Product Description

Product Description

Somewhere over the rainbow ... is a giant dumpster. At least, that's how things appear to Frankie Wunder when she discovers her husband's been cheating on her and there are no fairy tale endings on her horizon. But Frankie, a successful South Beach realtor, isn't prepared to leave her future up to the wave of anyone's wand. Determined to find a man who meets her criteria for the perfect husband and father of the child she desperately wants, Frankie goes on a diet, assembles a list of prospective candidates, and immerses herself in the South Beach dating scene. But is a man who's rich, successful, and willing to take care of her what Frankie really wants? As she works her way through a deceitful doctor, a lecherous lawyer, and a rakish real estate executive--the men most South Beach Cinderellas would gladly lose a slipper to--Frankie realizes her dream men are nightmares and her true Prince Charming is nothing like the guy in the fairy tale.

What a funny, well-written book! 3 July 2011
By Deb Miller - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm a skeptic about e-book originals, but decided to take a chance on this one since the author is an award-winning, traditionally published writer. Wow. I'm glad I did. What a funny, well-written book! The story-telling has the sure-handedness of an experienced writer who knows exactly what she's doing. The plot pulled me along, the characters were witty and fully fleshed out, and the writing itself is first class. I loved Frankie Wunder, despite her insecurities and some foolish choices she makes, because she's not a moper. When circumstances don't go her way, she takes charge and tries to change them. The cast of supporting characters is wonderful--Esperanza, Frankie's belly-dancing, flower-child mother; Neil Fogelman, the unkempt MBA/lawyer who rides around on an old motorcycle doing the books for small South Beach businesses; Roberta, Frankie's glamorous redheaded friend who knows more than a thing or two about snaring a husband, and of course, the husband prospects that Frankie dates in her quest for a "perfect" man who will father her child and marry her--in that order. I finished the book with a sense of deep satisfaction and a craving to read another Sharon Potts novel.

Nobody dies, but what a great, funny and fast moving ride! 19 July 2011
By Delia Foley - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
What can you expect when a thriller writer like Sharon Potts goes about writing a humorous love story about husband-hunting? That question, a big one in my mind, dissolved after the first few pages of "South Beach Cinderella." Potts is back with her trademark flesh and blood characters, this time featuring the lovable heroine Frankie Wunder whose quest I got so wrapped up in that I found myself doing that page turning, can't-put-this- down, thing.

Potts is still in thriller mode as far as keeping the reader on edge to see what happens next. The action clock is always ticking. Frankie's is one of them. Married for 12 years and still childless, she discovers that other women have been getting much more of her husband's loving than she. Frankie is a highly successful Miami Beach realtor and does not dawdle around making decisions. Hubby #1 is history, and Hubby #2 is to be rounded up post haste, marry her, and father a child. All candidtates must be rich, successful, and respected, and must agree to take care of her. Frankie is an organized person and knows how to go about a task, with method and focus. And she is pretty. With the exception of her choice of first husband, she makes few mistakes and is not used anymore to failure.

Frankie, big surprise, turns out to be just like you and me and everyone else, never mind her self-admitted control-freak personality and money-making talents. They are part of what's funny, and eventually Frankie finds that out for her ownself. The real Frankie is a sweet, totally human lady with the same problem we all have, or have had, or are having again - trying to figure out who is the right spouse - and that is whether you are a man or a woman, because guys will like this book as well as any female.

Loads of laughs, great writing, and a sweet story about hetting to know one's heart.

A Loveable Ditz 17 Sep 2011
By Germaine - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is one of those books that needs the reader to suspend all belief and just read the story. We are supposed to go along with the idea that a smart, sane, contemporary woman who is capable of having a successful career selling houses that go for around $4 million would be capable of hopping into bed with four men she barely knows in the hope of conceiving a child and finding a superb husband within a couple of months of finding her husband cheating on her. It doesn't compute.

Having said that, I did finish this book, and the plot did keep moving right along. The whole book is a series of re-hashed chic lit scenes, but the writer is good enough that I kept on reading. Frankie, the heroine, has some pretty interesting girlfriends, and her soon-to-be ex is a stereotype, but a well-drawn one that I could live with.

Mercifully, the book has fewer of the grammatical errors that plague many e-books.

If we were back in college I'd call this book a solid C.
