Once upon a time, in the peaceful town of Hamilton Heights, (the lower heights) there were two shops that coexisted next to each other.
A bakery, and a florist shop.
I, your narrator and protagonist, live above the florist shop while my mother in question, owns the shop.
This sad story however, is not majorly surrounded about me but about the huge rivalry between my mom, the florist, and Lucille Flynn, the baker next door.
For some unknown reason, they have hated each other for as long as forever and due to this unfortunate hatred, that could only mean that their children aka me and a sub human named Wilder Flynn automatically have to hate each other.
So, imagine when in a funny flip of fate, these two enterprises are forced to work together on a wedding and these two warring teenagers are suddenly relegated to the thirdwheel of their respective friend groups.
If you thought disaster, then you deserve a skittle for that correct answer.
Although of course, I wouldn't describe it as a disaster because that would be an understatement of the year.
What I would call it would be chaos and that is indeed what it eventually turned out to be.
A chaos of feelings, flavors, flowers, relationships and secrets.
A fairy godmother internship is just what Noelle needs to escape her family's pumpkin business . . . until she starts to question her own happily-ever-after.
Perfect for fans of The Princess Diaries or Ella Enchanted!

Noelle Simpkins is sick of working for her parents. Sure, her dad runs a booming pumpkin business and her mom's the greatest shoemaker in the land. But pumps and pumpkins get OLD after a while, and she's ready to see more of the world.
When she hears about a fairy godmother internship in the city, she jumps on it. The goal? Make sure royal clients get happily-ever-afters . . . all while battling goblins, curing curses, and figuring out how to use a magic wand. Not to mention shutting down a rival godmother and avoiding Kit, a distractingly cute guy who sells pie and keeps turning up.
But as exciting as her new gig is, Noelle is surprised when she realizes . . . she kind of misses making shoes and growing pumpkins. Has she gotten closer to her own happily-ever-after, or farther away? And when the glass shoe's on the other foot, can she stay true to her heart?
