Luck is a gamble-especially when the odds are always in your favor. Evelyn "Evie" Cross has always had an unusual relationship with luck. While others fight tooth and nail to survive in a world ruled by skill and strategy, Evie breezes through life on a series of improbable coincidences, absurdly fortunate accidents, and just the right amount of reckless charm. With a Luck stat that defies reason, she's used to getting into-and out of-trouble with impossible ease. But when a seemingly harmless night of mischief sets off a chain of events she never saw coming, Evie finds herself swept into a game where the stakes are far higher than she ever imagined. Powerful forces are watching. Dangerous players are moving their pieces. And whether she likes it or not, Evie is now part of something much bigger than her usual string of lucky wins. Dodging bounty hunters, outwitting schemers, and navigating the attention of those drawn to her unexplainable fortune, she quickly learns that not everyone sees luck as a gift-some see it as a weapon. As secrets unravel and the risks escalate, Evie must figure out whether she's the one rolling the dice... or if she's already been played. Because in a world where the house always wins, even the luckiest person alive might eventually run out of cards.

After attending years of public school and for reasons unknown, sixteen-year-old Evelyn Hollyander AKA Evie, finds herself suddenly "dumped" at Pinehurst, a stuffy private school for the Mageia—the children of magic. Gone are the days of Geometry and Keyboarding, Evie’s schedule now consists of classes that teach defensive spells and charms against the deadly creatures of the Underworld. She discovers that her magical abilities are far more pronounced than that of her classmates, or even her teachers for that matter. She's forced into sixth period PE, boys only “boot-camp” for Slayers; and is taunted by some of the students for being the only female Slayer—ever! But life isn’t all that bad. She has a ten alarm crush on Antonio, a hunky nineteen year old Slayer who is assigned as her personal trainer. She’s ecstatic until she realizes that Antonio can also communicate with her telepathically—translation: he can hear every steamy thought she has for him. After learning that her father has been captured and is being held hostage in Hell of all places, Evie seeks help from Antonio and Havoc, a feisty pixie who Evie’s sure is evil incarnate. The three of them journey into the Underworld, battle two-headed vipers, a troll, and spiders that are big enough to suck your face off. She’s propositioned by the Lord of the Underworld himself. Proving more powerful than expected, Evie is an acquisition he must have—as well as his ticket to the Outer World. The bargain: the safety of her friends and the knowledge to save her father's life in exchange for an unthinkable price.
