About this ebook
I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking this will be just one more story of the ignored, "big-boned " girl, who sheds her glasses and a few extra pounds and finally attracts the notice of the most popular guy in school.
Except it isn't. Because I'm not unpopular. Not all that ignored. And I love the way I look—just as I am.
Then someone puts my name in for Homecoming Court.
The bigger surprise?
People actually vote for me!
Now, I'm a "princess"—whether I like it or not—but the guy I'm paired with isn't exactly Prince Charming.
Rhys Castle is the strong, silent type who always wears a frown—he's certainly never smiled at me. I'm 99.9% sure he hates being on Court and being my partner, but surprisingly...he doesn't switch when he gets the chance.
Turns out Rhys has a secret—something that makes him run hot and cold throughout the entire three weeks of Homecoming festivities. Whether he's stepping on my feet during dance lessons or gallantly escorting me through the Homecoming parade, I can't get a read on this guy, and for the first time, I find my confidence wavering.
But there's more to Rhys than meets the eye. And the more the spotlight shines on me, I realize there's more to me, too.

I enjoyed this book. The story was cute and fun and the characters were exceedingly likable. I really liked that Ariel was comfortable in her own skin and had a good life. I was also thrilled and relieved that we didn't have to endure one of those "Magical Makeover" moments in this story because I truly hate that. I thought this book had a very sunshine/grumpy vibe and that really worked for me. Rhys was a wonderfully broody book boyfriend that had my heart skipping many a beat and together these two made an awesome couple that gave me some very delightful feels. My one complaint was that I wished this book felt more reality instead of coming across more like a fantastical. Even with that pet peeve though, I have nothing but love for this read. This is my frank, freely posted review.
