    Every year, she heads up the Enchanted Coast costume party, but this year, she's been invited to the angels ball, a luxury affair that no mortal has ever attended. Though she'd much rather eat candy and hang out with Valkyries, faeries, mermaids, and selkies at her resort, she doesn't have much choice. After all, it's not every day that a real, honest-to-heaven angel honors you with an invitation. After agonizing over her gown and oohing and awwing over the grandeur of the angelic palace where the ball will be held, Destiny starts to notice some serious parallels between what she knows as fairytales and the real-life truth of one of the women she meets. The only problem is that, as usual, whoever spread the stories got them wickedly wrong. The evil stepmother isn't so bad after all, but that prince - he's a real tool. When her new friends fall victim to a curse, Destiny has to break it or risk losing the beautiful princess to eternal slumber. Evil princes, dark wizards, and ancient curses? Pht.
