— Vilma Iris
The day her mother passed away, Beulah was only given a name. That was it. No other explanation.
Portia Van Allan was not someone Beulah could believe her mother ever knew. Wealthy, self-absorbed and other than the fact Portia was supplying special care for Beulah’s sister, Portia was cruel.
The day Portia’s son returns home for the summer, Beulah discovers that Portia isn’t in charge. This isn’t her home at all. Her late husband left her with nothing. It all belongs to their son who doesn’t seem to like his mother at all.
Jasper Van Allan doesn’t know why his mother has hired a young gorgeous blonde to take care of the house and almost lets her go before he finds out the truth.
Realizing there’s more to Beulah than a stunning face, he keeps finding reasons to be near her all the time. It’s all falling into place, it all begins to make sense . . . until the real lies, the dark secrets, and the skeletons come tumbling out of the Van Allan closet. Twisted truths that will send Beulah running . . .
…
"Abbi Glines is the queen of steamy modern day fairytales with a twist. Sweet Little Thing will keep you guessing and needing more from the very first word all the way to the very last."
— Danielle Lagasse

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Abbi Gline's modern-day take on Cinderella—and a shocking cliffhanger—left us yearning for the next book in the series. At 19, Beulah Edwards is left caring for her sister with Down syndrome after their mother dies. A cryptic note sends Beulah to the wealthy Van Allan family, where she’s hired as a housekeeper in order to keep her sister in the expensive care facility she loves. Family scion Jasper is immediately drawn to Beulah, but secrets complicate their connection. This fairytale romance is made sweeter by how Jasper empowers Beulah rather than rescuing her.
Customer Reviews
Awesome read
I read this book not knowing if I'd enjoy it. Well it was a good story. The twist at the end was unexpected. On to the next book in the series. I hope Beulah can recover.
Really?
Disappointed. The writing wasn’t great and the ending was obvious even though I didn’t want it to go that way. Reading the sex scenes before she lets you in the the secret? Gross.
Trash
It’s a good thing I got this book for free. There were so many typos and grammatical mistakes I felt like an editor reading a first draft. The story was juvenile and predictable, I saw the ending coming a mile away. Don’t waste your time on this book, save your money and your dignity!
