Description
Convinced that his stepmother and half brothers have been wrongfully evicted by cattle king Eli Dearing, Asher Ellis uses the cover of an extravagant ball to break into the Three Cedars’ ranch house to search for proof. On the verge of discovery, he flees, but a boy’s cry compels him to make a daring rescue.
Spunky and independent Samantha Dearing balks when she learns the ball her father is hosting is nothing more than a matrimonial ambush. Taking a break from unwanted suitors, Samantha spots a thief fleeing her home. When the stranger ends up saving her brother’s life, she hides the only clue to his identity left behind–his boot–and resolves to find him herself.
When Samantha encounters the older brother of a student she tutors, all thoughts of the bootless mystery man vanish. Asher values family above wealth, a rare trait that opens her heart. Afraid she will discover his past misconduct, Asher tries to keep his distance, but when a series of suspicious accidents befall her, he vows to protect her, even though saving her life could mean losing her love.

Summary
Review by Donna F, Reviewer on Feb 10 2024
If the Boot Fits by Karen Whitmeyer is a fun and delightful twist to the Cinderella story with a western flare. I truly enjoyed watching Samantha and Asher’s relationship build.
Samantha’s dad is trying to find her a husband even though she doesn’t want any help. It was sweet that her dad had good intentions. Asher was such a great character and you are rooting for him.
The boot was such a fun magic slipper 🙂 Karen is a terrific writer and it was fun and enjoyable to see what she could do with this fairytale.
I highly recommend.
