Just as Kaley Adams is finishing her PhD in folklore, she visits her friend Jobi’s home, which she thinks are some remote islands in the Pacific. However, when she wakes from her nap on the plane, she is another world, one that seems to be the birthplace of all the fairytales we know.
Unaware that she has travelled between worlds, Kaley is tasked with bringing back the king’s youngest son to marry the princess he is betrothed to in exchange for researching the local folklore for her dissertation. Paired with a handsome guide and a colorful cast of characters, Kaley sets out to find the prince. On their journey, they encounter characters from familiar fairytales, which at first are whimsical, but soon become dark and dangerous.
From the throne room of the king’s castle to the gingerbread house from Hansel and Gretel, Kaley must use her knowledge of fairytales to survive this new world and find the prince. But in the land of fairytales, nothing is ever as simple as it seems and Kaley must rely on her guide and their growing connection to get home safely.
This is a wonderful love story combining the genres of romance and fairytales for a truly magical Happily Ever After. This fantasy romance will expand Jude Deveraux’s brand and deliver the heart-fluttering romance her readers love from her.
