There was no greater joy than seeing the light in a child’s eye.
Once, a humble toymaker crafted wonders so enchanting they lit up the faces of every child in London. But when a band of mischievous trolls ransacks Mister Edmund Smithe’s beloved shoppe, his dreams—and his livelihood—crumble overnight. With Christmastide just days away, failure isn’t an option. If he can’t fulfill his orders, he’ll lose more than his reputation—he’ll lose his freedom.

But when they slip past her and wreak havoc in the human realm, she has no choice but to follow them—crossing the forbidden boundary between worlds. What she doesn’t expect is Edmund, a mortal whose very presence shifts something deep inside her.

I absolutely loved this story!! Who knew trolls would be so troublesome!?! Poor Mister Edmund Smithe!
The characters warm your heart, the story grips you from the get-go, and you can see the story unfold as you read along. I was rooting for Faetila the whole time and was really hoping things would work out for her.
The writing flows wonderfully, and the story pulls you in and leaves you with warm feels and a smile the whole time.
