Cassius Blackwood has always been proud-of his skills, his wit, and his undeniable charm. But when a duel with Gabrielle Lennox, the sharp-tongued and fiercely clever Ravenclaw, ends in a draw, Cassius finds himself in unfamiliar territory: intrigued.
Gabrielle isn't like the other girls at Hogwarts. She doesn't swoon, doesn't shy away from his banter, and most annoyingly of all, she knows exactly how to challenge him. Their rivalry quickly becomes something more-a game of words, glances, and the occasional forbidden stroll to the Forbidden Forest.
As the two stubborn, strong-willed students navigate their ever-growing connection, they'll discover that their trust and understanding truly make them stronger.
A witty, lighthearted tale of two Hogwarts students who just can't seem to stay away from each other-even when they pretend they want to.
