In a Nutshell: A romance combining the usual tropes with some strong emotional themes. Nice loveable characters, though they read younger than their age. Good story, great fairytale content. The sixth and final book of the Ever After series. Not the best book of the series, but definitely not the worst as well. A good one to bid adieu to Ever After Street with. Can be read as a standalone, but would recommend going in series order.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Plot Preview:
I don’t often read romcoms these days. But I have keenly waited for the books of the Ever After Street series ever since I read the first one. Each book is set on the magical-sounding street where every business enterprise is fairytale-themed. Further, every book pays an ode to a Disney classic. As this is the final book of the series, it seems to be offering homage to the entire Disney pantheon, creating a nice nostalgic experience for Disney fans. I am glad it didn’t stick only to ‘Colours of the Wind’ because it is one of the few movies I have watched just once and have zero recollection of.
Bookish Yays:
🌈 Lissa as a person. A woman who fights for others’ rights but ignores her own needs. Basically, a gem of a heart.
🌈 Warren. He has that rare quality I respect most in humans: common sense. He might come off as a tone-deaf grump at times (which he is, to be honest), but I actually admired his balance of practicality and creativity. He was the most level-headed of the characters.
🌈 Special credit to this series (and the author) for always showing MMCs with emotional vulnerability and even ready to show this side of them. Macho guys are so flat and boring!
🌈 Warren’s secret. Fairly guessable after a point, but this isn't a thriller anyway. It is used really well in the story.
🌈 The cameos by all the previous characters of the Ever After Street series. It felt so good to see them in this series finale. I appreciate that they weren’t just mentioned in passing but had at least a tiny active role to play over the course of the story.
🌈 While the start seems to have a hint of both enemy-to-lover and grumpy-to-sunshine, both of these tropes are at a much watered-down level and the transition is also almost instantaneous. Then again, it ended up as a complex enemies-to-friends-to-enemies-to-lovers arc, which works better for me.
🌈 Clean romance. No steam except stolen kisses and warm hugs and lovey-dovey looks. My kind of romance. (This series finally managed to convince me to relish touchy-feely scenes when well-written. All credit to the author for this miracle! No one writes ‘touchy-feely’ as amazingly as Jaimie Admans.)
🌈 The various references to Disney movies. Fairy tales fans will enjoy all the Easter eggs.
🌈 The Colours of the Wind museum, its displays and its promotional ideas. Quaint and cute.
🌈 Special shoutout to the adorable wishing well arc. Reminded me a little of another Jaimie Admans book: 'The Post Box at the North Pole', which was equally sweet.
Bookish Okays:
🎨 The story focusses mainly on Ever After Street characters and doesn’t introduce too many new ones. While this does help a lot in keeping the cast streamlined, one set of characters sorely missed is Lissa’s sisters. After being mentioned so many times over the story, it feels a bit odd that we don’t meet any of them even until the end. (Perhaps there could be a spinoff series with the sisters and their individual romances? Hint, hint!)
🎨 While the plot delivers on the feel-good factor, it is stretched quite thin. The overall pacing and plot development is also quite slow. I felt like I was reading more for the feels than for the story. Of course, the feels are on point, so there’s that. Plus, it is always better to be understated than over the top.
Bookish Nays: (Two Nays for the book, three Nays for the series as a whole)
💨 BOOK ISSUE: The social-media controversy just didn’t make logical sense. Who on earth would be offended that a business used cutesy marketing to attract new customers? I don’t want to go into spoilers, so I will offer a similar yet different example: would you get angry if you learnt that the Disney characters at Disneyland are actually humans dressed up as Disney characters? Would it count as cheating or misleading? Silly, right?
💨 BOOK ISSUE: The sheer lack of business awareness. Not a single idea connected to the rejuvenation of the museum even considers the practical constraints of copyright and licensing. Disney is known to be fiercely protective of its characters and designs being used for commercial purposes. Creative license is all fine and dandy, but this just went too far. Moreover, there’s a strong suggestion that businesses need to run on sentiment and not for profit. No matter how much I love fairy tales, I will never agree to that. Yes, they don’t need to focus merely on profit, but they cannot ignore profit as well. Profit is what ensures further investment, and hence contributes to the longevity of the enterprise. (Look at me dissing a romcom for ignoring legal and financial ramifications. Could you figure out that I am a Capricorn? 🤭)
💨 SERIES ISSUE: The book covers. Yes, the covers are all dreamy, but not a single one of them represents the characters accurately, which is really sad in a series where every lead pair has at least one unique feature between them. This time, Lissa has rainbow-coloured hair! Why isn't that on the cover? Why always use cookie-cutter representation on the cover?
💨 SERIES ISSUE: Neither lead character acts their age. I admire the series for always using slightly older lead characters, with every book having 35+ aged leads, some even being 40+ like Warren in this book. But there’s no point to having older characters if they sound like they are in their twenties.
💨 SERIES ISSUE: Romances obviously always have a formula, and no one really reads romances expecting innovative plotlines. However, when all the books of a series have a pattern, it feels repetitive. The tropes of toxic parent, dead parent, low self-esteem, poor business skills, and an almost-instant turnaround of the business have been used in every single book of this series. (To be fair, Book Five tried to break the pattern somewhat by adding an epistolary angle but failed miserably.) The most irksome of these to me is that the business owners in most of these six books ignore the financial/executional side of their business until their romantic other pointed out the issues. Lissa is especially ignorant as a business owner. I’ve no idea how her museum lasted ten years!
Overall, my nays look visibly hefty, but many are more indicative of the series as a whole than this book alone. Plus many readers might not even bother about boring practical stuff while reading romances. So at least a part of my negatives are more a ME problem than a BOOK problem. The story is quite sweet, even if it isn't punchy.
In many ways, this is a fitting finale to the Ever After Street series. We get to meet all the characters, we see Ever After Street doing well, we see happy endings not just for the six romance leads but also some other side characters. A series needs to stop at the right point, and this book is just that. I especially like that this book begins with the reveal that Sadie and Whit (from Book One) are getting married. A nice way to loop the circle. I will miss this beautiful street, no denying that.
This has been a delightful series on the whole, even if the first four books worked much better for me than the latter two. I’d still advocate this series to dreamy-romance lovers, even if the later books create déjà vu.
I look forward to whatever Jaimie Admans is working on, because whether I like her books or not, I do love the MMCs she creates. And what’s a romance without a delicious MMC, right? 😉
Recommended to fans of the series and to fairytale/romance readers. Don’t overthink if you want to enjoy it better. (In other words, don’t be like me. 🤭)
3.5 stars, rounding up because I did end the book with a smile than a grimace.

