Isla-Dove Kepperton would do just about anything to escape the life of slavery that she lives - except possibly kill a unicorn. There is only one left, and with its death would come a curse. She isn't so sure a happily ever after is worth rendering unicorns extinct, nor being haunted by dark magic. When a new opportunity for freedom arises that includes partnering with a young man under a curse of his own, Isla-Dove begins to wonder if she can achieve her happily ever after without the blood price. Or maybe the unicorn really must die for her to truly live. _________________________________________ FANTASY | | ADVENTURE

A harmless game of "Twerk or Dare", gets Georgia Gibson, closet-drama-geek, stumbling into the path of Pearce Conway. The infamous know-it-all brainiac in her grade who's seen as irritating to both teachers and students. It'll be no sweat, Georgia's truthfully a pro at putting on an act. The only smidge of an issue; she has a hard time remembering what's for show and what's real. This time, it comes at a bigger cost when her alter ego is falling head over heels for Pearce and doesn't want to quit the 'charade'. Only then do the games truly begin... **completed**
