Ashes (Modern-Day Fairy Tale Book 1) by MK Harkins – Review by Kerry Carr

Ashes by M.K. Harkins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a great, modern retelling of the Cinderella story. It is a young adult romance with a sprinkle of fantasy and magic as well. The author does an amazing job of filling the story with so many twists and turns that it keeps the reader guessing every step of the way but the link to the Cinderella story of meeting “a prince” and leaving behind the “wicked stepmother and stepsisters” is all there.
Even though there is an element of a fairy tale in this book the story is also set and is relatable to modern day and modern life for young adults. From the romance between our 2 main characters to the group of girl Bullies that want to make Ashley’s life miserable at school just like she is at home.
This is a great story and one I really enjoyed.
