Charity is a fairy godmother. Not the poofy dress/sparkly wand type but rather a teenage cheerleader socialite who makes dreams happen for her “Cindys” a.k.a. Cinderellas. However when one of the wishes she orchestrated goes down in flames, it forces Charity to reconsider all of her life’s work so far. Can she actually get everyone a real HEA, even herself? 

At one point, I was going to toss this book across the room if I had to Google one more teeny-bopper Disney heartthrob namedrop, however, this book ended up surprising me. I loved Charity’s willingness to reevaluate her misconceptions and I loved how Noah’s geeky family was so unapologetic in their nerdiness. This is a super cute opposites-attract high school romance with a supernatural twist, however, beware of lots of Star Trek references, lots and lots of Star Trek.