Plot Preview:
As the sole proprietor of the ‘Colours of the Wind’ museum, Lissa has run her business her way since the last decade on Ever After Street. So what if the museum is struggling?
When a know-it-all developer named Warren Berrington buys the building that houses the museum and plans to demolish the structure for a more profit-making cinematic mall, Lissa is horrified, but she knows she won't back down without a fight. They agree on a three-month truce, whereby Lissa will try to turn around the museum’s no-profit situation under Warren’s guidance. Turns out, Warren is really good at business redevelopment, even if Lissa doesn’t want to admit it. Can the two work together and save the museum on Ever After Street? Does Warren really want to save it?
The story comes to us in Lissa’s first-person perspective.

3.5 Stars
One Liner: Cute enough, though the charm is missing
The Colours of the Wind museum is Lissa’s favorite place on Ever After Street. After all, she runs it. However, her dreams are shattered when a real estate firm buys the land and wants to demolish the museum.
Warren Berrington is the handsome developer with a modern vision. Despite the initial clash, they work together to show what makes the museum quirky or lovely. However, Lissa is worried that Warren has a hidden agenda that could destroy her dreams forever.
The story comes in Lissa’s first-person POV.
My Thoughts:
Firstly, this can work as a standalone, though I’d recommend you read the first four books, which are really good!
I’ve been a loyal reader of this series and was sad to know it would end, though I’m sure the author will write other books. However, I think it’s the right decision to conclude the series. Despite the beautiful setting and the magical feel, the stories were becoming a little repetitive. Not the terrific themes but the vibe.
The pacing is on the slower side, like the other books, so it’s something I expected. I did like the main characters and their vulnerabilities. It starts pretty much as enemies/opposites, but drifts into friendship and love (this is a cleanish romance).
The author knows how to pick her themes without overwhelming the reader, but also ensures the story offers something valuable. The wishing well track was the best!
I wish we had at least a couple of scenes with the FMC’s sisters or some direct interaction with them. That said, I do like that no attempts have been made to reform a certain character.
Despite everything proceeding as expected, with a good dose of Disney fairytales to add the magical element, I felt the charm was missing. Sure, there were some really touching sentences, but the impact wasn’t as intense as it should have been.
There is HEA, of course, but I did miss an epilogue this time. As the last book in the series, it could have done with a ‘a year later’ epilogue or something like that.
To summarize, Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum is a heartwarming and touching read about being hopeful and believing in magic, as well as accepting ourselves for who we are. Rounding up the rating more for my affection for the series than for the book.
Thank you, NetGalley and Boldwood Books, for the eARC. This review is voluntary and contains my honest opinion about the book.

