Jessica's Review: If the Shoe Fits by Stephanie Rowe

If the Shoe Fits, by Stephanie Rowe, is told by Paris Jackson, an aspiring entrepreneur who spends her nights creating the perfect running shoe with her best friends, and her days working a typical 9-5 job where she fantasizes about her new boss. Paris doesn't believe in marriage anymore after her ex-husband left her, but soon finds herself caught between her almost boyfriend, her almost perfect boss, and an ex-husband who wants her back. Her mom, who has always been the backbone to her life suddenly is changing everything the two of them ever believed in and Paris finds herself torn between not only the three men, but her job and her dream as well. Soon though, she will discover that the answer to all of her problems are simply a pair of designer heels. I really enjoyed this book as the words painted pictures of places I wanted to be. I wanted to meet each character and see if they really were as Paris described them. The twists in the plot were believable, but they still caught you by surprise and kept you guessing at what crazy catastrophe was going to happen next. The reader easily comes to love the characters and all their little quirks. It really isn't much of a teen reader selection, but is easily enjoyable.
