait to go back and read the first book to this series " Yours Completely" You will fall in love reading about AJ and Kat. Truly a Cinderella story worth reading.

I received this ARC for an honest opinion. This was a very cute "Cinderella-ish" story but I really enjoyed it. There was no drama that brought the tone of the book down, it was lighthearted and a quick read. It was a nice change of pace from what I normally read. I would recommend this book.

Wonderfully written story about love prevailing against the odds. My only criticism would be the unanswered questions the reader is left with regarding the scandle with hero's company. Otherwise, I totally recommend reading this cute love story. I was provided an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

Sweet cinderella story with a happy ending and sweet story inbetween!! A one night stand, a wedding, a baby, work crazy all ending in Happiness!! Krista get me in the feels everytime!!! WIsh the story didn't end!!

Very disappointed in story. Started of great then it just lost it's charm. They could not even have a Roman e the had to hide. Did not realize it was a short story and there were other stories in the book. I did not like those either. To much game playing and not enough romance. Would not recommend.

Let me just say that I was pleasantly surprised by this book! You fall in love with Kate. She is full of spunk and made me laugh out loud. A.J the ultimate book boyfriend and drop dead sexy. The chemistry they share is great and I truly never wanted it to end. Great HEA!

Krista Lakes is really hitting it home with this series!! AJ and Kat meet at a wedding and have a typical one night stand, but oh boy did that one night have lasting effects. When Kat finds out who AJ is, there are issues that have to be fixed. Loved this book!

Yours Truly was a lovely story of a billionaire romance, without the dark side that usually seems to go with the male lead. Enjoyable read with Kat and AJ falling for each other.