4⭐
Genre ~ contemporary fiction
Series ~ Ever After Street, #6
Others in the series ~ the whole series
Setting ~ England
Publication date ~ October 13, 2025
Publisher ~ Boldwood Books
Est Page Count ~ 273 (24 chapters)
Audio length ~ 10 hours 13 minutes
Narrator ~ Harriet Collings
POV ~ single 1st, present tense
Featuring ~ small town, small business owner, enemies, slow burn, no steamage
Lissa is thrown for a loop when her Colours of the Wind museum gets a new landlord without her advanced knowledge. It seems like all Warren wants to do is make change after change after change as he types notes on his "Tablet of Gloom (you'll read this term a lot). If it doesn't become profitable within 6 months she's out. So obviously they don't get off on the right foot, which gives off enemies vibes.
I'm not super big on going to museums, but I would totally love to visit this one. It sounds like such a fun and interactive place to visit for children and adults alike. But I do agree with Warren, she could stand to make some changes, especially with the things she chooses to spend money on. $200 shoes is crazy talk! Her heart was in the right place, though.
Warren takes a little bit to warm up to, but hearing his struggles made the kettle boil quicker. It was so sweet when he watched that first wish come true that he helped grant. But of course we have to have a conflict, but actually it didn't bother me too much here.
Overall, whimsically magical. As always, I love the small town vibes with all of the residents on Ever After Street working together for a common goal.
Series notes:
I always say best to read a series in order, but I suppose it's not absolutely necessary to do so. You might just wonder who the couple is that's getting married in this one if you hadn't started from the beginning. I'm sad it's over, but looking forward to whatever series Jaimie writes next.

I received a free copy of, Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum, by Jaimie Admans, from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Lissa only has a few months to save her favorite place, Colours of the Wind museum. This was a whimsical read, I enjoyed Lissa and the the story so much.

Thank you to the publisher, Boldwood Books, for allowing me access to this title! I really appreciate it!
This is book six (and I believe the final book) in the Ever After Street series, but can be read as a standalone. The main character Lissa owns a fairytale museum but Warren, who represents a development company, comes to town to tell her that if the museum can’t make a better profit, it will be torn down.
This is very much Disney meets Hallmark movie — and I mean that in the best way possible! I loved all the references to Disney movies and of course the “developer taking over” plotline is found in TONS of Hallmark movies.
Lissa was such a sweet character. I loved the way that she was always looking to “find the magic” in the world around her and help others find it too. There were so many references to Disney movies and I liked seeing Pascal (there were quite a few references to Tangled) and the magic carpet from Aladdin, among other Disney objects.
Warren was an interesting character and I liked seeing Lissa bring out a softer side to him. There were also a couple of reveals with him that I wasn’t really expecting.
I liked the friend group (the other owners of shops on Ever After Street) and how they were always there for each other.
This was such a sweet book. I’m definitely planning to read the others in the series.

I’ve read and enjoyed all of Jaimie Admans’ enchanting Ever After Street books, and I’m thrilled to say that Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum is just as delightful. Although it’s the sixth in the series, it stands perfectly well on its own, offering a magical, feel-good escape that’s impossible to resist.
Standing in the shadows of the castle, the ‘Colours of the Wind’ museum is run by Lissa, who is passionate about sharing the magic of fairytales with children and kindred spirits. When the building is threatened by developers and rising rent, Lissa must team up with Warren—the landlord’s son—to save the museum.

Jaimie Admans' Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum is a charm offensive wrapped in a love story - a book that knows exactly what it is and commits fully to that vision.
It opens with the perfect trap: a woman about to lose her beloved museum stands alone at a wedding announcement while all her friends have found their "perfect matches." Then arrives Warren Berrington in his expensive suit, threatening demolition unless she can prove the museum is worth saving. The plot is predictable, but Admans tells it with so much warmth and humor that you don’t mind the familiar formula.
The book's greatest strength is its respect for both characters' perspectives without demanding either surrender their integrity. Warren isn't a villain pretending to be good. He's a man trapped in corporate efficiency who genuinely doesn't understand why beauty and community matter and the book takes that seriously rather than mocking it. Lissa isn't foolishly idealistic. She's someone whose single-minded dedication to her museum makes good business sense even if her methods seem quaint. Their conflict is real, not manufactured.
What's particularly humane is how Admans handles Lissa's loneliness. Rather than treating her singleness as something tragic requiring rescue, the book validates her choice to stay single rather than settle, while also showing how isolation compounds when everyone around you is coupled. The pressure she feels from well-meaning friends who treat her lack of a partner as a "problem to solve" feels painfully authentic - especially for readers over thirty who've experienced this exact dynamic. Warren's loneliness - being so focused on profit that he hasn't built genuine human connection- mirrors hers, and their mutual recognition of that becomes the real love story.
The museum itself is a character. Every exhibit description feels crafted with genuine affection. Whether it's Rapunzel's tower with recreated paintings, the floating lanterns installation, or Ariel's grotto reaching up three floors, you understand why Lissa cherishes this place. And the book trusts that you'll care too - it doesn't try to convince you the museum matters through emotional manipulation. It just shows you how beautifully it's been built.
The humor lands consistently, especially the "Tablet of Gloom" running joke and Warren's gradual descent into Disney movie fandom. There's a lovely scene where he admits he cried at Beauty and the Beast, followed by his announcement that he wants to have a raccoon friend like Meeko. It's ridiculous in the best way.
Where It Gets Predictable:
The plot follows the romance roadmap almost mechanically: meet/conflict -> forced proximity -> misunderstanding -> breakthrough -> confession -> resolution. You see the beats coming, which is fine for comfort reading, but doesn't require you to think.
The secondary characters exist mainly to support the central romance - the Ever After Street shopkeepers are delightful but one-dimensional. Sadie and Witt's engagement announcement triggers the plot but then they largely disappear. Mickey exists primarily to be supportive best friend. The villainous Mr. Hastings (local council member) is so cartoonishly obstructionist that he barely feels like an obstacle.
Also, some plot points feel convenient rather than earned. The stakeout scene where they sleep in the museum feels engineered to force intimacy. The discovery about Warren's childhood and his need to prove he can "leave things better" comes quickly and neatly. Real emotional breakthroughs usually feel messier.
Additionally, while the book celebrates Lissa's love of fairytales and wonder, it occasionally tip into saccharine. Phrases like "bringing magic into the world" and characters regularly quoting Disney wisdom get repetitive. And while Warren's transformation from corporate robot to Disney enthusiast is charming, it moves fast , perhaps too fast - from cynicism to admitting he wants a raccoon friend.
The Real Achievement:
What lingers is Admans' core message: spaces that prioritize community and wonder over profit are worth defending, and people who seem completely incompatible can learn to see the world through each other's eyes. She doesn't resolve this tension by having Warren become more idealistic or Lissa become more businesslike. Instead, they create something together that honors both perspectives - his efficiency making her museum sustainable, her heart making his business feel purposeful.
Also notable: this is book four in the Ever After Street series, yet it works as a standalone. You don't need to have read previous books to understand Lissa and Warren's story, though you might find yourself wanting to explore the other shopkeepers afterward.
My Rating:
4/5 stars – A genuinely warm, funny, charming contemporary romance that respects both love and loneliness. Admans writes in prose that feels conversational and welcoming, making the book feel like sitting with a friend who actually understands why fairytales matter. If you love enemies-to-lovers stories, workplace romance, and buildings that are characters in their own right, this delivers exactly what you're looking for without pretending to be something it's not. Not groundbreaking, but absolutely, genuinely satisfying.

