To me, these were like finding Easter eggs throughout. One of the things I loved so much about Geekerella was all the little details connected to the original Cinderella story. Obviously, this is not the book's fault, it is mine. While I did still like this a lot, Ashley Poston's writing is just so fun, I think it suffered a bit because I don't really know the story of The Prince and the Pauper. I legit swooned over that story for a week! Unfortunately, for me, this one wasn't quite as enjoyable as Geekerella. I was so happy to return to ExcelsiCon and the whole fan vibe surrounding it. We follow the two girls as they swap lives and learn a valuable lesson: the grass is not always greener on the other side of that damn fence. Imogen is hoping to save her favorite character, Princess Amara, from being wiped out of the Starfield universe forever.Ĭertainly, Jessica, who plays Amara on screen would agree with that goal, right? When people end up confusing one for the other, a brilliant life swap takes place. Imogen Lovelace is a fangirl extraordinaire, who will be attending the same Con.įurthermore, she happens to look surprisingly like Jessica Stone. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be working out that way.Īfraid of being typecast, Jessica wants to distance herself from Starfield as much as she can, but with the sequel in the works and the fate of her character up in the air, it is becoming a challenge.Īs she prepares to attend the same Con that her costar, Darien, met the love of his life, Elle Wittimer, at the previous year, Jessica begins to feel overwhelmed by pressure to be something she's not. Jessica Stone, gorgeous teen actress, had planned to use the Starfield reboot as a stepping stone to greater projects. As these "princesses" race to find the script-leaker, they must rescue themselves from their own expectations, and redefine what it means to live happily ever after. That's easier said than done when the girls step into each other's shoes and discover new romantic possibilities, as well as the other side of intense fandom. But when the script for the Starfield sequel leaks, and all signs point to Jess, she and Imogen must trade places to find the person responsible. When a case of mistaken identity throws look-a-likes Imogen and Jess together, they quickly become enemies. If this year's ExcelsiCon isn't her last, she'll consider her career derailed. The problem is, Jessica Stone-the actress who plays Princess Amara-wants nothing more than to leave the intense scrutiny of the fandom behind. Imogen Lovelace is an ordinary fangirl on an impossible mission: save her favorite character, Princess Amara, from being killed off from her favorite franchise, Starfield.

The Prince and the Pauper gets a modern makeover in this adorable, witty, and heartwarming young adult novel set in the Geekerella universe by national bestselling author Ashley Poston.
