Genre: Inspirational/Mystery
When a professor at the local university dies, Ruby Taylor is hired to take his place. She soon finds out that working at the university is not all she dreams it will be. Is Dr. Aldridge’s death really suicide as everyone suspects? Suspenseful events soon start Ruby thinking otherwise.
Not long after Ruby starts her new job, her long-lost brother shows up in the early hours of the morning. At first, Ruby and her mother are convinced it is a prowler and call the police. The policeman who responds is none other than Wesley—Ruby’s long-time love interest.
Soon it becomes apparent that things aren’t as they seem on the surface. Who is the man who showed up on Ruby’s doorstep? Is it really her brother? Who is the person hanging out around Ruby’s office late at night – and who breaks in when she is away from her desk? What are they looking for?
Sassy Cinderella and the Valiant Vigilante is an exciting page turning mystery. Readers will want to read the first book in the series Romance Rustlers and Thunderbird Thieves first as this book refers back to some of the previous events.
Ruby is an adorably sassy heroine, and I hoped that she would be able to at least earn a date with her hero. Sort of a chick lit type of mystery, the reader is instantly drawn into the story. I am usually able to figure out who the perpetrator is pretty quickly, but Sassy Cinderella kept me guessing until the end. Pick up Sassy Cinderella and the Valiant Vigilante today for a satisfying read.
