The Great War

Wars are rarely started by the people forced to fight them.

For centuries, the Rosiers and the Beaumonts have been sworn enemies-a blood feud so bitter it drove the Beaumont family out of England for generations.

Raised on stories of everything the Rosiers stole from her family, Gabby Beaumont returns to England at eleven years old to attend Hogwarts, completely alone. She knows only one thing for certain:

Never trust a Rosier.

So she spends six years hating Evan Rosier for a war he never even knew existed.

While Gabby is convinced his constant flirting is nothing more than a cruel joke, Evan falls in love with the American girl who can't stand the sight of him.

By sixth year, she finally lets herself love him too.

Then summer comes.

His letters stop.

And when seventh year begins, Evan returns with another girl on his arm.

What Gabby doesn't know is that Evan never stopped loving her. His parents had arranged his future long before he ever chose her-but he never told her the truth.

Some wars are inherited.

Others are fought with broken hearts.
