First of all, thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the digital arc.
I requested this novel because I’ve always remembered the Fairy Godmothers’ and they were my favorite characters from childhood. This story was a creative take on the fairy tales the most of us grow up with. It makes me want to go back and read all those Goldenbook copies I cherished. As someone who is new to the romance genre I didn’t expect to like this book as much as I do. It was the perfect balance of a few genres without being overwhelming on the love aspect. The best part is the characters, even the ones who aren’t from Ever After. I also appreciate the twist on the hero’s journey. I read this in one setting, staying up late/early to finish it. I’m already anxiously awaiting the sequel.

Real fairy godmothers, a fake wedding, second chance romance with a splash of magic and a bit of fairy dust sprinkled on top.
“I don’t believe in fate. I believe in here. I believe in now. I believe in us.”
Fairy Godmothers, Inc. by Saranna DeWylde is the story of 3 meddling fairy godmothers trying to save their magical town by setting up previous lovers Lucky and Ransom. For me it was Petunia, Jonquil, and Bluebonnet that stole the show. They were sassy in an adorable grandmotherly way and fully won my heart; they were hilarious. I was slow to warm up to the romance, but it was sweet and paced pretty well. The blend of the different fairy tales and characters were just enough to not take away from anything else. The only thing that I had a difficult time with was the so called incident, for me it didn’t seem to be very realistic with how much of an issue it became.
“Much like life. It’s meant for living.”
Overall this was a fun read and I look forward to the next book.

Sometimes you just need a feel-good happy (if not a little steamy and maybe a bit of a relationship two-step) little romance to make your day a bit brighter. Fairy Godmothers, Inc. totally delivered.
In the faraway land of Ever After, Missouri, 3 meddling little fairy godmothers live to make all your dreams come true. Well, sort of... if their magic is working. Petunia, Jonquil, and Bluebonnet, the aforementioned three godmothers are having a wee bit of a problem getting their magical juices back up and flowing. So they decided they were going to open up their town of Ever After, Missouri, the secret epicenter of enchantment, as a destination wedding resort town. Because, what better way to power up your magical town than with love sweet, sweet love? So the 3 loving (read: meddling) godmothers set to stage a faux wedding of their one and only failure couples and separate godchildren(?).
Lucky has always thought her name was a cosmic joke and a bit of a curse. Everything she does goes wrong. Luckily, (ha!) there are some people in her life that are immune to the mayhem that always surrounds her. When her adorable and loving godmothers ask for a favor, Lucky can't refuse, even if that means facing and faking a marrying her first love and ex-boyfriend, Ransom. The lingering embarrassment of their relationship, the Embarrassing Incident that neither of them will ever live down, and subsequent breakup has haunted her for years.
Ransom Payne has come a long way since his college days and being widely and infamously known as "The Boy Who Couldn't". He's now a successful chocolatier billionaire and all his success can be attributed to his fairy godmothers. So when they come calling and asking for his help in creating a wedding destination resort, he can't refuse even if that means facing the girl that got away and his completely embarrassing past. But as Lucky and Ransom meet again they discover that sometimes things just can't be left in the past and that getting older doesn't make the obstacles you walked away from in your youth any easier.
Fairy Godmothers, Inc. was super cute. I loved the Once Upon a Time angle of skewing our fav fairy tale characters. Red and Granny, The evil queen, etc. so much fun. Ransom and Lucky were cute can their attraction was undeniable but sometimes they got a bit annoying with the two-step (but usually that's a "me" thing and not necessarily a "book" thing). The secondary characters were fun and I absolutely can't wait for more in this series!

Fairy Godmothers, Inc. by Saranna DeWylde is a story of magical realism in which fairy godmothers are real, fairy tales can come true and magic is a lot closer than you think. Lucky Fujiki and Ransom Payne share a trio of godmothers with whom they spent every summer. Lucky and Ransom also have a shared history that neither likes to talk about, mostly because, despite her name, Lucky has always considered herself a beacon for bad luck. When her so-called bad luck continually prevented a romantic relationship with Ransom, she said something unforgivable and the two have spoken since.
Petunia, Bluebonnet and Jonquil Blossom are fairy godmothers and despite living in Ever After, their magic is fading. To spark their magic and help their godchildren, they decide to host a wedding in Ever After. Love, after all, can cure almost anything, even a magical dry spell. But things get more complicated when Lucky, Ransom and the godmothers try to share their town with the world.
I found this to be a fun story where magic is real, love can conquer all and that sometimes second chances are even better than the first. I look forward to more in the series.

