Award winning songwriter Marsha D. Jenkins-Sander's powerful novel elaborates on the insecurities we all sometimes harbour. Feelings of confusion, resentment and self-worth as well as issues of sexual identity are cleverly explored through the characters of Rochelle and Dakota. How far would you go to gain somebody else's approval?

Rochelle Jackson is a woman born without, as she calls it, the 'pretty gene.' Longing to feel like 'Cinderella' at least once in her life, she harbours a deep seated resentment bred by years of rejection that becomes the destructive force behind her diabolical scheme to dethrone Dakota North, Rochelle's beautiful cousin and prima donna in her own right. When Rochelle lets loose with her vicious plan, it becomes an all-out war that will leave both parties changed forever.

'The intensity of Jealousy can burn in our souls so greatly that we are driven to stop at nothing to fit in the shoes of the one we are jealous of. Marsha D. Jenkins-Sanders writes a great story of being careful of what we wish for because we might just get it! Nicole M. Stevenson, First Cut's Radio Host.
