Lilliana's first assignment as a fairy godmother is to go undercover and keep one of Cinderella's descendants from taking a deadly wrong-turn with her life. But Jess Harrison doesn't believe in fairytales or happy endings. She intends to get rid of the annoying new girl. Especially because Jess's older brother seems to be ridiculously attracted to this so-called fairy godmother.
Award-winning author Kathleen Baldwin teamed up with actress/mystery writer Andrea Sisco to write a fun contemporary reversal on the age-old fairytale.
"... a story that girls and women of all ages can love ... a magical world you want to explore even after this story has ended." - Bestselling Author, Suzanne Ferrell, 5 stars.
DIARY OF A TEENAGE FAIRY GODMOTHER
A Fairy Godmother is not some overgrown pixie in a pink tutu. She's a guardian and a warrior, specially trained to protect Cinderella's descendants. Lilliana Skye is undercover at a Texas high school on her first assignment to save one of Cinderella's troubled great-granddaughters. Except, the minute they meet, everything goes terribly wrong.
Who wouldn't want their very own Fairy Godmother?
Jess Harrison, that's who.
She doesn't believe in fairytales, magic, or happily-ever-afters. The death of her oldest brother nuked her world. Grief sucks. Jess is tough, angry, and so intelligent, it's scary. If she ever did see a mythical fairy, she would probably stomp it into oblivion with her army boots.
But Jess has another brother. And when Jake meets the new girl, he falls hard. In Jess's universe, that means trouble. Shields up. Code red. Weapons loaded.
After Jess and Jake's oldest brother's tragic accident, their parents buried their grief in their jobs and turned into emotional zombies. Jake is the only family Jess really has left, and she's fiercely protective. She can't let her brother fall in love with a dangerous lunatic who claims to be a Fairy Godmother.
That's fine with Lilliana. Falling in love with a human is forbidden, not to mention... deadly.
And maybe, just maybe, she would be able to keep her wayward heart in check if she didn't have to protect him and Jess. Someone from the fairy realm is trying to kill all three of them, and Lilliana has to find out why before it's too late.
"I was hooked. This is a fast, fun read with more than enough world-building for fantasy fans" -Yvonne, 5 stars
Fans of contemporary fairytales, fairytale adaptations, and authors such as Shannon Hale, Gail Carson Levine, Marissa Meyer, and Diana Wynne Jones, will enjoy this novel.
AUTHORS' NOTE:
We set this story in a contemporary world because we believe there is a kind of magic all around us, inside each of us, just waiting to be discovered. Diary of a Teenage Fairy Godmother is about finding hope and learning to love, a tale meant to leave readers feeling triumphant over darkness.
