But, instead of finding treasure, she (accidentally) releases a fiend into the realm. As penance for her crime, the immortal tasks her with capturing the fiend.

But can the boy who could ruin everything she’s worked so hard for, be the only one who can make it right? || Book #1.5 of The Dating Manual series ||
