Redneck Cinderella by LuAnn McLane is a story about a young woman and her father learning how to fit in after selling their farm and suddenly becoming well-off.
Jolie Russell and her Father are becoming the talk of the town - and not in a good way. They sold their farm at the instance of Cody Dean a wealthy land developer who convinced them that it would be good for them and that they could still live on a portion of their land. What they didn't know at the time was that they would have to fit in with the high-society folk, something they are quite unprepared to do.
Jolie lost her mother when she was just a young girl and having grown up with only her father as a role model, and lacking a mother figure, has grown into not only somewhat "backwards" but also very much a tomboy. She speaks her mind and feels at home with the "boys". However, Cody Dean has not escaped her eye and her feelings towards him are stirring her feminine side.
Along the way she meets Cody's brother, a local teacher and volunteer in many of the community activities. He befriends her and their friendship helps her start to learn what she needs to do to fit in to this new-found status. She drags her father right along with her, feeling it's best for both of them to better themselves.
Eventually, she comes to realize, she needs to be loyal to herself and that maybe, just maybe she's fooling herself into thinking she can fit in with these high-society folks. She makes a decision to change a be someone who she can live with, not someone who desperately needs to fit in - just someone she can wake-up and know she is comfortable being that person.
Check it out see what Jolie does, laugh at the funny times she creates or is a part of, watch how she discovers a wealthy land developer who is much more human than she expected.
Cute story line, interesting twist on the Cinderella story although somewhat predicitable.
