I'm Goldie, your typical twenty-something, drowning in debt and boredom—until a detour through the Enchanted Grove changes everything. On my way to Grandma’s with a basket of goodies, I stumble upon a storybook cottage and meet Fenris, a brooding, irresistibly dreamy werewolf.

Suddenly, my mundane life is flipped upside down. Fenris’s intense green eyes and hidden vulnerability pull me in, but our fairy tale is far from simple. While he battles his inner wolf, I’m tasked with saving our world by returning the Source Stone before the Enchanted Grove collapses.

And just to complicate things, there's Red-Scarlett Hood, a huntress with a grudge, hot on our trail. Fenris wants me, Red-Scarlett wants him, and I just want to save the realm without falling in love.

All I wanted was to deliver cookies to Grandma.

What Risingshadow readers think about this book

8/10

This was a fun story with more inspiration from Red Riding Hood than Goldilocks as well as plenty of its own original story. I liked both Goldie and Fenris as well as how well the world around them was built up. The background characters were entertaining as well and the epilogue when Goldie finally gets to her Grandma’s house was amusing.

I received a free advanced reader copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
