Gretsella didn’t ask for a baby to be dropped on her doorstep, but the future king of Evermore was indeed abandoned on her doorstep. As tradition requires, she took him in, and named him Bradley. Gretsella’s coven comes to the christening, and they bless him––he is blessed with good looks, and a powerful right hook among other gifts.

Bradley grows up to become a handsome young man with a passion for cutting hair. But against Gretsella’s wishes, reminders of Bradley’s royal heritage keep showing up. At last, Bradley leaves to take the kingdom back––despite Gretsella’s best attempts to remind him that he belongs in the forest.

When chaos erupts during Bradley’s reign, Gretsella packs her bags and leaves to become his most trusted advisor. With the help of a handsome knight, a stablemaster, and a sly court jester, Gretsella and Bradley take on the problems of the kingdom––all in accordance with Gretsella’s sneaky plan to stage a coup and choose Bradley’s successor so she can have her son back in Brigindale.

With delightful language, semi-deep reflections, and touching moments, C. M. Waggoner’s writing will bring readers to tears. I enjoyed the fun light-hearted tone, and the concept of items such as toad-o-phones. It beautiful, and humorous, right down to the chapter titles!
