“Readers will be swept away by this enchanting story.” —Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW
A PopSugar Best New Book of December
CAN YOU SKIP THE STORYBOOK BEGINNING…
Novelist Juniper Blossom has romance down to a science in her bestselling books. But she’s not about to settle for just any man—a happy ending looks different for everyone, and she needs to find the guy whose idea of forever matches her own. Try telling that to her adorable, meddling grandmothers, though. If she doesn’t find a man soon, they’re going to find one for her. Which is why Juniper has prepared for a trip home to Ever After by fibbing that her sexy, smart, sweet best friend Tomas is her fiancé! He doesn’t believe in love at all, but that doesn’t matter if they’re just pretending…
ON THE WAY TO THE HAPPY ENDING?
Divorce attorney Tomas Rivera is as proud of Juniper’s authorial success as she is, but that doesn’t mean he buys into her books’ premise. His career is proof enough that true love is the real fairy tale—and everyone knows fairy tales aren’t real. But he can never say no to gorgeous Juniper, and an “engagement” might move him one legal brief closer to partner at his old-fashioned firm. Yet playing the part suddenly starts to mean feeling it, especially when a kiss just for show turns up the heat between them. Is happily ever after possible for two people who aren’t on the same page when it comes to love?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Proving that some series only get better with each book, DeWylde's third Fairy Godmothers, Inc. romantic fantasy (after Men Are Frogs) packs an emotional wallop while still delivering all the charm and humor fans expect. Though romance author Juniper Blossom doesn't yet realize it, her three grandmothers are really fairy godmothers and they're utterly determined to see Juniper paired with her best friend, divorce attorney Tomas Rivera. Juniper and Tomas have been friends since childhood and are the perfect complements. There's just one problem: cynical Tomas doesn't believe in love, while Juniper is a hopeless romantic. When the pair decide to fake an engagement to get the godmothers off their backs, they must navigate their differing viewpoints and evolving friendship. The couple's undeniable chemistry would be enough to keep readers rooting for them, but DeWylde goes deeper, highlighting the little considerations that make a relationship work, like laughing together and preparing each other's favorite foods just because. The strong focus on communication makes the leads' transition from friends to lovers believable and resonant. Readers will be swept away by this enchanting story that argues that fairy tale endings are within reach for those who put in the work.
