Books-On-Tour: Stone Broke Heiress, Danielle Owen-Jones

I am putting on my designer gear on to tell you about this fantastic read.



Cashing in on the plot:

Bella Whittington’s caviar-and-Cristal life comes crashing down when she walks in on her fiancé and best friend tangled up in page 34 of the Kama Sutra, limbs everywhere. But her plan to dull the pain with Daddy’s credit card is totalled by the news that they’ve lost the family business. Suddenly Bella’s both single and completely broke.


Shivering in her dingy new studio apartment after a traumatic incident with a homemade turmeric face mask (Hello Tangerina Jolie!), Bella realises she must pull up her Gucci socks and get a job, fast. But Dan, the gorgeous grumpy owner of the local soup kitchen, hates the Whittingtons, so a teensy lie about her surname gets Bella through the door, and set loose on the stove… Minestrone with a side of melted spatula, anyone?


When Bella’s ex returns with a golden ticket back to her glitzy old life, should she accept? Because that would mean no more box wine and frozen pizza nights with Dan. No more singalongs to the crackly kitchen radio. No more my-heart-is-as-melted-as-that-spatula moments when he finally cracks a reluctant smile… But if Dan finds out the truth about who she really is, will she even have the choice?


Bobs and Books honest review:

I laughed at the very first line and the rest did not disappoint. A great storyline that gets you straight into the drama and does not slow down.

This author makes the writing seem effortless as it was such a joy to read.


Bella's mum is hysterical and the cheeky one liners surrounding her character made me laugh-out-loud at times.


I'm not a soup eater but this story made me care about soup- more so in Dan's soup kitchen. Dan is a super character too-reliable, dependable and grounded. Him and Bella's relationship is entertaining to read (even though I wanted to just shake her naivety at times.)


This sparkles like a diamond tiara Bella was used to wearing.


Quick witted, sharp and fun.


A fantastic riches to rags read, and the transformation is sheer perfection.
