Don't Break This Curse

Book excerpt: Life’s not fair. At least, that’s what I think when my country music dad and his band, Texas Toast, go back on the road for a reunion tour and ship me off to a boarding school in Nowhere, Oregon. Away from my friends and family. Well, not so much friends. I’ve been a loner for two years—since my friend was swept out to sea. Something that I saw in waking dreams for weeks before the accident. Not that I think I’m psychic or anything. Just crazy. At least, that’s what I believe until I meet Maureen “Cat” Douglas and Reema Zerelli, who inform me that my visions are just the Sight. I’m a blood witch, with an unshakable destiny. This pleasant tidbit is quickly derailed by new visions. Images of ice and snow monsters claiming H.G. Horton Preparatory Academy and Boarding School. The only clue to prevent this disaster is the name Bran—an ancient deity under a curse that only I can break. What curse? No one knows. How will I break it? Not a clue. But we have until the winter solstice to figure it out.
