Cinderella Was a Liar

Cinderella Was a Liar

"Cinderella Was A Liar: The Real Reason You Can't Find or Keep a Prince" is a popular self-improvement book written by Relationships Expert, Brenda Della Casa, a journalist and former reality show casting director. The book was published by McGraw-Hill in 2007.

The title of the book is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the popular children's tale of Cinderella.Della Casa used interviews with nearly 1,000 men and over 500 women and came up with the book's basic contention is that in order have your best romance you must first be your best self. The chapters in the book include: The 12 Sisters No Prince Wants to Date, How to Toss The Proverbial Bridial Binder, The Lies We Speak Into The Mirror and One Night Stands and Other Bad Potions.

In Cinderella Was a Liar, Della Casa argues that too many women are caught up in the fairy tale myth and need a "romantic reality check." She spends a good portion of the book identifying traits, actions and reactions that women can eliminate and control in order to "re-write their romantic realities and create their own happily ever after's."

Della Casa's is frequently cited on LifetimeTV.com, a popular woman's site associated with Lifetime Television Network, ediets, a popular nutrition site, IVillage, a popular women's site and various magazines and web sites here and in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the popular comedy group, The Phat Phree and contributed to "Look At My Striped Shirt: Confessions of The People You Love To Hate" which was published by Broadway in 2007. Della Casa has been a guest on numerous television and radio shows
