Irish banshees must act as humans one year in every hundred in order to build the empathy to sing dying souls into the afterlife. One such banshee, Caoimhe, attends a high school in Tyler, Texas. Caoimhe (pronounced 'kee va) tries to fit in and make friends even as an otherworldly force builds its strength in the east Texas woods, threatening her friends, her fairy self, and even worse? The winter formal.

"Fair skin. Sweet voice. Flat tummy. Shy and gentle." If that's the checklist for a perfect heroine, let me save your internet data. I scored a solid zero out of five. My name is Priya. I'm 25, dark-skinned, 62 kg, and have a voice so heavy that delivery boys call me "Brother" on the phone. I never expected love. I just wanted to work my government job in Madurai and live freely. But without warning, my traditional, horoscope-obsessed father dropped a bomb: I was getting married in exactly two weeks. I didn't even see the guy's face properly before the Thali was tied. Now, I am stuck with Varun-a 27-year-old child specialist doctor at Madurai GH. He has a brilliant, smooth accent, a cool attitude, and a dangerously short temper. He didn't want this marriage either. This isn't a fairy tale. It's a forced reality between two total strangers. Click "Read" to see if we survive each other.
