And Over...
And Over...

Book 1: More Than Once Upon a Time

Olivia doesn't believe in happily-ever-afters. Tales like that only happen in children’s storybooks. The real world is a harsh, unforgiving place where true love is fiction—Or so she thought.

A chance encounter with a meddling woman catapults Olivia into a whimsical fairy-tale realm, with her playing the part of the reluctant protagonist. Trapped in a land of make-believe, Olivia must navigate each story in her search for a way out.

Within the chapters, she meets Jerron, a fellow romance-jaded captive whose belief in love has dwindled with every scripted romance. Bound by their desire to escape, they team up and discover happiness may be the key to returning home.

Somewhere, among the pages of their adventure, the connection between the pair deepens and their views on love and destiny begin to shift. As they attempt to rewrite a new ending, they come face-to-face with a malevolent darkness lurking within the realm.

Every fairy tale has its villain, and this one seeks to corrupt them… or kill them.

Book 2: Trapped in More Than Once Upon a Time

Lottie can’t remember the last time she believed in happily-ever-afters. For her, life as Cinderella’s stepsister and focusing on finding a rich nobleman to marry is the only life she’s ever known—or so she thought.

After the world starts to crumble around her and other people begin to blink in and out of focus, Lottie questions everything she’s worked toward for years. Is a loveless marriage with a rich duke something she can truly live with?

Finding herself lost in a forest, she stumbles across a group of people who are lost in a meddling woman’s world—and Carson, a friend from a life she doesn’t remember.

After kissing a beast, and discovering her old diary, Lottie begins to remember a life she didn’t know she had forgotten.

Somewhere among the chaos, Carson and Lottie open their hearts to the connection that’s always existed between them, and hope reshapes their views on love. But is that enough to get them home?

Every tale has an ending… but will this one be the happily-ever-after they’ve longed for? Or will a darkness follow them home…

Izla isn’t just a fairy princess… She is a matchmaking fairy princess. If there is anyone unhappy in her father’s kingdom, she is sure love will fix it.

Having a sister that interferes in everyone’s life can be annoying, but Thane has gotten used to it. When his father commands him to help Izla with her escapades, he believes he is being pushed too far. Why can’t she let people find love on their own?

When a poor miller draws the attention of a greedy king and puts his daughter in danger, Thane has to interfere to save the innocent girl. Talking to women has always made him feel awkward, so he solicits the help of his sister’s friend Ava. The only problem—he’s starting to feel nervous around her.
