Love is a curse you can’t break

The destruction I was destined to cause was unfathomable.

Cursed at birth, 16-year-old Drinn has been hidden away from the world – moved from house to house to ensure that she never finds love. But this year, she has decided to break free.

Fleeing, Drinn finds herself in Oblison, surrounded by others just like her – cursed girls whose lives are dangerous and wild. They vow to liberate themselves once and for all. But rebellion is dangerous, and if Drinn finds love before the curse can be broken, a terrible fate could befall them all…

This page turning, nail-biting adventure is fresh new teen romantic fantasy that relishes the power of girls and celebrates the ultimate life-giving power of love and friendship. With its surprising enemies to lovers storyline and ambitious fantasy world, this book is sure to delight fans of Samantha Shannon and Stephanie Garber.

Praise for The Dandelion Riots

“The writing shines the most at its high-stakes moments of disaster. The romance between the two female leads also shines here… Against the backdrop of their revolution comes a beautiful and bittersweet romance. In this book, love and revolution are not too distinct concepts happening simultaneously; rather they are deeply entwined, and the dandelion girls’ love for each other is what gives them the strength to demand more from their world.”
