A debut contemporary fantasy perfect for fans of TJ Klune and Charlaine Harris, featuring werewolves, fae princes, and an ancient curse in rural America.

Alana Taskey—part elf, part werewolf, all sass—has all-time rotten luck. In her middle-of-nowhere hometown, her trailer routinely goes missing and she’s usually left holding the bag when her ill-tempered father gets into trouble.

When Alana is in a car accident that kills Mrs. O’Brien—known affectionately around town as Mamaw Faery—the fae’s eerily beautiful and undeniably magnetic grandson blames Alana. Alana then accidentally taps into ancient fae magic to swear an oath that will curse her and her family in three days’ time unless she delivers the one magical item that can fix everything she broke: the Feather of Mother Donaghy. 

As Alana and her beloved half-brother Gervis search for the Feather, they meet another handsome fae, haggle with the local sea monster (who is also the fry cook at the burger joint), and ferret out a nearby nest of arrogant vampires, all while avoiding the police and their father. As the clock ticks down, Alana will have to use her brash wits, her hillbilly ways, and just a touch of magic to save her family and find something bigger for herself.
