Winging It

(Destiny Rules, #1)
Publication date: March 30th 2019
Genres: Fantasy, Young Adult
Sixteen-year-old Zach discovers his mom is a fairy godmother. But what’s really freaking him out is the fact that he’s a fairy too. Now that his mom’s been injured, he must finish her assignments before the next full moon or they’re both grounded, meaning no wings, no wands, and no position in the Organization of Destiny Fulfillment (ODF). Sure it would suck to lose his newfound powers, but Zach quickly learns there’s far more at stake. Failure also means messing up the lives of the people he’s supposed to help.
Forever.
Between a fairy-trainee who happens to be the girl he’s been in love with since fifth grade, a boss he doesn’t trust, and a gremlin physics teacher that wants to eat him, Zach’s pretty sure even a magic wand can’t bail him out.
Winging It has been a featured book on WATTPAD and here are just a few of the comments from readers:
“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! BRAVO BRAVO! I sincerely, really loved this book. What was funny is I went out on a wing from werewolf and tried out fantasy and I love it. Your book inspires me to read more fantasy. Excellent story telling.”
“Amazing, absolutely amazing. What a beautiful ending.”
“I love this ending! It leaves just enough loose ends that imagination can fill in the gaps. Whatever happens next, I’m glad I somehow found this amazing book!”
“This was one of the best books I’ve ever read please make a sequel!!”
“I really enjoyed the book! And i spent like two whole days reading it.. i couldnt put it down at all XD
And like everyone else if like to read a sequel… soo….SEQUEL!!”
“I have to get you your happily ever after by sunset on the next full moon or bad things happen. To me and my mom.”
“My happily ever after?” she asks in a dreamy sort of way.
“Yeah. I’m supposed to fix you up with your soulmate. Your prince charming.”
She smiles, her eyes lighting up. “Then get back over here.”
I throw my head back and groan. “I’m not him, Kelly.”
Silence.
I risk a look. She’s sitting on the edge of her bed, twisting her blanket in one hand. “You’re the one I like,” she says. “I can’t imagine falling for someone else by the full moon.”
“I like you too,” I say. “I do, but it doesn’t work that way. You’re supposed to be with Bo.”
“You mean Bo Tyler?” she asks, laughing. “Quarterback of the football team, most popular guy at school, Bo Tyler?”
“Yeah.”
“No way. I mean, he’s good looking, but he was just a silly crush. I don’t even know him. And he isn’t as cute as you, Zach. In fact, I doubt he could ever compete with someone like you.”
“You only like me because I’m a fairy,” I say.
“That’s not true, but it is pretty cool.”
“No. I mean that’s part of my nature. Fairy Charm. That’s why we’re not supposed to get involved with humans. They can’t tell if it’s really us they love, or our nature. Plus, you have a thing for me because of your book fantasies.” I point to the shelves.
“I’m pretty sure it’s you I like,” she says. “I did before you told me any of this.”
“If you don’t get together with Bo in less than a week, I will lose my wings and my wand.”
“That’s not fair,” she says, standing.
“Nope. But there it is.”
“So, you want me to be stuck with some dumb football player for the rest of my life just so you can keep your wings?” she asks, stepping up so we’re nose-to nose-and poking my chest.
“No! I mean, sort of. But only because he’s your soul mate. Really! I’m not making this shit up, Kelly. It’s real. Just… just give me a chance. I mean him. Give him a chance. If I fix you two up, will you do that?”
“Only if you agree to seeing me too.” She narrows her eyes at me and purses her lips so the dimples in her cheeks deepen.
I sigh. She isn’t getting this. “Kelly—”
“Those are my terms. I promise to give him an honest chance if you give me one too.”
