Fairy Tales for Modern Times from Ballantine Books
Enchanted, INC.
When an ordinary young woman takes a job at a company that turns out to be extraordinary, sparks fly in more ways than one.
Office politics are more complicated when your new boss is a real ogre, bad blind dates are worse when there’s magic in the mix, and there are much, much worse ways to meet men than going to singles bars.
Once Upon Stilletos
"A princely wizard, Cinderella red stilettos, and a megalomaniac--what more could a girl ask for? ONCE UPON STILETTOS is a delightful urban fairytale with a dreamy hero and a country-wise Texas heroine who use their magical and non-magical charms to seek justice and unmask the villain. Just a few weeks in the life of a simple single girl..." -- bestselling author Patricia Rice
Shanna hasn't yet found her prince charming, and she lives with a collection of predatory houseplants, including a trained attack bougainvillea, the hibiscus that shares her office, and a Christmas cactus that's stuck with her through four jobs, three homes, and several boyfriends and men who didn't quite make it to boyfriend status.
