Book description
She stopped at nothing. To get everything. Scheming social climber
Alexa may be humbly born. But she's a class-hopping cruise missile aimed
at the very top of the gold-digging tree. Only a title, mansion and
family tiara will do. Befriending feckless aristo Florrie (three
surnames plus black hole where her brain should be) means the grandest
doors swing open and the prince of her dreams is in sight. But has
Florrie's mother, the formidable Lady Annabel, rumbled what Alexa is up
to? Beautiful but penniless student Polly, meanwhile, is in love. Is
Max, the handsome young vet she's found in a country lane, quite as
ordinary as he seems, however? Passionate love, eye-widening snobbery
and more than naked ambition abound in this contemporary Cinderella tale
- a deliciously satirical novel of the upwardly mobile. Wendy Holden,
a former journalist, is the author of ten acclaimed bestsellers. She is
a regular on TV and radio and writes for a wide range of publications.
She is married, lives in the country and has two small children. Visit
