Sophie čakala celý život na to, kým ju unesú do Školy dobra, kde sa z nej stane princezná, nájde si toho pravého princa a budú spolu naveky šťastní. Teda aspoň taký bol plán. Sophie a jej kamarátka Agatha totiž pochádzajú z Gavaldonu, mestečka, kde sa každé štyri roky stratia dve deti. Nikto však netuší, kam sa vlastne podejú. V Škole dobra a zla sa z nich potom podľa predurčenia stanú kladné alebo záporné rozprávkové postavy.
The alternative - the school talking to her nervous wreck of a mum - is not an option. Lottie's uncertainty about Bake Club melts away as she rekindles her love of baking and gets caught up with Mac, the school rebel and another unwilling Bake Club member. Both Lottie and Mac have secrets to keep and would much rather not get involved, but as Bake Club progresses towards an end-of-year competition, the tension rises. Can Lottie keep up the facade of her perfect life without the others finding out what's really going on at home? And can her bubbling romance with Mac survive the pressure?
