From
senior class president to dejected social outcast, with just the
flick of a match.
After
accusations of torching her ex-boyfriend’s home are followed by the
mysterious poisoning of her ex-best friend, seventeen-year-old
Holland Briggs assumes her life is over. And it is. But not in the
way she thinks.As Holland learns the truth about her cursed fate—that she is descended from the Beast most have only ever heard of in fairytales—she unites with an unlikely ally, good-looking newcomer Mick Stevenson.
Mick knows more about Holland’s twisted history than she does, and enlightening as it is to learn about, his suggestion for a cure is unsettling at best. Holland must fall in love with Mick in order to break the spell, and save their future generations from repeating her cursed fate. Having sworn off love after the betrayals of her ex-boyfriend and ex-best friend, this may be difficult to accomplish.
Complicating things further for Holland and Mick, time runs out, and Holland’s change begins way before schedule. With Holland quickly morphing into a dangerous mythical creature, Mick struggles to save her.
Should they fail, Holland will be lost to the beast inside her forever.
About
the Author:
Jessa
Russo believes in fairytales, ghosts, and Jake Ryan. She insists
mimosas were created for Sundays, and that’s not up for discussion.
She’s obsessed with the great city of New Orleans—where she’s
collected too many beads to count, eventually married her sweetheart,
and visited graveyards they don’t include on maps.
She’s
loud, painfully honest, and passionate about living life to the
fullest, because she’s seen how abruptly it can be taken away.
What
began as a desire for reading and writing young adult paranormal has
bled into stories of all kinds. From fantasy to pre-dystopian to
erotic contemporary, Jessa’s stories always include romance, though
she’s given up on pigeonholing her work into a category or genre
box.
Jessa
was born and raised in Southern California, and remains there to this
day with her husband (a classic car fanatic), their daughter (a Tim
Burton superfan), and a Great Dane who thinks he’s the same size as
his Chihuahua sister.
ENTWINED,
the final installment of Russo’s Ever Trilogy, will be released
later this year, as well as an erotic romance written under the
pseudonym Parker Jameson, so please stay tuned!
