Resumen del Editor

Born under a hunter's moon, abandoned as a child, I was raised to be a powerful sorceress - okay, a mediocre sorceress. All right, I'm good at glamour and can make things sparkle, if my spells don't backfire. It was foretold long ago that I was a child of prophecy that would unite the fae and humans of Candor. The only problem, no one told me, and now the king wants me dead.

For I am Eden, one of the adoptive daughters of Lady Eville, and I have to attend the royal masquerade ball - not to win a prince, but to avenge my parents. Even if it means pretending to be a fairy godmother and wreaking a little havoc.

‘the glimmering ring that glimmered’

when i heard ‘the glimmering ring that glimmered’, i knew something was up. i laughed out loud bc how was that missed? everything else was okay. deff not as good as the first.

love

this was a wonderful take on a classic story. I absolutely loved every minute.

I wanted more…

First, loved the narrator. She did well keeping up with all the voices and keeping it consistent.

As for the story… I really loved the take on the classic, but I wanted more. I didn’t believe she was falling or even showing a high level respect for the prince like I feel like she should have. I feel like it would have been a much stronger story if she did. That said, I still enjoyed it a lot. I love the two leads and the story as a whole.

Can’t wait to go binge the next one.

Good Story

The story was really nice. The FMC had a lot of self doubt. It took her some time to come on to her own

A romance novel that even men can enjoy

The only problem is the volume of some of the voices can be a bit low and hard to catch. Other than that it’s a great book. Highly recommend.

Magic!!

I did not enjoy as much as the first one. But overall good story!! Loved the side character’s!!

super fun

I love the tale that has been made special and highly revised from the old tale super edgy.

interesting approach on fairytale retelling

I enjoyed this book a lot. it's a Cinderella fairy tale but I honestly was guessing until the end which one was Cinderella. I never enjoy people that keep saying how negative about themselves they are and it does do that a bit otherwise overall great concept and execution.

Cute, sweet and palate refresher

A second look in the series is sweet, cute. It is everything that you need in a feel good love story that has magic, backstabbing, mystery just overall good story.

Like all stories, there’s a few things that are going to rub somebody the wrong way or it’s gonna not tickle your fancy in every way known to man.
But so far, it’s a good series that hits all the good things. And they’re interconnecting stories but also their own. So you’re not gonna get burnt out on them

Cinderella meets Bachelor

Enjoyed the story with twists and turns. The small nods to the Disney princess original story were fun. But I found the main character to be too whiney during certain parts. I don’t like how during these insecure bouts the performer chose to read narrative in the same whiney voice. Made me want to skip it.
