About this ebook

Since Queen Olympia's fateful fall into the river, newlyweds Christian and Marigold have been living happily ever after. And they had every intention of keeping it that way--until they find out that Olympia may not be as gone as they thought. Turns out Olympia is alive and well in a faraway village, having lost her memory after her ill-timed tumble. But one day she awakes and remembers her previous glory as queen. Accompanied by Lazy Susan (Sleeping Beauty's slacker sister) and Stan Lucasa (a gentleman with a surprising destiny), Olympia returns, determined to take back the kingdom. Yet, thanks to a cast of familiar characters, grabbing the throne may not be as easy as Olympia thinks!

Ratings and reviews

I have to be honest, the first book was much better. But, I still really like it and it was interesting. I really do like jean ferris's way of writing.

I don't want to spoil it I will say this even though it's a children's book it's a great read. It made me laugh...cry...angry...and happy I recommend this to anyone. I can honestly see these books (Once Upon a Marigold and Twice Upon a Marigold) as movies.

Haven't finish the the first one yet.
