''Ogre Enchanted'' is a 2018 prequel to the beloved children's novel ''Literature/EllaEnchanted'' written by Gail Carson Levine.

Evie is a talented young healer in her small village who's happiest when she's working. However, things change for her one day when her best friend Wormy proposes marriage to her. Evie declines as she's not ready to think about marriage yet. As bad luck would have it though [[TheDreaded Lucinda]] from the original Ella Enchanted novel had shown up to bless the proposal. Enraged at Evie's rejection Lucinda curses her into the form of an Ogre and will only lift the curse upon someone proposing to her. Evie ends up finding herself going on a quest to see if she can break the spell or find her true love. Along the way, she ends up getting mixed up in some royal affairs...
