“When eight-year-old Lacey Carson finds her mother dead on the kitchen floor, something inside her fractures.
Uprooted to a new town with a grieving, distant father, she latches onto the first person who shows her warmth—Emily Harper, a precocious classmate with a big heart and an even bigger need to help.
What begins as innocent friendship festers into decades of obsession, manipulation, and a love so warped it leaves one girl dead, and the other wondering if she even knows how to survive a life without her.”

ELLA ENCHANTED X HALF A SOUL Lucy thought her biggest source of headache was getting the elves to follow a schedule. But when a prince proclaims his love for her & half the kingdom gets turned to stone, she realizes life can always get worse. Especially in a fairytale. #QuestPit #A #F #RF #Q

An orange tabby cat lays on his back on a green background. He wears a blue hat with a daisy dangling from the tip of the hat. His name is Marius and he's a character in A Cobbler's Guide to Surviving a FairytaleLucy only tried on the shoe because the cobbler’s elves told her to, not because she had any interest in being the true love of a prince she’d never met. But fairies don’t care what humans like Lucy want — fairies want to tell their stories, no matter the consequences. So when the shoe refused to budge from her foot, Lucy knew she was in trouble. 

Comp titles are Half a Soul, The House in the Cerulean Sea, The Teller of Small Fortunes, and Dealing with Dragons
