"If the Shoe Fits encompasses everything I love about rom-coms. I laughed, I swooned, I smiled. Another hit for Julie Murphy!" —Colleen Hoover, #1 New York Times best-selling author of HopelessIf the shoe doesn’t fit, maybe it’s time to design your own.Cindy loves shoes. A well-placed bow or a chic stacked heel is her form of self-expression. As a fashion-obsessed plus-size woman, she can never find designer clothes that work on her body, but a special pair of shoes always fits just right. With a shiny new design degree but no job in sight, Cindy moves back in with her stepmother, Erica Tremaine, the executive producer of the world’s biggest dating reality show. When a contestant on Before Midnight bows out at the last minute, Cindy is thrust into the spotlight. Showcasing her killer shoe collection on network TV seems like a great way to jump-start her career. And, while she’s at it, why not go on a few lavish dates with an eligible suitor? But being the first and only fat contestant on Before Midnight turns her into a viral sensation—and a body-positivity icon—overnight. Even harder to believe? She can actually see herself falling for this Prince Charming. To make it to the end, despite the fans, the haters, and a house full of fellow contestants she’s not sure she can trust, Cindy will have to take a leap of faith and hope her heels— and her heart—don’t break in the process.Best-selling author Julie Murphy’s reimagining of a beloved fairy tale is an enchanting story of self-love and believing in the happy ending each and every one of us deserves.

"This book was so cute, it was a mixture of the Bachelor & Cinderella 👠. Henry was so good to Cindy! "

"4.5⭐<br/><br/>I had such a good time reading If the Shoe Fits! The main character is plus size, and delightfully confident (I read another book last year with a plus size MC with internalized fatphobia and it was difficult at times). Anyway, I felt much better about If the Shoe Fits, and I really liked Cindy. I think this is the first time I've ever seen a Cinderella story in which the family mostly got along. It's definitely different. I loved the reality TV environment & the main characters' relationship. <br/><br/>I'm going to make a vague comment to avoid spoilers - the ending doesn't really stick the landing, and it was too rushed. I also have some questions about the way things worked out, but it's fine. <br/><br/>I loved this book, and I can't wait to see what happens in the next books in the series.<br/><br/>Content notes - main character experiences grief and fatphobia"
"This is one of the cutest novels I have ever read. I flipping loved it! Especially because it had a plus sized main character, but it didn't follow all of the cliches that most books have with plus sized characters. Instead of trying to make it all about weight and making it seem like it's "so incredible that a plus sized person can actually find love", it mostly focused on the fact that she is a person who falls in love and has her own passions who just happens to be bigger. I loved it."
"I enjoyed the book, took about 35 ish pages to get into it! 3.5/5"
