Reviews

"...a charming winter read..." -- Romantic Times BOOKclub

"Caldwell's light intrigues and bevy of supporting characters cast an old-fashioned spell on her modern Brooklyn romance." -- Kirkus Reviews

"...readers will identify with [Molly's] attempts to rise from the ashes." -- Publishers Weekly

"It has everything I could ask for in a book, a brilliant plot, brilliant characters, witty writing (I LOVE witty writing), it's snarky, it's just plain fantastic. Do pick up Vanity Fare, it will surprise you -- in the best way possible." -- Chick Lit Reviews

Author Bio

Megan Caldwell grew up in a remote town in New Hampshire where she devoured every book of fiction in her well-read parents' library. An English literature major at Barnard College with double minors in political science and religion, Megan wrote and edited reviews for a music industry magazine for fifteen years. Eventually, she became editor-in-chief and went on to develop conference programs for the industry. Now she is the community manager for Heroes and Heartbreakers, a romance novel website, where she blogs daily as Megan Frampton about the fiction she reads. She lives in Brooklyn with her husband and son.