It’s cozy, whimsical, light and magical in its own way, it gave me that perfect fairytale feeling without needing dragons, spells or high-stakes battles. The magic here comes from community, kindness and those small moments that feel straight out of a Disney movie.
I’ll be honest, I didn’t even realize this was part of a series until after I started reading but even going in blind, I never felt lost. The constant Disney references and fairytale atmosphere made it so easy for me to connect with everything that was happening and as a total Disney person, that just made the whole thing feel like it was written for me.
What really stood out to me was the found family aspect. The way everyone on Ever After Street came together for Liss moved me so much. It’s exactly the kind of “all for one” moment you’d expect in a Disney ending and it made my heart so full. As for the romance, it started out pretty standard, nothing revolutionary, just that familiar contemporary setup with a side of banter and business conflict but the way it wrapped up was beautiful. Warren opening up, choosing love over money and work, pouring his heart out to Liss and letting himself believe in something whimsical hdkshskad it felt irrational, sure, but in the best way. It’s the kind of choice I know I’d never make in real life, which is why I loved reading it here. That’s the fun of whimsy, isn’t it?
The writing itself isn’t groundbreaking. It’s very much in line with the usual present-day romance style but what I really appreciated was how the author layered in heavier themes. Grief, the absence of parents, children wishing for things no child should have to wish for, the search for purpose and happiness, all of that is there but never overwhelming. It’s sprinkled in just enough to make the story feel meaningful without weighing it down. That balance kept the book cozy while still giving it heart.
Overall, this was such a warm, comforting, and happy read for me. It felt like a love letter to Disney movies, to found family and to the kind of everyday magic that makes life a little brighter. Huge thanks to NetGalley, Boldwood Books and Jaimie Admans. I’m so glad I got to read this as an ARC, because this story really did feel like it was made for me.

I’m going to start this review the way I always start reviews for Jaimie’s books: with the disclosure that Jaimie is my best friend and one of my favourite people. Does that make me biased? Maybe, but she’s also honestly one of my favourite authors and I’ve loved every single one of her books. All opinions expressed are my own and are completely honest.
*
Jaimie Admans’ Ever After Street series is like the magical, whimsical love child of Disney and Hallmark…and as someone who loves both franchises, you can consider that the highest of compliments. These books are sweet, funny, romantic, heartfelt, uplifting, and will make you wish Ever After Street were a real place and that the characters were real too. Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum is the sixth and final instalment in the series, and while each book can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading the whole series, especially if you’re looking to add a little magic to your life.
It was so much fun watching Lissa and Warren go from enemies to tentative friends to more. They were so different, yet they really complemented each other and brought out the best in one another. Their banter was great, and I loved how Lissa’s passion, determination, and dedication for Colours of the Wind sparked Warren’s imagination and made him see things differently. Besides their relationship, the found family aspect was one of my favourite parts of the book. Seeing all the Ever After Street shop owners come together to show their love and support was such a beautiful, heartwarming thing.
One of my favourite aspects of the book would be considered a spoiler, so read on at your own risk:
With all the heavy, dark stuff happening in the world these days, books like this are needed now more than ever. If you’re looking to add some magic, whimsy, and romance into your life, I highly recommend picking up Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum (and the rest of the Ever After Street books too!).

