I love magical realism, so this book immediately appealed to me. It’s almost as easy to call this romance though.

Lucky has always had bad luck. Her luck is so bad that she actually thinks she might be cursed.

Ransom is doing just fine, he’s incredibly wealthy but still misses his old girlfriend Lucky.
Lucky misses him too but they would never have admitted it on their own. Something happened in their past that turned into a humiliating experience for Ransom and stuck with him ever since. I’m not going to say what, I’ll just say that they were never able to consummate their relationship.

They actually feel like they might be cursed when they’re together. If they try to be together, terrible things happen.

But their fairy godmothers need their help and they’d do anything for them. They agree to a fake wedding to bring people into their town, Ever After.

As Lucky and Ransom start to fall for each other, it starts to take a toll on Ransom’s career and Luckey’s best friend Gwen.
Lucky has to figure out how to save herself and everyone else.

There were some beautiful messages in this book. I thought Ransom’s nickname was so silly it was distracting. But I liked all of the characters, the settings, the animals, the magic, basically everything else.

I got to read an early ebook edition from NetGalley. Thanks!
