A Bit of Magic: A Collection of Fairy Tale Retellings (JL Anthology Book 5) Kindle Edition

The oldest story can be made new again, changed and altered until it is reimagined and restored. Pride interferes with happily-ever-afters: a proud princess is tested and tests the prince in return; a young thief is caught red-handed and must make amends; and a vain queen struggles to save her stepdaughter. Finding love is not a simple task: a hero searches for the ideal magical bride; an innocent librarian is charmed by a man with a menacing secret; a queen takes a spoiled prince as her sole deckhand; and a well-intentioned princess seeks to make things right with her father. Change causes chaos, for better or worse: a scheming cat seeks to better the lot of his daydreaming master; a cursed pirate captain is given a second chance when he finds a young stowaway; a spoiled teenager suffers the consequences of turning her best friend into a toad; and a thief and a rebel hiding secrets meet at a ball. Follow these characters on their journeys as eleven magical tales are turned on their heads and seen from new perspectives. Read more