When your godmothers ask you for help, of course you say yes. Even if to help them, you have to fake marry your college love, the one that got away, the one that you couldn’t make it work with. That’s what happens to Lucky and Ransom. In order to help their godmothers and their struggling little town, the6 agree to fake marry to bring a booming wedding business to the small town. However feelings linger, but when Lucky bring unlucky wherever she goes, will they ever be able to make it work?
A cute story with all of its predictable love lines. A story of magic and love, friendships and relationships. There’s so much room for more stories to follow more characters and he godmothers more. There was just something about this book that didn’t mesh well with me, I can’t put my finger on it. Overall a nice read.

A fairy tale set in Ever After, Missouri, where three fairy godmother’s magic is in need a happily ever after to boost the towns enchantment.
Former college sweethearts, Lucky and Ransom, are brought back together under the premise of a “fake” marriage to encourage others to hold their weddings in town so love will reign supreme fueling the shrinking charm of the town. A scandal has plagued these former lovers but not diminished their feelings for each other.
Can seeing each other again after so much time apart ignite forgiveness to face their fears and take risks even after how they left each other all those years ago? Can meddling fairy godmothers let them explore the road to the castle alone to have their happily ever after?
The book is filled with references to the many fairy tales we have all grown-up with from Sleeping Beauty to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs but these dwarfs are named after beers. Marchen for adults!
A fun light-hearted read just give it time to develop this second-chance romance.
Thank you NetGalley for this ARC publication for a honest review.

Although this was an easy read with really cute fairy tale elements, it felt like the author tried to start too many other stories instead of focusing on the main couple.
I enjoyed it but I would have preferred more with the main couple, less constant meddling, and fewer storylines.

In a fairy tale world, everything ends up happily ever after. In these crazy times of Covid and civil unrest, I needed a picker upper and this book fit the Bill. Three fairy godmothers need to restore their energy and come up with a plan to hold fairy tale type weddings in their town called, Ever After. Lucky is their goddaughter, and does not fit her name since bad luck seems to follow her. In love with Ransom, Lucky agrees to a fake wedding to help kickstart Fairy Godmothers,Inc. This was a cute, fast read, with plenty of magic.Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.

Fairy Godmothers, Inc. was just the pick-me-up that I was needing in these crazy times. The book revolves around three fairy godmothers whose wands stop working because their town has run out of love. Enter: our main character (not-so) Lucky, who actually attracts bad luck. Lucky had a falling out with her former college sweetheart, Ransom, and the godmothers step in with a fake marriage plot full of laughs (and mischief) to answer the ultimate question: can someone love her no matter what?

It took me such a long time to finish this book and that's why I'm rating it lower. I really liked the beginning even though I thought Lucky's "curse" was a bit over the top.
My main criticism is the ending. I know this is a romance and all but the resolution happened too fast and I was offended on Lucky's behalf by Ramson's behaviour. They should have discussed what happened a lot more and not get married within seconds of her accepting his "apology". The ending just really irritated me and that overpowered my initial enjoyment of the story.

Although I am not normally a romance reader, I am a huge fairy tale lover, so the premise here just sounded too cute to pass up! Both Lucky Fujiki and Ransom Payne share three godmothers - Petunia (Petty), Jonquil and Bluebonnet. While Ransom knows the true nature of these special women, Lucky does not. But that sort of fits with Lucky's life - she hardly lives up to her name - just brushing up against her can cause her un-luck to impact others. Very few people in her life are immune to this curse-like effect and when in college and dating Ransom, he proved to definitely not to be one of the immune.
But their godmothers need their help in reviving the magic of their special town of Ever After, Missouri - and their meddling brings Lucky and Ransom back together again. The story weaves in multiple fairy tale characters in and includes some pretty funny moments. It borders a bit on the cartoonish at times (there are giant, concussion-causing cherries!), but it all makes for lighthearted fun. The writing feels a little clunky at times, though and relies heavily on the dialogue to reveal the backstory, move the plot forward and generally develop the characters.
Still, I did enjoy the antics of the characters and the book's originality. And while there are some predictable elements to the plot - it's to be expected with the fairy tale element, I suppose. It made me giggle and the teaser chapter for the sequel makes me want to continue on with the series!

honestly, I had a hard time getting into the book and I did not finish it. I really don't have more to say then that but its telling me that my review needs to be longer.

Cute fairy tale. The fairy god mother’s are quirky and charming bringing Lucky her shot at love. Fairy tale retelling that reads quickly and very entertaining.