What a beautiful, magical read this is.
I was really enjoying this one, then it just got better and better and I couldn’t put it down.
This read is really fulfilling and poignant, the characters are so well developed.
Lissa runs a rather special museum, one filled with Disney dreams, Princes and Princesses but it has got a bit stuck in its ways, no longer getting as many visitors as it should.
When Warrington comes along, he’s all business, a developer ready to take over the museum and turn it into something far different!
Can Lissa show him the magic of the museum and can they possibly come together to save it?
The author has a great way of keeping the magic and dreams alive for all, this really comes across in her writing. You will leave this book wanting to watch Disney films and dream of all the different characters. It may even remind you that life can have a little magic in it, if you just open your mind and believe.
I loved the way the author makes you really feel towards the characters, some times you will love them, temporarily you may hate them, but then you will fall right back in love with them. You might even give them a talking to now and again!!
When Lissa discovers something about Warren, the author writes this with such sensitivity and clarity. Really exploring the issue from different perspectives and showing how different people may feel, rightly or wrongly. This part really elevated the book even more for me, I really couldn’t put it down after this.
So what am I saying? Definitely pick this up and read it!

Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum is the final chapter in the enchanting Ever After Street Series, and let me tell you, it wraps things up beautifully. This time, it’s Lissa’s turn to shine as she protects the museum and stands up for what she believes in. When developers come knocking, ready to bulldoze her beloved museum for a cinema complex, Lissa pulls out all the stops to protect the magic that lives within those walls…with a little help from her wonderful friends.
Reading this book was such a bittersweet experience for me. On one hand, it’s a heartwarming and cozy story that’s just perfect for those chilly autumn days. On the other hand, it’s the last installment, and saying goodbye to such a delightful series and its vibrant characters is no easy task. I’ve grown so fond of this world and everyone in it!
I absolutely adored witnessing Lissa and Warren’s journey. Their interactions were so genuine, and I loved seeing how they evolved throughout the story. The writing is deep but effortlessly engaging, making it a mesmerizing read without feeling heavy.
This book is magic in its purest form, and I genuinely believe that everyone should pick it up. It’s uplifting, filled with hope, and sprinkled with just the right amount of romance and humor. If you're looking for a story that warms your heart and lifts your spirits, this series is exactly what you need! So grab a cozy blanket and dive in, you won’t regret it!

Another absolutely fantastic addition to the Ever After Street series, and sadly, the last one. I loved how this book brought the whole street together, giving readers a chance to revisit all the charming characters we’ve met along the way.
Can I just say I desperately wish I could visit the Colors of the Wind Museum? It sounds completely magical, and I adored all the clever ways the exhibits connected back to beloved fairytales. The “Night at the Museum” element, with the exhibits coming to life and wandering around Ever After Street, was whimsical and so much fun.
Warren and Lissa’s romance was a super cute enemies-to-lovers arc, filled with witty banter and plenty of swoon-worthy moments. I also really appreciated the hard-of-hearing representation through Warren, it added depth and was handled with care.
I listened to the audiobook and really enjoyed the narration. A perfect, enchanting ending to a delightful series.

Absolutely magical!
Such a wonderful enchanting story that was a delight to read. Lissa is heartbroken when her museum is at risk of being torn down, and so she puts her heart and soul into keeping it going. Warren comes in as an enemy, his company is the one who is pushing for its closure.
However the magic of Ever After Street touches his soul and he finds himself beginning to believe in the magic.
It was fantastic to watch Warren become involved emotionally with the museum and to see him slowly embrace the Disney filled films that Lissa loves.
Several twists occur throughout the story and some gorgeous emotional moments too.
Another spectacular story in one of my favourite book communities. I’m going to miss my visits to this adorable place.

Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum was a cozy, sweet romance. Even though it’s the sixth book in the series, I had no trouble following along. It works as a standalone, with only a few light nods to previous stories.
The FMC runs a fairytale museum inspired mostly by Disney movies, so prepare yourself for a lot of references. At times, the story dragged a little and I found myself skimming when the action slowed down. Still, it was cute overall and I did enjoy the read.
If you’re looking for a low-stakes, low-action, sweet romance, this one might be the perfect fit.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this arc in exchange for an honest review.

I caught up with the Ever After Street crew in this sixth installment of Jaimie Admans series, and it was another corker of a story.
Grumpy sunshine at work here, as L fights W who arrives at her wonderful museum, dedicated to Disney Fairytales, with a plan to demolish it and build a heartless cinema multiplex.
But magic does exist if you believe, and despite some pretty harsh odds, L makes it through with lots of positivity, with help from her Ever After crew, and another unexpected ally.
I truly enjoyed this, and if there was a place like the Colours of the Wind Museum, I would 100% be a regular visitor!
Many thanks to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for an ARC.

