Welcome to

Monique Brasher’s
modern fairytales

I write modern fairytales set in small magical towns where the found family shows up before the romance does, the happily ever after is always guaranteed, and the magic is absolutely real. All of my romances are closed-door/no spice, emotionally rich, and absolutely full of swoon—with nothing beyond kisses on the page.

  • This was my first book by Monique Brasher, and I loved it! I loved the fairytale elements, the magic, and the tie into A Christmas Carol. I’m glad that Leila could see clearly what could be.
