Book Description
If Nor can’t spin gold, she can always spin lies. When seventeen-year-old Nor rescues a captured faerie in the woods, he gifts her with a magical golden thread she can use to summon him for a favor. Instead, Nor uses it for a con—to convince villagers to buy straw that can be transformed into gold. Her trick works a little too well, attracting the suspicion of Prince Casper, who hates nobody more than a liar. Intent on punishing Nor, he demands that she spin a room of straw into gold and as her reward, he will marry her. Should she refuse or fail, the consequences will be dire. Desperate for help, Nor summons the faerie’s aid, launching a complicated dance as she must navigate between her growing feelings for both the prince and faerie boy and who she herself wishes to become.

This is a journey of persistence and determination, of stubbornly walking towards her heart's desire despite all the obstacles and setbacks on the way. Romany reveals a life caught on the paralyzing hook of a persistent eating disorder and how discovering the mysterious but powerful Law of Attraction can change a life for the better. Reviews from Amazon. See more on the site. "The first thing to note is that she writes so well - and also that she has an entertaining and heartwarming story to tell. From a high flying business career that seemed to define her life, to her realization that this didn't have to be her truth, this inspirational book is about discovering how to live dreams with success. What also strikes me is the sheer willpower Romany has, and the rare power to take deeply life-changing decisions with no fear - what a woman! I appreciate that she does not expose any magic secrets, which is the right thing to do, but still manages to show the delight, intricacy, thoughtfulness, and dedication that marks out a real magician and allow non-magicians an insight into this world." David Harry "Bold, brave and beautiful. This book will change your life. Romany is handing you her sunlight, take it." A Owen You have the choice of cover! Both books are exactly the same inside? Are you a lover of clean and simple White or a passionate lover of Pink?

Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of When Dimple Met Rishi comes the second installment in a series set an elite boarding school that’s a contemporary spin on fairy tales, this one a delightful, romantic twist on The Frog Prince. Caterina LaValle is determined to show she’s still the queen of St. Rosetta’s Academy. Sure, her crown may be slightly askew after her ex-boyfriend, Alaric, cheated on her, but she’s a LaValle. She’ll find a way to march right back in there, her hands clutching the strings to the whole puppet show. This time, she’s going to be untouchable. Rahul Chopra knows that moment he shared with Caterina LaValle at the winter formal meant something. Surely she feels it, too. He’s a little uncertain how someone like him (socially inept to a point way past “adorkable”) could fit into her world, but he’s loved Caterina for years. He knows they’ll find a way. When Caterina finds out Alaric is taking a supermodel to the upcoming gala, she knows she cannot arrive without the perfect date. But the thought of taking another superficial St. R’s boy exhausts her. The solution? Sweet-but-clueless Rahul Chopra and a mysterious pot of hair gel with the power to alter the wearer into whatever his heart desires. When Rahul tries it, he transforms instantly into RC—debonair, handsome, and charming. But transformation comes with a price: As Rahul enjoys his new social standing, the line between his two personas begins to blur. Will he give up everything, including Caterina, to remain RC? Or will this unlikely pair find their way back to each other?