Well, I think we can all agree that Ever After Street should be a real place. I will be first in line when it opens! I particularly loved this installment because who wouldn't want to visit a fairytale museum? As a writer myself, I identified with the theme of choosing a creative life that benefits and inspires other people over an unfeeling, money-oriented corporate life.
I highly recommend this entire series. Thank you to the author, the publisher, and NetGalley for the ARC.

Another cute read in this series. The pacing felt a little off at times but overall the story works fine. Lovely to have all the ever after shop owners back again in a story.

Another amazing addition to ever after street. I really do love the way each story has contained fairytale themes and really enjoyed this one containing more. I would love to visit a museum like this.

'Today has been the draggiest day in the history of draggy days.'
I didn’t want to read this book. Not because I thought I wouldn’t like it — I knew I’d adore it — but because it’s the last book in a series I’m not ready to say goodbye to. 😢 Jaimie Admans’ Ever After Street series is one of my most favourite series ever. It’s cute, cosy and funny, and every time I read one of the books, I feel like I’ve been wrapped up in a great big warm hug — no matter which one it is — and Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum is no exception. 💜
I love Lissa’s enthusiasm for the museum she’s so lucky to be in charge of. All she wants is for her visitors to experience the passion she feels, as her exhibits bring joy to children and adults alike. But what she wasn’t expecting was the devastating news that it all might be taken away from her. Enter Warren! Unfortunately, I didn’t like him from the beginning because I knew a Warren at school who was a complete idiot with a stupid name (sorry to all the Warrens out there)! 😂 I can’t say he grew on me, if I’m honest — maybe he would have if he’d been called George, Brad, Tom or Hugh! Haha, I jest — he was okay really.
All the other shopkeepers on Ever After Street are amazing. They all look after each other, they have their own WhatsApp group, and I want to be friends with them all. They adore Lissa, and the things they get up to to try and help her make the museum successful are so sweet, kind and caring.
This is book six in the Ever After Street series, but it can definitely be read as a standalone — although honestly, you need to meet all the other amazing characters and read their stories too. I’ll miss them all a lot. Thank you, Jaimie, for bringing Ever After Street into my life. 💕
Thank you to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum by Jaimie Admans.

*Thank you to Boldwood Books & NetGalley for this eARC; the review is my own.*
Usually when I mistakenly request a book that comes later in a series I haven’t read, I make sure to read the preceding books first. In this case, I was relieved to find out that although the books are connected, they can each be read independently of each other. Having to add five books to my TBR in order to read an ARC did not appeal to me at the moment. Luckily, this book was cute, and I might go back and check out the rest of the series at some point.
Lissa (30s?) and Warren (41) didn’t seem like they would work well together, but they did. I liked seeing Warren come alive and figure out who he really wanted to be. Lissa’s group of friends/fellow shop owners was incredibly supportive of her, and they fought for her as this book indicated she’d fought for them and their stores in the past.
I did struggle with a few things as I was reading, however. First, I found it difficult to believe that anyone could have a Disney-themed museum with exhibits modeled after Disney characters and movies without being sued for copyright infringement and being forced to shut down. The majority of Lissa’s exhibits weren’t just fairytales—they were specifically Disney versions of fairytales (with a few other non-Disney fairytale movies in the mix). I cannot think of a company (especially Disney) that would permit someone to do what Lissa did with her museum.
I also found that I am not particularly fond of the way this author writes. Her story was fun and cute, but it often got lost in her marathon sentences and comma splices. At first I hoped it was just a few mistakes, something that would get tidied up in editing. But as I kept reading, I concluded that it’s just the way she writes.
Although the story felt slow at times, it did pick up. It’s not that I love drama (for the record, I hate it when it’s forced into a book just to keep people apart of drag things on longer), but this book moved along better once a little bit of it was thrown into the mix. It wasn’t out of place, tossed in just to cause problems—the issues that eventually pulled Lissa and Warren out of their little fairytale dream were the whole reason he was there in the first place. It worked. And so did the ending.

Alcohol & drugs: None
Physical Intimacy: Kissing

Usually when I mistakenly request a book that comes later in a series I haven’t read, I make sure to read the preceding books first.

