Abbey wasn’t always a wicked stepmother. Once upon a time, she was just an average, overweight single mother, whose life revolved around her two daughters. Then the handsome and charming Bradley swept her off her feet. Abbey was ready to live “happily-ever-after”—until reality set in, bringing with it an incorrigible stepdaughter, newfound telekinetic powers and betrayal by friends and family. With her life now on track to meet the same fate as the fairy tale villainess, Abbey decides to embrace her role as a wicked stepmother and make her own happy ending.
