From debut author Maiga Doocy comes the charming tale of an impulsive sorcerer and his curmudgeonly rival as they must venture deep into a magical forest in desperate search of the counterspell that can break the curse binding them to each other--only to discover that magic might not be the only thing pulling them together. Leovander Loveage is a master of small magics. He can summon butterflies with a song or turn someone's hair pink by snapping his fingers, but anything more elaborate simply blows up in his face. But minor charms are easily overlooked by well-versed sorcerers, leaving Leo to vow to never cast powerful magic again. That is, until a forbidden spell binds Leo to obey the commands of his longtime rival, Sebastian Grimm. Grimm is Leo's complete opposite--respected, exceptionally talented, and absolutely insufferable. They need a counterspell and fast, but seeking help means revealing the magic that binds them and the only thing the rivals can agree on is that they must avoid being caught using forbidden magic at all costs or risk ending their magical careers for good. When rumors of a powerful sorcerer with a knack for undoing curses sparks hope, Leo and Grimm enter the Unquiet Wood, a forest infested with murderous monsters and dangerous outlaws alike. To break the curse, they will have to uncover the true depths of Leo's magic, set aside their long-standing rivalry, and--much to their horror--work together.
