Book Description

At 900 years old, Nissa is finally ready to follow her mother’s path and become the best Fairy Godmother she can. She’s not thrilled when her first assignment turns out to be a teenage human girl with self-esteem issues, but she knows she has to start somewhere. Her assignment has dealt with bullies since her freshman year and they haven’t let up. If Nissa can’t help her regain her self-confidence her future is bleak.

To complicate matters Nissa experiences all the signs that she’s met the being fated for her. This impossibility distracts her from her purpose. After all, fairies and humans aren’t meant for each other. How can her heart believe otherwise? Can Nissa successfully complete her first assignment as a Fairy Godmother? Will the fates allow Nissa and Levi to be together? And even if they do, will Levi believe Nissa once she reveals the truth?

Review:

I loved this book!  It was a smashup between romance and a fairy tale…literally!  Nissa is a sweet but somewhat naive fairy that just wants to help people.  Vicky is an insecure high school senior with a hunky older brother, Levi.  Vicky is Nissa’s project but what she doesn’t plan on is Levi and the attraction to him and could he be her soulmate?  I like how there are families that help the godparents while they are in this world before heading back to their world until the next assignment.

We give this 4 1/2 paws and highly recommend picking it up next time you want a fun uplifting book to read.  And a bargain at $2.99 for the eBook!
