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 potion 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."