Enjoyed it and would give the book 3.5 stars. The book is a cute and fun read, especially if you love all things surrounding Disney and fairy tales. The series continues on with the Colours of the Wind museum on Ever After Street. The museum really only centers around the cartoon Disney movies. It hardly has anything to do with fairytales. The museum is named after the Pocahontas film, not a fairytale. It even features The Wizard of Oz movie. How does that tie in? From the start I really didn't care for Lissa. Eventually she grew on me but not until the end. That's probably because of Warren or should I call him the demonic gerbil with no soul. I love how her friends will replace gerbil with squirrel and chinchilla. I LOVED Warren right from the start. He was making valid points about the museum and Lissa didn't want to change anything even though she knew Warren was right. She was angry at Warren for stating the truth. How does Lissa afford anything? She practically charges nothing for the entrance fee. She allows guests to destroy and steal items and doesn't seem to care. She just pays to replace them. Children walk around in $2500 glass slippers, use Rapunzel's frying pans to bash things, ruin Lego houses, pick the Sundrop flowers, steal Moana's heart of Te Fiti stone and the list goes on and on. Lissa doesn't want to encroach on any of the other shop owners. She allows them to make money but not herself. From the start I knew Lissa and Warren would be perfect together. It took them a bit longer to realize this. I loved how the exhibits came to life and all the shop owners band together to help a friend. I loved seeing a few of the characters from the previous books and getting updates about them. My biggest question was where were Lissa's sisters and why weren't they helping her? I thought they worked in the hair salon on Ever After Street.
Definitely recommend the book and the previous ones in the series. Enjoyed the story, characters and writing style. Naturally, I want to visit Ever After Street, go into all the stores and become friends with all the shopkeepers. The town sounds like a magical place to live and work. Everyone manages to meet their Prince Charming. Really it's a mini-Disney World without the rides. I look forward to reading more books by the author. I can't wait to see what's happening next on Ever After Street and which will be featured.

I'm really sad that this was the last book of the Ever After Street series – I don't want to let the characters go yet. However, the fact that I was allowed to read the ARC of this amazing book means a lot to me. I couldn't have wished for a better ending to the series.
I was intrigued by the dynamic between Lissa and Warren from the very first pages. They seemed like complete opposites – Warren being stiff, serious, and profit-oriented, whereas Lissa is creative, reliable, and believes in magic. Even though it felt impossible, Lissa managed to bring a spark back into Warren’s life shortly after his arrival. Accompanying their journey was wonderful and worth every minute of reading.
Seeing Lissa’s creativity and experiencing it through the story made me happy and showed me that, with the right ideas, you can create something magical out of the most basic things. This was truly inspiring. And her friends at Ever After Street – it was so nice to see them come together and help Lissa with the Colours of the Wind museum. Having read all the other books, getting glimpses into the lives of the other couples felt like meeting good friends again.
Out of the whole series, the first two books were my favourites because of the vulnerable, hurt, and lonely male characters. Witt and Darcy really broke my heart. The other books were heartfelt and lovely as well, and I truly enjoyed each one of them, but they didn’t touch and move me in the same way the first two did. However, this last book is just as good. I was so sad that Warren felt the need to hide his impairment, and learning more about his loveless childhood broke my heart. His story was everything I had hoped for!
Before I finish this review, I want to highlight an aspect of the whole series that I really appreciate: it’s a closed-door romance without any explicit scenes. While this might seem like a disadvantage to some readers, it absolutely isn’t in my opinion. A heartfelt and deeply emotional story doesn’t need spicy scenes to be enjoyable or to convey a great love story. So thank you, Jaimie Admans :)

This book was an absolute joy to read, and it's one of those rare stories that manages to be both a gripping page-turner and a beautifully written piece of literature.
From the very first chapter, I was completely captivated by the premise. The author weaves a masterful and intricate plot, introducing a central mystery that unfolds with a precision that kept me guessing until the very end. The way each clue and detail was meticulously laid out felt like a trail of breadcrumbs, leading to a truly satisfying and clever resolution. This is a story you need to pay attention to, and the reward is a compelling and deeply rewarding narrative.
The characters are another standout element. They are so much more than just players in a plot; they are nuanced, flawed, and incredibly human. I found myself genuinely invested in their journeys, rooting for their successes and feeling their disappointments. The relationships, both positive and strained, were developed with a great deal of care and authenticity, adding an emotional depth that elevated the entire experience.
While the pacing felt a little sluggish in the mid-section, with a few subplots that seemed to meander a bit, this was a minor quibble in an otherwise excellent book. The slow build-up ultimately paid off, leading to an ending that was not only thrilling but also emotionally resonant and powerful. It tied up all the narrative threads in a way that felt both surprising and inevitable.
This is a fantastic read that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a smart, character-driven story. It’s a testament to the author’s skill that they could craft a tale so compelling on so many different levels.

There was never any doubt in my mind that “Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum” the last in the Ever After Street series, would be fabulous. I loved reading as laughter, tears and a continually racing heart ensued as I anticipated the rollercoaster ride towards an inevitable happily ever.
In this final book of the Ever After series, we find Lissa struggling to keep her Fairytale museum afloat. Always putting the business interests of her friends in Ever After Street and the happiness of her young visitors first, she sidelines ideas to offer new exhibits.
Lissa soon discovers a property acquisition company have bought the building and have no intention of preserving the building or having a museum on the site. Cue the evil gerbil of businessmen - handsome, astute and cold, the man sent to learn more about the museum and offer the opportunity for it to survive if it can make more money. He looks over the site with distain, no understanding of what it stands for and absolutely no experience of fairytales, Disney or otherwise. Of course, he isn’t quite as evil as he first seems and the magical museum with sentient exhibits that go missing, hide and terrify the shopkeepers of Ever After Street starts to grow on him. As his eyes become opened to the joy of childhood, imagination and magic he opens up to Lissa.
One of the children that visits the museum
throws a wish down into the museum’s magic wishing well saying “I wish I could return again” and the sentiment rings true for both the potentially reformed evil gerbil and for me as I wish this was not the last book in an incredible series. A five star read. Thank you so much Jaimie for encouraging the child like romantic in me and creating such a joyful setting. I Thanks also go to the publisher Boldwood Books for the opportunity to read an eARC of this book.

Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum is the sixth and final story in the Ever After Street series, and although I have not yet read the earlier books, I believe you could enjoy Lissa and Warren’s story as a standalone without much trouble. I didn’t feel lost, but this story certainly spiked my curiosity enough that I will go back to the beginning of the series to see how it all unfolded. I’ll always believe the best reader experience is found when one can read a series from the start in order, but in reality, that isn’t always possible. I enjoyed my time here in this world and look forward to discovering how it all started.
Lissa’s beloved Colours of the Wind museum is in deep trouble. Recently, the land on which the museum sits has been taken over by a developer determined to demolish the building. Lissa’s only hope to save her dream lies with Warren and his reluctant choice to give her a set period of time to make the museum profitable… or it goes up in dust along with her dreams. Which might have been easier said than done if not for a bit of magic… or was it?
I had so much fun reading Lissa and Warren’s story. I am a huge Disney buff, so yes, I was in Disney-heaven most of the time I was reading Dreams Come True at the Fairytale Museum by Jaimie Admans. I loved watching the romantic development of this couple, and the whimsical aspects of the museum and the community. If you enjoy a magical, well-written, emotionally engaging romance, then this one would be a perfect match for you.

I always know what I'm going to get when I read a Jaimie Admans book. A sweet Romance, a strong community, and a large dose of humour. This is book six in the Ever After Street series, and whilst it can easily be enjoyed as a standalone I highly recommend reading the whole series in order and meeting all of the fabulous characters that live and work on this magical street.
In the opening pages of this book Lissa is dealt a devastating blow; her landlord has sold her beloved museum to a property developer with no prior warning, With the building under threat from being torn down to make way for an entertainment complex, Lissa must turn the fortunes of the museum around; not only to cover the newly inflated rent, but to prove that it's a viable business capable of turning a profit.
Warren and Lissa are polar opposites on the surface, but they can learn a lot from each other and Lissa soon comes to realise that he does have some good ideas for the museum, if she only she wasn't too stubborn to listen to him! Warren on the other hand soon comes to realise that there are in fact some things that are more important than money as he comes to embrace the magical qualities of the museum.
I loved the verbal sparring between the pair and of course it wasn't long before sparks start to fly as Lissa finds that there is more to Warren than meets the eye. Jaimie Admans is brilliant when it comes to writing characters that seem so different to each other, yet make for a perfect pairing and it was certainly no different with Warren and Lissa.
I loved the underlying themes of magic and whimsy and how you're never too old to embrace both of them. I think a lot of kids grow up far too quickly nowadays and definitely don't believe in magic for nearly long enough, so I loved that the museum appeals to people of all ages, showing that even adults can enjoy a bit of magic in their lives.
I have loved this entire book series and I'm so sad that it's over with this being the final instalment. I don't quite feel ready to say goodbye to Ever After Street and it's wonderful community, however, everything I've read by Jaimie Admans has been brilliant so I'm also looking forward to what else she has in store for us.

Firstly I would like to start my review by saying a huge thankyou to @lovebookstours , @jaimieadmans1 and @theboldbookclub for my copy of Dreams Come True At The Fairytale Museum via @netgalley in return for this review. When I started reading the book I didn’t realise it was actually part of the Ever After Street series and this is in fact book 6! I haven’t read any of the others and was a little worried that I wouldn’t be able to fully understand the characters backgrounds, the setting of the book or manage to understand any of the story. However I didnt need to worry at all as this instalment can be fully read as a standalone. Not once did I feel disadvantaged! Jaimie’s writing is comedic, heartwarming and descriptive. Ever After Street is full of life and a host of vibrant colourful characters who you just want to be friends with in real life. I would happily move to the street where everyone pulls together in a crisis and all become a family. I absolutely loved the FMC Liss’s outlook on life and how she wanted to make all her customers believe in magic no matter their age! Which is exactly how Jaimie makes her readers feel too. When reading I literally forgot about any worries I had like they had floated away down the wishing well at the fairytale museum. Warren Berrington the MMC starts off as a closed off flower but he soon starts to open up petal by petal giving more of himself to Liss. Watching there fondness for each other blossom over the course of the book was really heartwarming to witness.
This novel is packed with lots of fairytale and Disney referances which were right up my street from mentions of Tangled’s Pascel to classics such as cinderella. It was so magical and whimisical. Highly reccomend to any disney fan as you just didnt kniw who or what aretefact would be turning up next. I truly wish I could visit not only the museum but also all the shops on the street.
