Cherry-Rose: Blood & Wishes is a horroresque fairy-tale retelling that turns wishing upon a star into an allegory for when wishes go wrong. Set in modern California, this coming-of-age story is woven with beasts, a Blue Fairy, and an unexpected romance all set against the backdrop of classic fairy tale horror.
Cherry-Rose struggles at home when she finds herself reborn into a world that seems too good to be true, because it is exactly that. Too quickly her loving sisters vanish and the doting mother of her funeral-birthday-changed. In time she breaks free from the isolation of the forest and her overbearing mother in the hope of finding her sisters. However, on the other side of the forest, she seems to have found more trouble than she had at home. On the journey to find her sisters, Cherry-Rose is pursued by a gang peddling a drug called pixie-dust, she finds help in the form of a beastly mentor, and she is presented with the prospect of love in a world that just might be more dangerous than the forest filled with all of its chasing wolves.
