Two Simple Words
For the first 9 months of Alissa Ashton's life, she and her sister were virtually identical, but then birth happened. Damage to her brain left her body with a life-long impairment known as hemiplegic cerebral palsy. However, the condition pales in comparison to the life-long impairment caused by two simple words her mother and sister have used to label "Crippled One."
Dressed as Elvira, she find an unlikely Prince Charming at a Halloween Party, drinking away his sorrows, and rescues him. After an unbelievably gross but wonderful night together, she flees down his front steps to her car, but cannot escape what she feels. She's in love. After only one night she can't believe the connection she feels with him. She doesn't know it but he feels the same way. If only he knew her real name?
When the prince shows up at her house with the shoe his Cinderella left behind at his house the night before, he meets her sister, who forms a plan. Just like Alissa's self-confidence, she steals him, and spends the next two months flaunting it.
The trouble with the sister's plan is that it's not just Alissa's body which is different from her sister's, and before the clock strikes 12 on New Year's Eve it leads her Prince Charming to a revelation, a lost shoe, and two simple new words for Alissa that will change her life forever.

I really enjoyed this story I didn't realize until the end how much of a Cinderella story it was. I love how they meet she acted so much like me in the situation and after it was great. The talking all night was probably one of my favorite scenes of the book. I also enjoyed seeing the small family grow and the boy being the one who was second-guessing himself during the story would recommend this to a friend great book.

I was enthralled
I started this story being a little confused. But wow I got straightened out.
I had to keep reading it.
It is about 2 twin sisters, one of which is called disabled. All because 1 foot is larger and more due to the way her birth was.
I love the ending.
I really look forward to more from Dara Lynn.

A heartwarming story
I wasn't sure what to expect as this is the first book I've read by this author. Once I got into it I was very impressed. It's such a well written and well flowing story. I loves reading it and found it really hard to put it down.
