Bea’s to do list:
- Get the girl to the ball
- Engineer True Love’s Kiss
- Make a Happy Ever After
- DO. NOT. MESS. THIS. UP.
Easy, right…?
Apparently not. Bea, a wannabe fairy godmother, has finally been given a story of her own to manage – and to prove that cabbage fairies aren’t completely useless. Only, her heroine doesn’t want to marry the hero, and the ugly sister is bent on overthrowing the King. Worse still, the Royal Advisor seems to know a lot more about Bea and fairy godmothers than any human should…
Bea knows she should report all this to her boss. But that would mean admitting she’s a failure, that everything everyone says about cabbage fairies is true. Besides, how hard can it be to get her story back on Plot? Everyone wants to marry a Prince, don’t they…?

★ “A cracking read! Subverted fairy tales are one of my favourite sub-genres, and this is a great example.”
★ “What would happen if Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, Emma Newman and K.E. Mills (in her Accidental Sorcerer mode) got together and had a fairy tale themed writathon? This, my friend, is probably what would happen.”
