A touch of magic meets a romantic mystery in this delightful YA rom-com, where a love-cynical teen with the ability to manipulate emotions gets in over her head when she accidentally curses the school bad boy into falling in love with her.
Of all her sisters, only Riya inherited the full powers of their peri ancestor, a fey creature specializing in emotion magic…especially the sacred power of love.
Riya has never been interested in love-much to the disappointment of her best friend, Mel, who really, really wants Riya to get Mel and her crush together before senior year's over. The only thing Riya cares about, truthfully, is forgetting the last, disastrous time she used her powers.
So, when Mel finally convinces her to give her crush a tiny push, she's horrified when the peri magic lashes out of control yet again. Instead of a casual love spell, she's placed an accidental love curse on the school bad boy, Kian Kho. Riya doesn't like Kian one bit-but if the curse isn't reversed by the next full moon, his unrequited love could leave him literally heartbroken.
As the letters, public declarations, flowers, and songs pile up, there's only one way out: master her peri magic and break the curse-before they're both love-stuck forever.
