Here is another author I have not read before with this being not the norm either on what I read. The retail part intrigued me with having seen this author around though I would try this one. Her characters are ones you can grab onto and follow willingly through their story. Emma and Daniel entertain you in this one. Do not know why this empire picked my interest but it did. The attraction between the two is like a slow boil but has us simmering also. Some of that though was due to Daniel who got me giving him the one eye once in awhile. If family is important to you this one will be a good match for to read. Other ones in this make for a balanced read. Of course it would not be any good without the drama which is plenty. Enjoyed from beginning to end.
I’m a sucker for a fairy tale retelling, and Cinderella has always been THE fairy tale that I judge all other stories against. This Emma feels very different from the girl we barely got to meet at the end of the first book. This Emma is nothing like that curt, angry young woman; she’s vivacious and charming, and just so bloody earnest. Daniel is a man facing Solomon’s Dilemma: either he can make his mother happy or he can be happy for himself. As the situation stands, these two are mutually exclusive outcomes. And I had to feel for Daniel; he was in a Catch-22 with no easy solution in sight. I loved watching this pair fall for each other. It was so adorably sweet. I thought Emma was a bit naïve at times, but I can’t say that I’d behave a lot differently when faced with similar circumstances. Likewise, I thought Daniel came off as a bit of a wimp when facing his mother a lot of the time, yet I know I didn’t handle my own overbearing family any differently. These things that sound like criticisms actually made me connect with and love these characters even more. I can’t wait to see what in store for the next Eden sister.

Their long lost sister is settling in … and steeling the spotlight! Emma is trying to get to know her new-found sisters Sophie and Mindy, but isn’t exactly sure how to meander the difficulty of not having been a part of them over the years. One seems friendly and helpful, the other seems to ignore her as much as possible. Will she be able to win them over or will the fact that she’s falling for the enemy put her in danger of blowing the sisterhood up before she even feels like a member? Fun series!
Emma Stewart is trying her best to settle into a new life after being made an equal part heiress to the Eden department store fortune along with the two sisters she didn’t know she had. She’s not used to the money, the prestige or the powerful game of cat and mouse that she seems to find herself in the middle of.
British heir Daniel Stone is in New York on his mother’s behalf. She wants to open a new store, and sticking it to her long-time rivals at Eden’s is just icing on the cake. Imagine his surprise when the woman he’s drawn to at a party one night just happens to be the newest sister. It’s convenient to try to get inside information, but he’s too busy falling hard for her to try to play the game.
Emma has waited a long time to find her happy ending. A surprise revelation has her believing in the fantasy until her fairytale comes crashing down around her. Daniel is everything she’s ever wanted. He charms his way into her heart, but will her prince turn out to be a devil in disguise? A Cinderella Seduction casts a spell on the senses. From emotional reveals to dangerous temptation, Booth reminds the heart what it means to love.
This is a really sweet story, Emma is the newest member in the Eden family and only learnt she had sisters when the head of the family and company dies and leaves her a third of the company.
Emma meets Daniel and is immediately attracted to the British man, but the reason he’s in town is to open a rival store. Can these two overcome the family drama and rivalry to have a real HEA?
The storyline is interesting and sweet, the characters are incredibly likable and really a bit naive. The story is well-written, and even though it is the second story in The Eden Empire series it can be read as a standalone.

Well this was fun . Adultery, tons of secrets, a long lost child, and drama for dayssssss, and I loooove it .
This was a page turner, it had me on the edge of my seat worrying about what would fall out of the closet next.
Emma and Daniel are pit against each other through business, and it was worth all my time following along to see them extricate themselves from it.
Mrs. Booth has another winner in this series, I think you will thoroughly enjoy.
I love a book with glitz, glam and taste of scandal and Karen Booth really delivers in A CINDERELLA SEDUCTION. I can’t wait to read more of the Eden Empire series.
This was a good book. I haven’t read the first book in the series…so this book was a little off for me, but I still liked it.
What a great premise! Emma recently discovered that she’s a member of one of the richest families in Manhattan. She knows nothing about the longstanding feud between her new family and Daniel’s. Falling for him could threaten everything she holds dear. Karen Booth did a fantastic job of transporting me to the elite world of the Eden Empire. A powerful, passionate love story.
Second book in The Eden Empire Series. I this book we get story of Emma and Daniel. Emma for whole life was a cousin to Eden’s and then she found out that she is one of them. Daniel is a Stone, his family is a rival of Eden’s. They want to open a store in New York, he is lookin for locations. Then one day he meets Emma, there is a spark…then they both find out that he is a Stone and she is an Eden.
Loved this book, storyline is great, characters are great.
Cinderella Seduction by Karen Booth is the second book in the Eden Sisters trilogy and a modern Romeo and Juliet story. Daniel Stone and Emma Eden come from a long family feud. It doesn’t matter that they have so much chemistry that they may combust within sight of one another. These two are destined for doom. His mother has so much hatred for her deceased grandmother that the only thing the two of them will ever be able to accomplish is a short term tryst. I love watching these two star crossed lovers beat the odds. Such a great read.

This is the second book of the Eden Empire saga from Karen Booth. It’s steamy and a great addition to the saga.
What an emotional story this book turned out to be. It was also charming as well at times. It really was a story of two honorable people being torn between family and businesses. That was well portrayed.
Emma really was thrown head first into the business. Her sisters weren’t really helping her all that much at first. It was more a sink-or swim situation for her. She did an amazing job of it considering all the pressure and newness of everything. She went from being practically isolated to being pushed front and center.
Daniel was essentially a good man with an incredibly pushy, powerful mother. One who favored a now dead son. Not a healthy relationship at all.
Daniel’s dogs were an added nice touch to the story.
I liked how the struggles were resolved and that Daniel and Emma do get their H.E.A.
