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. But everything goes terribly wrong. Who wouldn't want their very own Fairy Godmother? Jess Harrison, that's who. She doesn't believe in fairytale 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. Fortunately Jess has another brother, but when Jake meets the new girl he falls hard. In Jess's universe that means trouble. Her shields go up. Code red. Weapons loaded. Their oldest brother's tragic accident turned Jess and Jake's parents into emotional zombies. They avoided grieving and buried themselves in work. Jake is the only real 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, if she didn't have to protect Jake and Jess she might be able to keep her wayward heart in check.

| fairy godmother in training: Crisanta Knight: The Lost King Geanna Culbertson, 2019-11-01 Book 6 in the Crisanta Knight series. Oh what a difference a day makes. When I was back at Lady Agnue’s School for Princesses & Other Female Protagonists, I used to wonder how I would make it through an entire day of classes, magic training, and homework. As the legendary magic flux known as the Vicennalia Aurora emerged, I wondered how I could possibly overthrow the evil king of Camelot, defeat Glinda in Oz, and get back in time to stop the antagonists from breaking out of Alderon and invading my world of Book—all in one day. I guess that’s what good friends are for. Good friends, and magic. My epic powers to give life and take it away were getting stronger and being heightened by the Vicennalia Aurora, so I had the ammunition to challenge every obstacle and villain that came our way. However, one problem remained: How could I unleash my magic to achieve our goals and defeat our enemies while keeping the power from corrupting me? From Merlin to the Fairy Godmother Supreme, everywhere I’d gone in recent days I’d been supplemented by powerful people who all thought they knew what I was capable of and how my morality should develop. But they didn’t understand my burden. I wanted to save all the realms that needed me; I wanted to save everyone. But could I do that and save myself from succumbing to the disease ingrained in my magic? I didn’t know. I sure missed the days of homework though. |

But she has nowhere else to go, not even back to her old life in Mundane, until her friend and co-trainee wishes herself into a damsel in distress.Not knowing who to trust: her boss, her slithery familiar, or her own Bump of Direction, she has to rely on herself, her real world failures, and her sense of the absurd to survive in this imaginary garden with real trolls to make her clients' happy endings happen.=====An Excerpt====Again, for a few seconds, Maven lost all sensory information, suspended in dizzy darkness. Her ears popped, and she plopped back in the chair in the test room.Fiona removed the sensors, visor, and gloves without a word and turned back to the machine, which now looked like a pile of computer parts duct-taped to a crystal ball.Maven stretched her neck and arms. “Quite a setup you have there. Is that the product?” She stared, disoriented. She felt like she had run ten miles over wet sand. Fiona didn't answer, but moved slightly to keep Maven from seeing what she was doing. Tricks of the light made Fiona's hair pearly pink. “How does it work—biofeedback?” Maven wondered about street price of this rig. Did they need sales reps or beta-testers? Bump of Direction just sat there, drinking it all in, but not spitting any of it back. At least this interview had been fun. When Fiona turned around, her expression was one of controlled professionalism winning out over some other emotion, just covered at the last with a smile. The Bump did notice, but wasn't showing any cards yet. Raise and call.Fiona clasped Maven's hand and patted it. “You did very well for your first time with no training. Come into my office and let us discuss your duties. Can you start immediately?”Maven slowly took her hand back. “Yes, I'm available. What's the job?”“Fairy godmother, of course.” Fiona smiled. “We make wishes come true.”The hair on the back of Maven's neck stood at attention. The Bump hit red alert. She crossed her arms and set her feet flat on the floor, braced apart and unmovable. Finally, her adrenaline got through to her language center. “Do what? Fairy godmother? Are you for real?”Fiona's expression froze for a second, her smile drooping as it thawed out. “We do not use the word real in polite company, but as you use the word, yes, I am a real fairy godmother.” |
