Gabi Stevens's novel, AS YOU WISH, pulls the reader in
quickly---I'll admit to doing a brief scan of the first few
pages to decide when to read the work and finding myself
with chilled coffee and tired knees since I forgot to sit
down! The characterization is just excellent and
immediately tugs the reader into the events as quickly as
they are dropped on the protagonist Reggie Scott's head!
Reggie's lived her life as the nonmagical one in a magical
family, and she's had success with her nonmagical
aspirations. However, when the role of fairy godmother is
quickly thrust upon her ---with no directions--- Reggie has
to rework her entire worldview, her relationships with her
parents and sister, and keep an eye out for those who might
want to use her new abilities to help themselves, people
like Johathan Bastion. However, with help coming from
surprising places, Reggie has to learn whether or not to
trust those people who are supposed to protect her in
addition to learning to trust herself. As far as the novel
is concerned, most readers should eagerly read the previous
books, As You Wish and The Wish List, and
anticipate Gabi Stevens next book. I know I will!

Born into a magical family, Reggie Scott is content to live
out her life as a normal human until the moment she’s
informed that she’s a newly appointed fairy godmother. Left
struggling to deal with powers the never thought she’d have,
Reggie faces a curse, a plot to overthrow the Arcani, and an
entirely too enthusiastic mother—all in a matter of days.
Jonathan Bastion is a man of power and wealth—and a
dangerous secret. He desperately hopes that Reggie's new
powers will hold the answer to his problem and he isn't
above using her to achieve his goals. What he doesn't expect
is how much Reggie will affect him. Her honor, her honesty,
and her strength quickly make cracks in his ruthless exterior.
As danger from the Arcani swirls around them both, Jonathan
realizes that what was once a ploy to get Reggie to assist
him has become a battle to keep her safe and protected…in
his arms.
