Do you think women want to read fantasy books with adult characters?
If your answer is “Yes”, you are in the right place.

My name is Jenny Swan and I love to write fairy-tale and fantasy books about women over 30. We all want to find a magical portal to another land, sail with a pirate over the sea, unleash our witch powers, and find the love of our lives. These exciting, heart-pounding fantasy stories feature heroines who are just like you and me — normal women who lead normal lives until something magical happens.

The first series you can dive into is called “Charms & Chocolate.” Mayla, who believes in chocolate but not in magic, discovers that she is a witch and has to escape violent young men who are out to get her. A mysterious stranger helps her, a charming police officer cautions her against him, and a cat just appears in time to help her.

This was such a fun read! It had so many different aspects and references to well-known fairytales! It was also nice to see the female protagonist be somebody who isn't perfect, like in the typical fairytales.

ARC Review:
Enchanted in Time - Jenny Swan
Romantic Fairytale
(Beauty and the Beast, Finding Nemo, Cinderella and Wizzard of Oz)

What a great story!! I loved it. The fairytale feel in modern day times with a twist of ancient magic.

A fairytale for moms for sure.
Irmgard was my favorite character by far. She made me think of Dory and she's just loveable, sweet, funny and brave! I wish there was more about her and her situation at the end. But it was great nonetheless.

Hannah our FMC was a single mom of 3 little sweat peas and was thrown into the deep end when her lovely neighbor and her little girl convinced Hannah to attend a royal ball after a strange invitation was delivered to her apartment. With a horse drawn carriage and all, on the way to a castle in ruins of the a royal family that did not exist - The night turned out to be an adventure never to be forgotten.

It's a story of love and hope and never giving up. Very well written and I look forward to reading the rest of the books in this series.
If you enjoy fairytale retellings with a happily ever after, this one is worth a read!

Enchanted in Time – Fairy Tale for Women: A Single Mom Finds Her Happily (The Enchanted After Thirty Series)

Enchanted in Time – Fairy Tale for Women: A Single Mom Finds Her Happily (The Enchanted After Thirty Series) ~~ Jenny Swan weaves a heartfelt, magical journey that spoke straight to my soul. This story follows a single mom who receives a mysterious invitation—one that pulls her into a world where magic still lingers and dreams long thought impossible start to bloom again. I loved watching her navigate this unexpected path, rediscovering her strength, worth, and capacity for joy. The romance was tender yet exciting, the emotional moments genuine, and the ending left me misty-eyed in the best way. A true celebration of second chances and believing in your own magic. Absolutely loved it!
