Busted: "Falling For Cindy Fellars" by Regina Puckett
It took me one shot to read this short story, I made one status update and went right back to reading. I was going to clean a little then return to read again, but I had to know what Andrew wanted to know. What happened to her parents? Why is she being a mother to her twin sisters? You see, Cindy was walking through the university parking lot in the evening heading to her car when she sees a shoe, she usually wouldn't pick a shoe up, this one looked expensive, she picked it up then heard something. She wanted to ignore it, she couldn't, she saw two men beating a third man up, she ran toward them with mace in her hands, one man ran, the other she sprayed. The man went down, she called 911 and stayed with the man that was hurt until they came. The man she sprayed tried to get up and she kicked him back down. Cindy went to the hospital the next day with the twins to give the shoe back to its owner. When she saw Andrew and how nice looking he was she was more than happy she did what she did to help him. He still needed her help because he didn't have a way to leave the hospital, the crooks took his wallet, for some reason his friends were busy, he couldn't take a cab. Cindy invited him to lunch with her and the twins. He really wanted to pay her back for her generosity. Download this awesome short story to find out if Andrew gets to know Cindy and the twins. You'll love this story.
I managed to devour this short story in one sitting and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. It all starts when the leading protagonist, Cindy Fellars is leaving her night class in a mad hurry to relieve the babysitter of her twin sisters. However her plans soon change as she stumbles upon an expensive shoe and hears signs of struggle coming from the nearby parking lot. Without further hesitation Cindy slides the safety off her Taser gun and goes in search of where the loud moans are coming from, unaware she is about to witness a brutal mugging of an innocent man. Cindy fires her Taser at one of the muggers who she manages to incapacitate, however the other mugger soon flees the scene while Cindy manages to alert the police and an ambulance crew for the unknown victim, unaware she has saved a man who will then go on to save her and change the course of her entire existence.
This is a delightful little mystery with a number of unexpected twists. The dialogue itself was easy to follow and understandable which leaves me to conclude this is written by a very competent author and a real credit to Regina Puckett.
On her way home from evening classes at college, Cindy Fellars finds a lone shoe on the sidewalk. Her curiosity aroused, she investigates further and discovers a man being mugged by two thugs. Without hesitation, she rushes to his rescue. Saving Andrew Fairfield, a lawyer, changes Cindy’s life forever. Falling for Cindy Fellars, is a short piece of fiction by Regina Puckett. I received a free review copy. Puckett covers a lot of ground in a very few words as she describes Cindy’s growing relationship with Andrew, and her fear of her evil stepmother, Margaret. While I thought the ending a bit too neat (I won’t spoil the story for you by describing it), it was still a delightful mystery.
I really loved this short story, although I wish it was ten times longer. The reader meets Cindy when she has to save a man by being mugged using a taser. The man, Andrew ends up to be very important when Cindy finds trouble in her life and needs Andrew's help in fixing the issues. This is really a fun, short story and I think Regina Puckett did an amazing job in a limited space. the most important thing this book does is introduce the reader to an amazing author.
A 24-page Cinderella retelling, that is a cute and fun little read. I found it a perfect in-between read, short and sweet. I can see myself rereading it somewhere down the line.
A lovely short story by Regina Puckett. Cindy Fellars stumbles upon a mugging, and rather than panic, she comes to the rescue of Andrew. The two quickly develop a friendship after Cindy visits him in the hospital.
Andrew immediately falls for this young woman who has challenges of her own. It is with his support that she makes sense of her own life, fraught with tragic mystery. As the two manage to make sense of Cindy's unfortunate past, the future becomes more than manageable, it becomes ideal.
