Avery Cinder has gotten very little she’s wanted out of life. But with a scholarship to BYU and a membership to a church that suits her better than she imagined, Avery’s life is definitely turning around. With tattooed arms and worn out boots, she doesn’t exactly blend into the conservative school, but after a day or two in her new political science classes, Avery knows she chose well.
Aaron Price has gotten almost everything he’s ever asked for. But when the girl everyone assumes he’ll marry, ends up not being the one, Aaron swears off dating--at least until graduation. It’s okay. He’s found a new friend in Avery, and she doesn’t mind helping his pathetic scheme to use her to keep the girls away.
Problem is, the more time Aaron spents with Avery, the more he realizes she might be the one. And falling in love with your best friend isn’t as easy as one might think...
MISMATCHED IN LOVE ALMOST CINDERELLA, is a modern twist on a favorite fairytale, and the first in a series of novellas.

OK, full disclosure -- I am not the target audience for this book. I generally stay away from Christian Fiction b/c I can't always relate, and I know next to nothing about the Mormon society. So why did I buy this book? Well it's written by one of my fave authors, and the synopsis sounded really cute! And it was! It was still a bit out of my wheelhouse, but when you can, as a non-Christian, still thoroughly enjoy the book? I say success. Though it took me 4 chapters to figure out that BYU was Brigham Young University...*rolls eyes at self*So while a lot of the LDS specific stuff went over my head, it was a super sweet romance of 2 characters who taught each other a lot. LOVE stories of couples who become friends first and then have the romance bloom out of that. I was worried about the Hillary conflict, but that actually went ok in the end. And Lexi was a superstar -- such a sweet soul!
So even for a jaded soul like me, this was a sweet fun read. It wasn't preachy, but the characters were entrenched in Mormon society....so I guess it's a personal taste thing whether that will detract from your enjoyment...it didn't for me.

Mismatched in Love Almost Cinderella Almost a Fairytale edition by Jolene Betty Perry Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
Avery and Aaron meet when she starts attending BYU after converting to LDS and finding her way. Aaron is in the midst of dating her roommate, Hilary, who is a childhood friend of his. Aaron quickly realizes that he doesn't have strong feelings for Hilary and is just going through the motions. After consulting with his sister, Vanessa, he decides that he needs to break it off. Hilary was quite moody and catty throughout this book and did not treat Avery very well at all. Aaron and Avery find themselves becoming good friends and then it leads to more. It was well done and cute in how they both questioned where this thing with them was leading and Aaron finally gets his mother on board with his new plans.
LOVED this book! It was equally funny, sweet, interesting and well written! I was sad when it was over! It was surprisingly different from all the LDS romances I've ever read.
I love a story I want to quote. I also love an imperfect heroine. Avery is not the most beautiful, poised or richest girl in the novel. While this story does have a religious twist, it is not preachy. "My forever, my safety, my home, my best friend, my future," which princess will prince Aaron chose? By "trusting the quiet voice," Avery learns to believe in herself. As Avery sheds the mask she wears, she transforms like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon. Many of the elements of the Cinderella tale are included from the stepsisters, the ball, the stroke of midnight, to Cinder fleeing from her prince. " I'm almost like Cinderella. Someone dressed me up for a dance I only half felt like I belonged in, and then I took off, right when things were getting good. Sadly, I have no spell or fairy godmother to blame. Just me. On the plus side, I still have both my shoes." "Maybe I'm worth more than I realize." Coming to understand her self-worth allows Avery to embrace all the joy that life has to offer.
This is a clean read and appropriate for all ages. If you love Cinderella, you will love this modern version.
I need a clean romance with humor, fun and witty banter. Am I dissapointed much? Not with this book! I have re-read this fun story several times now, and any good book that I am willing to read again should get 5 stars!
I really like the alternating persons format for romance stories. The author carried it off well and created a great set of multi-dimensional supporting characters for the story. It is a short novel and I guess that helped decide the low price. It's a real bargain but at the end I wished I could have stayed with Avery and Aaron a little longer.
I enjoyed this book, and the fact that the characters did not truly stay in the stereotypes that could have been. That was my favorite thing about the book - even though the main female character has BROWN hair, not blonde like the cover photo! (Sorry, that is just a nit-picky detail.) I enjoy books with religious people living their religion, but not hitting you over the head with their faithfulness. It always seems more life-like when they live their religion the way that I do - just a fact of life, not anything profound every day. Not preachy at all, just an aspect of a full life. Clean, and also showing people trying to stay chaste, which I really enjoyed how that challenge was presented. I'm looking forward to reading the other books in this series.
This was a great story. It was short, but not a short story, if that makes sense. This is an LDS book and is geared that LDS people will understand the culture and language. But I think anyone could relate to a person trying to change for the better and living different standards. This was a much deeper story then I had thought it would be and the characters had a great depth. It is a good writer that can make you sigh when the characters have there first deep moments together. The kiss was awesome} I will be looking forward to this series} It was .99 on and well worth the price.
