Welcome to Alex Flinn's version of Snow White. Told from the perspective of both the Snow White character, Celine, and the evil stepmother character, Violet. Kendra makes appearances throughout this novel.
Violet believes that only pretty people can succeed in life. After learning magical powers through Kendra, Violet begins to change her appearance, so that she can be with her long time crush. Her changes do not matter and her crush marries and has a child with another woman. Years later, Violet marries him and becomes the evil stepmother to Celine.
Celine is beautiful, but shy. She hates drawing attention because of her looks and is seeking something real. She meets a boy with a lower center of gravity (little person) and finds a real connection. Eventually, he is the one person she can count on to save her from her evil stepmother.
This wasn't my favorite book in the series. I was hoping for redemption of the evil character, and a better well-rounded character. The story did not have enough of Flinn's usual twists.
