Read OnlineWhat if one of history's (cough) less-fortunate heroes got a second chance? All sugar-and-spice, adventurous Crusa is once again in the embrace of her aunt's magical kitchen. Her family (or at least, one side of it) is thrilled, because (finally!) they can throw her a most-advantageous wedding. Her escapades get a rough start, as her not-quite-fairy godparents get her a bodyguard, the fiery Lium.Fate's funny. It begins with an unwritten recipe... Back from military school, adventurous dreamer Crusa is once again in the embrace of her aunt's magical kitchen. Her whole family (or at least, one side of it) is thrilled, because (finally!) they can throw her a most-advantageous wedding. Crusa has fun with the rough, easily frustrated man who she likes to refer to as the "babysitter guy" (to everyone but him, of course). Little does she know, the playful, thrill-seeking Lium and his moody brother Hale are fighting to hold their own against both sides of her feuding family. They're joined by a rambunctious cast of characters revived from ancient myths and colorful New England legends. At its heart, the story of a girl, her family, her friends, and her island. Quick wit and slick talk spur Crusa's story to a wild conclusion with equal parts humor and heart through this spirited family drama.
