I don't always set out to write a series of books, but seem to find myself gravitating to them. Because so many people have asked, I've posted lists of all my series in order at www.hollyjacobs.com/bookseries.html. I really try to make each story stand alone, but many of my readers enjoy reading the series in order. Hope this helps!

Thank you to everyone who's picked up a single book, or more of them. I'm so lucky to be surrounded by so much support!

I got this book from NetGalley long time back, and it was just lost in my TBR pile.

This is a romance book, in the truest sense of the romance. The book has an old world charm about it which was something that appealed to me and made me addicted to reading. The book would have suited me better then, but now as well, it was a pleasurable one time read. The only thing I missed in it was a novel plot idea.

I Believe!

Well, I do, at least I believe in the ones in Holly's books. I adore those 3 busy body, mistake making, charming fairies. Great characters and well written stories always make me happy. This series has all of the above.

Story Notes

The third installment of Holly Jacobs delightful series "Dear Fairy Godmother" is a light-hearted read with lots of fun dialogue and a romance sure to please any reader.

Glory Chambers is done with men, and is ready to reinvent herself at her late aunt's diner. She has given up the corporate world and all the strings attached to it, seeking instead to do what makes her happy and brings her joy. And with a little help from the three Fairy Godmothers Myrtle, Fern and Blossom she will discover all she hoped for and more. Nick Aaronson is not looking for a wife or even a girlfriend. He is happy as he is, asking out beautiful women who do not require further commitment from him than dinner and a good time. Nick has worked hard to build his reputation as an attorney and the last thing he needs is to be saddled with three "fairy" clients who are being sued for "not providing a promised happily, ever after". And against his better judgement, he allows his clients to talk him into taking the suit to trial. What follows is a hilarious turn of events that ends with Nick and Glory finding what they needed all along - their own happily ever after. I have read the two prior books in this series and have found them all to be quite nice. Ms. Jacobs creates fun characters who, in spite of frequent mishaps, show readers that there is such a thing as true love and sometimes it needs a little help. Nick and Glory are the perfect foils for each other and their dealings with the Godmothers left me laughing as I felt the frustration they had as they tried to make sense of fairy logic. I also find it really neat that Ms. Jacobs expanded on the idea of Fairy Godmothers from Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty and made them modern and fitting to her story. Further, the vocabulary she includes was also a little more advanced than expected in a short book but Ms. Jacobs writing improves with each book of hers I read.I can't wait to read the final book in this series to see what will happen to Myrtle, Fern and Blossom.

My two problems I had with this book kept me to 4 out of 5 stars instead of the 5 I longed to give it - Very frequent inclusion of mild profanity and several references to sexual encounters. As much as I love Holly Jacobs DFG books, I still find them butting up against my personal preference for curse free literature. The frequent inclusion of mild profanity just made me cringe when I read it because it was not necessary to the plot or the progress of the story, and it made Nick look a bit immature since he couldn't find better words to express his feelings. My second issue is one that I found went against the Godmother's rules as well as my own. The Godmothers make a big deal about humans avoiding sex before marriage and then they set up the main characters for a night alone together. I could see it coming as the story progressed but hoped Ms. Jacobs would not choose to use that device. It was sad to see the Godmothers, who had been successful with several others love stories, stoop to this tactic when they have so many others at their disposal. It made me uncomfortable and I quickly skimmed over those pages and this will keep me from purchasing this particular book in this series. I might recommend this book to others who I know would be mature enough to handle it but must offer a word of warning for these two issues.

I received this E-book free of charge from Bellebooks/Imaginn Books via NetGalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. I will receive no fiscal compensation from either of these companies for this review.

My Rating: 4.5 Stars



The time has come for the Fairy Godmothers, Fern, Blossom and Myrtle, to turn their attention to the third and last Aaronson sibling, Nick. Nick is a lawyer who believes in facts and logic. The idea of Godmothers and Fairies is laughable and he refuses to believe in them. That is alright with them they have already chosen his true love, Glory Chambers and are hired by Glory to work in the diner she recently inherited from a long lost aunt. Nick is hired to defend them and as he and Glory grow closer the fairies begin to doubt themselves and their abilities to complete their assignment.

.

As always Holly Jacobs delivers a fun read filled with humor and a well thought out plot and characters you will quickly come to love and wish to know better. You can easily read any of the books as a stand alone. If you enjoy stories that make you laugh as they raise your spirits then I recommend Holly Jacobs' Dear Fairy Godmother series. It is a great way to escape the daily grind of everyday living for a few hours of fun and enjoy the elusive search for love. My rating is 4.5 out of 5 stars.

This is a great book; this is the third book in the Dear Fairy Godmother series written by Holly Jacobs. The fairies are determined to find Nick Aaronson his true love. And they're not taking 'no' for an answer! Nick Aaronson is a practical, realistic, and a little cynical. He's a lawyer who believes in logic, the law, but definitely not fairies. Unfortunately for Nick, Myrtle, Fern, and Blossom believe in him. This is a great book with a wonderful story and well developed characters. This book will keep you reading long into the night. If you are looking for a great book, then you need to read this book. I am looking forward to reading the next book by this great author. A Review copy was provided to me in exchange for a fair and honest review. The free book held no determination on my personal review.

With a smile on my face and joy in my heart, is the way I enter into Holly Jacobs novels. She knows just the right buttons to push in order to make sure that feeling continues throughout her reads. FOR ME, IT DID! How do you explain the unexplainable? Miracles for Nick takes on that challenge. Logical Nick and cynical Glory have to learn to look with the heart and open their minds to all the possibilities. A group of matchmaking fairies will show them how? My favorite couple in the series so far.

[Ann · Rating 4 out of 5]

This series is an enjoyable light read that features the 3 fairy godmothers, Fern, Blossom and Myrtle. Nick is the last of the Aaronson family that need to find true love. When his life is taken over by Glory Chambers who has opened a diner across from the courthouse, and her three pint sized employees , he thinks he needs needs to visit his doctor brother Max. You should probably read the first two books in the series to fully enjoy all the hi-jinks in this funny lovable story. Not too long, it's a nice relaxing read to make you smile and just enjoy.

[Lorna Collins · Rating 5 out of 5]

More fun with the fairies--but this time with a twist. I won't give away the new development, but Myrtle, Blossom, and Fern create even more havoc on their way to procuring a happily-ever-after, or in this case, two. A fun, quick read with lots of smiles and laughs along the way.
