My Nails and My Book Review - At the Stroke of Midnight by Tara Sivec

**NetGalley**

Title: At the Stroke of Midnight

Series: The Naughty Princess Club #1

Author: Tara Sivec

Goodreads Summary: Meet the Naughty Princess Club: a brand new series from USA Today bestselling author Tara Sivec that introduces readers to Fairytale Lane and the hilarity—and romance—that ensue when three women start a new business to make it rain.

Once upon a time Cynthia was the perfect housewife. Between being the President of the PTA and keeping her home spotless without a hair (or her pearls) out of place, her life was a dream come true. Her husband was once her knight in shining armor, but now he’s run off with all their money…and the babysitter.

Dressed as a princess at the annual Halloween block party on Fairytale Lane, she meets two other “princesses” also facing money troubles: antique store owner Ariel and librarian Isabelle. When the women are invited to wear their costumes to a party where they’re mistaken for strippers, Cindy, Ariel, and Belle realize that a career change could be the best way to make their money problems go bippity-boppity-boo.

But can structured Cindy approach a stripper pole without sanitizing wipes? And could the blue-eyed anti-prince that has been crossing her path become Cindy’s happily ever after? At the Stroke of Midnight is a hilarious, empowering story where princesses can save themselves while slaying in stilettos.

My Review: **I voluntarily read this ARC**
Warning - do not eat or drink anything while reading this book. You will damage your e-reader/book if you attempt it. This is a typical Tara Sivec style rom-com. It is crude and obscene, yet absolutely hilarious. The plot is predictable, yet it has some unique and unexpected moments. I'm really looking forward to the next book.

My Manicure: I cannot believe how hilariously perfect this manicure is. I started out with Sinful Colors Cinderella. I have a love/hate relationship with this polish. It is really pretty, but it takes 4-5 coats and still isn't fully opaque. I stamped the stripper with Bundle Monster XL 303 and Straight Up Black. Then, since she needed stripper glitter boobs, I stamped again using Vapid Stardust.
