She'd always read fairy tales. She didn't expect to find herself living one . . .Once upon a time, a princess was brought to a strange land for safekeeping, until the day the curse placed on her in infancy expired and she could return to her kingdom.Lucy Jordan is not that princess. But thanks to a case of mistaken identity, she's kidnapped by an evil enchantress's men and taken to a magical world, where she finds herself living out a story that seems awfully familiar. Meanwhile, Lucy's friend Dawn suspects the "aunts" who brought her up might have something to do with Lucy's disappearance, and she feels compelled to travel through the magical gateway she finds in the garden shed to find her friend. Now Lucy's rewriting the storybooks as she goes on the run with a handsome young squire and plots to save Dawn's rightful kingdom from the evil enchantress, while Dawn is drawn closer and closer to her true destiny, entirely unaware of how dangerous a spindle can be for her.A delightful new fantasy from the author of Enchanted, Inc. and Rebel Mechanics
