Maven Fairy Godmother: Through the Veil
A dead cellphone. A promise of dragons. And a middle-aged woman who is officially too old for this nonsense.
Once upon a time, a desperate woman of a certain age gave up the last of her self-esteem for a cup of coffee. With an expired unemployment check, a broken-down car, and zero options left, Maven Morrigan’s last-chance job offer comes from a very unexpected place: she’s been hired as a Fairy Godmother.
But nobody warned her about the job hazards. Faery is shrinking, the other godmothers have mysteriously disappeared, and Maven is suddenly knee-deep in dragons, wishful thinking, and the occasional slithery familiar. Worse yet, nothing she does turns out right. How is she supposed to deliver the custom "happily ever afters" her clients demand when the realm itself is glitching and her new boss is standing in her way?
When a fellow trainee lands in a peril worthy of a dark storybook, Maven must decide if she can risk everything—her job, her life, and her last shred of dignity—to pull off the ultimate rescue.
MAVEN FAIRY GODMOTHER: THROUGH THE VEIL is a fast, fun, and cynical romp that proves midlife mayhem can be downright magical, and that none of us are ever old enough to know better.
What Readers Are Saying:
"Imagine if Terry Pratchett sat down with Kathy Bates to write fractured fairy tales—that’s the delightful energy of Maven."
