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.

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?
