Marlena is a fairy godmother that has been helping to produce happily ever afters for years. Recently the fairy tales have been having a slightly different happy ending due to a new concoction of fairy dust. Happily ever afters are not exciting enough unless it includes hot sex. Her boss, Martin, is not happy with Marlena and her meddling. Martin thinks Marlena has lost touch on what the readers want in a fairy tale. He decides to teach her a lesson. It has been decided that Marlena will be one of the female characters in a story. She is to be in the story Rumpelstiltskin. Martin expects Marlena to follow the story as is but she accidentally brings some of her special fairy dust with her into the story. The troll ends up getting the fairy dust on him. Marlena gets to experience first hand what her fairy dust is doing to all the heroes and heroines in the fairy tales.

Martin gets very irate that Marlena would sabotage the story of Rumpelstiltskin. Marlena persuades Martin to give her another chance. He agrees and this time it’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Marlena ends up getting some of her dust on her lips and so when the prince kisses Snow White…well you get the picture. The third times the charm. This time it is off to grandma’s house we go in Little Red Riding Hood. Her boss’s assistant Marvin actually does not mind Malena’s meddling and helps her bring some of her dust into the story.

In Tielle St Clare’s novel Fairy Dust you will read a whole new twist on the favorite classics we all grow up on as children. The antics that Malena’s amped fairy dust caused when one of the characters was the beneficiary of the fairy dust were entertaining. Fairy Dust was a pleasurable read. Tielle St Clare is currently working on Marvin’s story. I can’t wait to read Marvin’s moment of glory. Fairy Dust has made me see fairy tales in a whole new light. The classics will never be the same again but that is a good thing.