If you want a cute escape this is definitely the feel-good type of story you'd want to read. It has fairy godmothers, and a sassy female protagonist who deserves a bit of luck on her side for once ;)
I love that it was set in a fairytale setting and Ransom and Lucky were adorable and awkward (a lot of second hand embarrassment for sure.) But that's what I enjoyed about them. Loved seeing them work through all the challenges and obstacles. What didn't really make sense to me was the reason they couldn't be together. The whole issue of labeling Ransom "the boy who missed" was a little ridiculous. Luckys best friend though deserves the world and her kids cracked me up. Overall it was a fun read.

Fairy Godmothers, Inc. was so much fun to dive into. I laughed so much and even had some tears showing up here and there. It was also pretty easy to fall in love with all the characters. Especially when you meet Lucky and Ransom. Oh Lucky.. she definitely thinks she is cursed and very very unlucky.
I honestly felt bad for her throughout the entire book because she wanted true love and Ransom all wrapped up in one. Yet, these two had so many freaking obstacles in their way. It was crazy. Heck beyond crazy.
Now I won't lie.. they both had to overcome their fears and lean on one another to make it out in the end. It just took forever and I wanted to bang my head on the wall. At least I got to laugh along their adventure because they were hilarious. Then there's the fairy godmothers who were freaking adorable. I would textural them all day every day.
Other than that, I'm intrigued to see what happened with Gwen and her potential love interest. I also really hope that jackass of an ex got a good dose of karma. Please say yes.

Fairy Godmothers Inc
This was such a beautiful book!! I enjoyed it thoroughly and my rating for this book is a solid 💙💙💙💙💙/5 hearts because it made my heart so full reading this!
Lucky is pretty unlucky okay I admit it she's not unlucky but spreads bad luck to people around us and so she's only close to people who seem immune to her bad luck. Gwen is Lucky's best friend and I love how she progresses as a character and she's fierce and loyal which we all love in a bestie. Anyway Lucky's Godmothers want a favor to kick start their business THE GODMOTHERS INC, the one thing they ask her is to get fake married to the one person who has had more bad luck from her.
Ransom Payne is the multimillionaire and CEO of Heart's Desire a Cacao farm and a master chocolatier aka the Boy Who Missed. He's been carrying that dreaded title since college and now that his Godmothers have asked for a favor he'd do it all risking the name being dug up again but will his love withstand when he runs out of everything?
A thoroughly enjoyable read and will have you giggling all the way and make your heart break into smithereens. The characters are well constructed and have a solid backstory and the best part is that they all have flaws and yet are perfect to me. The plot development is good too and the..... Okay I won't tell you and spoil the fun😝
Anyway if you're looking for a light breezy read this book is perfect for you go grab your copy now!!!
274 pages of utter bliss and joy!!!

Thank you@netgalley for giving me this book to review!

This is a fun, charming, witty read. I had so much fun reading this book. The fairy godmothers were my favorite and the true stars of this book in my opinion. Sorry Lucky and Ransom. Although, Lucky and Ransom did have plenty of awkward moments that were hilarious. You would think with a name called "Lucky" that you would be lucky but that is not the case. In fact, it is quite the opposite. Lucky is more "unlucky". A funny moment is when Ransom got hit in the face by a cherry. Yet, Ransom and Lucky were determined to prove that lucky was not unlucky. They made a cute couple. All of the other characters in this book are also very enjoyable. I love when this happens. I look forward to reading more books in this series. I know it is magical as it helped me out of my reading slump.

I actually don't know where to start with this one, maybe that this was the most fun read to start off December with.
This is a true real-life, feel good, fairy tale for adults looking for an escape. With witty banter, sarcastic comebacks that will have you laughing out loud, and the fairy tale "happily-ever-after" you know you'll get!
Now, we get a few viewpoints throughout this story. While it's not fixed when you'll read from what perspective, it is clear when there's a change in narrative. There wasn't a single moment when I didn't know who was talking.
Lucky Fujiki is nothing like her name suggests. Her whole life unluck has followed her around, spreading to others who touch her. Nothing is more true than in her relationship with Ransom Payne. They couldn't even have sex and their relationship definitely didn't end well.
So, when her three godmothers (actual fairies, but she didn't know that yet) asks her to get fake married with him, she isn't sure she can face him. And what if her unluck gets worse?

I really enjoyed this book! It was a cute romance that was a fast paced and fun read. I loved the fairy godmothers, and I hope we see them in another book! I highly recommend this book, 4 stars.

I thought this was a heartwarming spin on romance! I am always the first to sign up for fake marriage trope, and this author didn’t disappoint. We get a little bit of reality mixed with make-believe. The magic in the book was a little childish at times, but does the job. I appreciate that this book was not all about romance but also the growth of each character. I was always rooting for our main heroin as she made her way though the universe. For me, the book was slow to get into, but the journey is worth it.
