Laura Kenyon makes happily ever after desperately delicious! Stephanie Evanovich, New York Times bestselling author
What would happen if our most beloved fairy tale princesses lived in the same time, were the best of friends, and had the dreams, dilemmas, and libidos of modern women? How would their stories unfold after the wedding bells stopped ringing?
Years after turning her husband from beast back to man and becoming his queen, Belle finds out she's finally going to have a child. But before she can announce the news, she catches him cheating and watches her happily ever after go up in flames.
Turning to her friends for the strength to land with grace, she realizes she's not the only one at a crossroads:
- Cinderella, a mother of four drowning in royal duties, is facing a milestone birthday and questioning everything she's done (or hasn't) with her life.
- Rapunzel, an unapologetic bombshell with a big heart and a taste for trouble, is on a quest to make up for 20 years locked away in a tower.
- Penelopea, an outsider with a mother-in-law from hell, is harboring a secret that could ruin everything at any moment.
Think Bridgerton meets Desperate Housewives, with the friendship-forward wit of The Bold Type - all filtered through a fractured fairy-tale lens. Desperately Ever After is an adult fairy tale that sprinkles women's fiction with elements of fantasy and asks readers to rethink everything they know about happy endings.
With laughter, wine, and a brand-new take on old-fashioned chivalry, these friends see each other through life's trials one secret at a time. Featuring the wit of Jennifer Weiner, the warmth of Elin Hilderbrand, and the imaginative scope of Sarah J. Maas, this series reinvents fairy tales for readers who know that happy endings are rarely simple -- and never the whole story.
Amazon #1 bestseller in: Women's Fantasy Fiction, Women's Humorous Fiction, Paranormal and Urban Fantasy. National Indie Excellence Awards finalist. Readers' Favorite finalist.
