Review : The Icing on the cupcake - Jennifer Ross - 2010

In the world of Southern Belles, their one life goal is getting a diamond ring on their fingers and marrying a rich and wealthy man so that they shall never break out into a sweat again unless it's out playing at the
country club or shopping. For Ansley, she had thought she had found the one Parish , she had everything all planned out until a few months after their engagement he decides to cancel everything. Ansley, now heartbroken and ashamed runs to New York to live with a Grandmother she has never met. In New York, her grandmother Vivian gives Ansley an ultimatum , pack up or get a job. In Ansley's family, baking is in their blood especially when it comes to cupcakes it's their way of coping with the problems in their lives. One Day after making too many cupcakes and giving them away for free , Ansley decides it's time to open her own Cupcake shop. A fun and lovable story that makes you think of bright colours and yummy cupcakes.
Throughout the story , the author has added Cupcake recipes which I enjoyed with fun and fabulous names to suit the moods of the characters e.g"Seeing Red and Tasting Chocolate or Shot through the Heart Cupcakes".

Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
