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.
Thank you NetGalley and Kensington Books for the e-arc in exchange for my honest review.

Would you want a fairy godmother? What about 3?
Lucky Fujiki has no luck, she's a bad luck charm. Everything that can go wrong goes wrong around her.
Her three fairy godmothers want to open a wedding planning business in Ever After, MI and have asked her and her old college bf to put on a fake wedding. Her ex-boyfriend Ransom Payne is now a successful chocolatier billionaire with the help of the fairy godmothers.
Lucky and Ransom's relationship was fraught with bizarre occurrences that are always blamed on her. So they parted ways even though they still had deep feelings for each other.
They rekindled their feelings quickly but the bad luck also rekindled even quicker. Poor Lucky has to choose between bringing down everyone around her or her Happily Ever After.
They do explain why in this magical town that Lucky has no luck it has to do with some family secrets and there are some other magical characters living in this small town. With some other secrets that I am sure the next books in the series will uncover.

Rating: 🌟🌟🌟💫 (4 on goodreads)

I started this book last week so it was - end of the year, beginning of the year read. It was a cute quick fantasy whimsy, silly at times, rom com romance.

I loved the concept of this book so much and actually picked it off my TBR pile thinking I’d be able to fly through it in a couple days. But, it took me over a month to get through.
Fairy Godmothers, Inc. is set in the fairy tale town of Ever After, Missouri, and the fairy godmothers are set to make two of their charges fall in love by having them stage a fake wedding in Ever After to drum up business in the town. Promising right? But I should have known that the fantasy-geek in me wouldn’t be happy the second that non-magical folk were referred to as “normies.” What are we 12?
Overall this book fell flat for me. It held such promise but definitely needs something more to make it a hit for me.
Thanks to NetGalley for the copy to review.

Heavy on the magic, light on the realism, full of unrequited love.

I love stories that mix realism and magic. This felt like an adult version of a Disney story. Two people in love who always seem to muck it up somehow and need the help of fairy godmothers to make their love last.

The romance trope works, a second chance at love and a fake engagement. The godmothers are a bit much at times, a little too saccharine, and other times just sassy enough to not make me skip over their parts. I liked the hint of the book's series aspect and the friend of the main character and her children. They add a lot to a story that could get out of hand.

This book isn't for everyone. This is heavier on magical realism and asks the reader to put aside many commonly held beliefs in how the world works. As an escape novel, though, it is perfect. Exactly what I needed on a dreary, gray winter day.

While not every reader will enjoy this book, fairy-tale inclined readers and readers who want whimsy in their reading will find this a fun read.

I loved chatting with Saranna about this series. The idea of fairy godmothers intevervening when it comes to romance was so much fun!

This romance story had potential and plenty of likable characters, but it fell short for me. I’m not sure if that’s due to the writing style, or maybe too many characters that I feel like I never really got to know. It had a cute, magical feel but it was just lacking something.

In a town called Ever After three fairy godmothers want to increase their magic so they decide to create a wedding destination in Missouri to help fix the decreasing magic. Former lovers Lucky and Ransom happen to be the Godchildren of these fairy godmothers, so to promote the town as a wedding destination they rope the old lovers into a fake wedding. Lucky and Ransom were good characters for this rom-com of a story, but there were some major issues happening that couldn't be explained.

I wasn't as blown away by this as I wanted to be I'm not particularly a rom-com reader but thought since this involved fairies I could get into it but that just didn't happen for me. The book seemed to have a lot of extra characters and detail that i didn't find necessary.

This was a cute book. I thought one plot point started to get a little strange the more they talked about it. I loved the idea of the adult fairy tale land. I would give book 2 a shot!

I really loved the concept of this book and wanted to love the story, but sadly the execution didn’t quite work for me.

This advertised three of my absolute favorite romance tropes: fake relationship, second chance romance, and enemies to lovers. Unfortunately there really wasn’t much romance between Ransom and Lucky. They got over the whole “enemies” thing very quickly and almost immediately started making out. There was absolutely no development to their relationship and not much chemistry either. (I also found the whole “boy who missed” thing, the reason they were “enemies,” to be really silly and unrealistic – as if that’s the kind of thing that fully grown adults (and reporters!) would care so much about??)

I loved the idea of the town of Ever After, but again, it just wasn’t executed well. There were so many different elements introduced at once and it was hard to keep track of everything. The writing also felt like it was trying too hard to be clever and funny and I actually found myself often confused by what was going on – conversations didn’t seem to follow a logical path.

This had a ton of potential and I think with another round of editing it could be a cute little story, but it just didn’t work for me right now.
