Ever since I saved her sophomore year science experiment from literally going up in flames, I’ve known that Greta Rose is the one for me.

She’s sassy, smart as hell, and has a sweet body I’d love to taste every inch of — Greta’s the girl of my dreams.

Two years later, we’re high school grads with the world at our feet.

The only thing that stands between us and happily ever after is my controlling mother.

There’s no telling what she’ll do when she discovers I’ve been hiding the love of my life from her for years . . .

Hank and Greta’s standalone story in the Once Upon a Happily Ever After series is very loosely inspired by the story of Hansel and Gretel and features:

  • high school sweethearts


  • double virgins


  • sweet and sexy young love


  • #lakelife


  • cookies!


The Once Upon a H.E.A. series is what happens when folktales and contemporary romance meet, fall madly in love, and have lots of little book babies. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and only consensual shenanigans await. Happily ever after guaranteed!

Out now!

Reader Praise for the Once upon a H.E.A. series::

SWEET was a great story. The plot and characters were strong. The story was written well. Poppy Parkes did a great job on it. I enjoyed Greta and Hank's story.”

“When you think about retelling fairy tales, Hansel and Gretel is not one that immediately comes to mind. But this author took the idea and ran! Wonderful! Hank and Greta aren't brother and sister, but rather boyfriend and girlfriend. High school sweethearts! Love it! And the wicked witch is Hank's mother .... as a very demanding business owner. A few bumps and bruising along with some growing pains, but as in all fairy tales, everything works out in the end. Cute and fun, if you enjoy fairy tales, you'll like this book!”

“Hank and Greta were super cute together. I loved their connection and their quirkiness with other. Very little drama but a whole lot of love in this book. I recommend this book and can't wait for the rest of the series!”
