Rumours are the lifeblood of Idlewood, Indiana. The locals whisper that the De Lucas are witches, and that decades prior they cursed the wealthy Barrion family as revenge for a love gone tragically wrong: now, if a Barrion falls in love with you, you’ll die. If this isn’t reason enough for wallflower Penny Emberly to stay away from both families, she doesn’t know what is. But when Penny’s mom is in an accident that leaves her on the brink of death, Penny can’t ignore the rumours anymore – because the Barrion curse is real. And her mom is its latest victim. In order to save her mom’s life, Penny must bring together two bitter enemies on either side of the feud and work with them to break the curse.
