What happens when a princess accidentally fractures her fairy tale by fleeing to the real world? Bestselling author Alex London turns classic fairy tales on their heads in this fast-paced, funny fantasy about friendship and facing your fears. For fans of The School for Good and Evil and the Never Afters series.
Princess Rana loves her friends (all fellow fairy tale escapees), loves her school (the HEA, an academy for fairy tale royalty), and loves punk rock (the best music genre). But she does not love frogs . . . especially demanding frog princes who follow her home. Rana fled her story because of one frog prince in particular, and she has no plans of ever going back to that stuffy place full of rules. But then her frog prince shows up at the academy's gate. And he's not alone. Dozens of duplicate frog princes have followed him to the real world. Worse still, a shadowy monster is in hot pursuit, one that dissolves fairy tale characters into nothing, erasing their stories. To save everyone she cares about, Rana will have to do the one thing she vowed she'd never to do--return to her Once Upon Time.
Acclaimed and bestselling author Alex London weaves together several beloved fairy tales in this fast-paced, funny, and slyly subversive adventure about figuring out who you want to be. The daring escapes, sinister monsters, familiar friends, and surprise twists will keep even reluctant readers glued to the pages. The Princess Protection Program is for fans of the Never Afters and the Descendants series, The School for Good and Evil, and the Fairly True Tales series.
This rebellious princess is about to discover her story is bigger--and stranger--than she ever imagined.
- A Reluctant Hero: Rana never wanted to save anyone, especially not the pushy frog prince who upended her life. But when a shadowy monster threatens her friends, she'll have to be the hero her story needs.
- Modern Fairy Tale: Welcome to the HEA, a boarding school where escaped princesses learn curse breaking, sword fighting, and the mysterious art of eating an Oreo.
- A Wild Quest: To defeat a monster that erases stories, Rana must return to the world she fled--a journey filled with duplicate princes, a helpful superfan, and a witch who's more into cooking than cursing.
- Subverting Expectations: A frog prince who's not the hero, a servant who's the key to everything, and a princess who'd rather rock out than be rescued. This isn't the fairy tale you remember.
- Perfect for Reluctant Readers: With fast-paced action, laugh-out-loud humor, and twists on every page, this adventure is a surefire hit for any reader--especially those who think they don't like fairy tales.
