About this deal

This book is perfect for the middle grade reader who clings to childhood but wants to venture closer to adulthood. This book offers a little of both worlds. Real life and fairy tales collide in The Chronicles of Never After, a middle-grade series from #1 New York Times bestselling author of Disney’s Descendants novels, Melissa de la Cruz. When Father Cade lays eyes on Amaya, he finds himself ensnared, convinced she’s using witchcraft to lure him to her. He can’t eat. Can’t breathe. Can’t think unless it’s of her. And temptation is a devastating mistress. She’s his weakness, so he decides he’ll be her demise…even if it means killing the only woman he might ever love.

Never After Series: Your Complete Guide to the Fractured

James has always had one agenda: destroy his enemy, Peter Michaels. When Peter’s twenty-year-old daughter Wendy shows up in James’s bar, he sees his way in. Seduce the girl and use her for his revenge. Prince Tristan Faasa was never destined for the throne. That was always his brother, Michael. The same brother responsible for both Tristan’s tormented childhood and the scar that mars his face. Even though this series may be written in a simpler vocabulary that is almost too simple for older readers, it has a wonderful amount of action and adventure that even the oldest of us can enjoy.

Twisted is a dark, contemporary romance (not fantasy or a literal retelling) and the fourth complete standalone in the Never After series, ractured fairy tale reimagining of Aladdin. When Father Cade lays eyes on Amaya, he finds himself ensnared, convinced she’s using witchcraft to lure him to her. He can’t eat. Can’t breathe. Can’t think unless it’s of her. But Robin’s antics aren’t the only dangers afoot in the Kingdom of Never After. At the behest of her daughter, the evil Cinderella, Queen Olga has turned Prince Charming into a Frog after his wedding to the beautiful Hortense. And how could we forget the ominous Prophecy, which still looms large over Filomena and her friends? Yet again, de la Cruz amazes me with her twists on fairy tales. Even though I recognize the stories embedded into this book, the new take on them is thrilling. How does the frog prince return to his human form? Who are the seven dwarves really? De la Cruz has turned fairy tales upside down and given you a story you won't forget.Wretched is a dark contemporary romance and the third complete standalone in The Never After Series, fractured fairy tale reimagining ofThe Wizard of Oz. Yasmin Karam, daughter to one of the richest men in the world, has never known strife. So, when her beloved father falls ill, she’s determined to make his final days his happiest. I've not moved from my opinion that most ten- to twelve-year-olds would not appreciate the humor of the Never After series, although of the three I believe The Broken Mirror would be most enjoyed by that audience.

The story is tighter, the ogres are biding their time and the quests, while tamed by insight and better choices of the characters, are more fraught with personal relationships and responsibilities. There is less fun and humor, compared with the first two books. If it weren't for the adolescent crushes, the characters could be much older. But Nicholas Woodsworth’s real secret is much more dangerous than an alias. He’s an undercover DEA agent, and he’s hell-bent on destroying the drug trade that devastated his family. Amaya Paquette is Festivalé’s beautiful mystery. She spends her days caring for her younger brother and her nights transforming into Esmeralda, dancing for greedy eyes and shameless lips.But when his mentor falls ill, he finds himself on the verge of losing everything, and he’ll stop at nothing to inherit what is rightfully his. Even if it means forcing a woman he can’t stand into marriage. Twelve-year-old Filomena Jefferson-Cho finds herself inside the magical world of her favorite fantasy series. When their father passes, Michael is set to assume the throne, and Tristan is set to steal it. The leader of a secret rebellion, Tristan will stop at nothing to end his brother’s reign. When he realizes the youngest daughter of the Westerly empire is the same woman he’s been fantasizing about since that night at the club, attraction battles violently with disgust.
