Iris is such a relateable, every person's character and Ryan is very much any women's fantasy. I loved the book because it was nice to think that even your fantasy man might have his problems (just like Iris had hers). That all he (Ryan) wants is for a "real" person to really love him. A huge theme of the book for me was if you really want and need someone, don't ever give up. Hope Iris and Ryan's relationship works out with Nick (and in spite of Rochelle) in the next book of the series! Im giving up, i am, not even Oscar Wilde could save this book...The author had such good intentions with the book, the main story line wasn't bad at all...That being said, there is too much weird, too many things that don't happen in real life (I'm all with keeping the dream alive and all, but this is completely misleading)The love story between Ryan and Iris moved way too quickly, as in speed of sound quick and that doesn't happen in life...Also, this is supposed to be a cute little wink to Cinderella... last time i checked the Prince didn't play for both teams, I'm just, its just too weird, too much. You are like putting all the main issues that most male heroes in these books have, but combining them...I can't, I'm sorry. I. Give. Up
What do You think about Beautiful Illusions (2013)?
Took me awhile because I have been so busy, and reading several books at one time. Good book!!

Awful book. Don't waste your time. The description is a better read than the book.
