If I might make the suggestion, Becca, put your titles in quotation marks and/or italicise them. In some cases I'm not sure what the exact title is.

You start every story description with the title of the story except the last one. For consistency, why not put "Child of Promise" somewhere near the beginning of its paragraph?

And finally, your last line is a value judgement which belongs to your readers. Of course you think they are gems, but perhaps tone it down a bit. How about:

These five modern fairy tale gems, timed just right for bedtime reading, will delight the entire family.

And btw, what do you mean by timed just right for bedtime reading? I'm reading the blurb at ten minutes to two in the afternoon.

Another point: I've been so involved in the production of these stories, from criticising the story line through decisions on cover photos and a review of the blurb that I think I'll have to buy a copy when it comes out!
