Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
Sarah and Evelyn have already risked everything to help Ava win a crown. But they soon learn that a coronation is a beginning, not an ending. Not everyone in Rangmere is happy to see the young queen on the throne, and intrigue and danger lurk all around. The cousins find themselves fighting not only for their new kingdom but also for their own survival in the royal court. When a new threat emerges, the two girls must defeat it to both save the crown and secure their own Happily Ever Afters.


My Review:
Happily Ever Afters is a young adult fantasy novella with a romance. You really need to read "The Princess Fugitive" first in order to understand this story. While Sarah is a part of uncovering the plot and has her own romance, Evelyn and her love interest were more fully developed. We get to see Evelyn and her love interest interact and form a friendship. It's easy to understand why they're attracted to each other. Sarah and Evelyn uncover a plot against their friend Ava and work together with the love interests to save the day. The main characters were engaging and reacted realistically to events. The world-building was light, mainly a medieval feel but with curses and godmother magic items. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this fantasy to fans of fairytales and heroic fantasy.
