Love & Other Curses

<p><strong>I'm pretty sure I'm the only guy in my school who can replace a faulty kick-down switch and also create the perfect smoky eye.</strong></p><p>The Weyward family has been haunted by a curse for generations--if a Weyward falls in love before their seventeenth birthday the person they love dies.</p><p>Sam doesn't plan to fall for anyone in the weeks before his birthday. He'll spend his time working at the Eezy-Freeze with his dad; cooking up some midsummer magic with his grandmother great-grandmother and great-great-grandmother (the Grands); and experimenting with drag with the help of the queens at the Shangri-La the local gay club.</p><p>But when a new guy comes to town Sam finds himself in trouble when they strike up a friendship that might be way more than that.</p><p>As Sam's birthday approaches and he still hasn't quite fallen in love the curse seems to get more powerful and less specific about who it targets.</p><p>A mysterious girl Sam talks to on the phone late at night and a woman he's only seen in a dream might have the answers he's been looking for--but time is running out to save the people he cares about.</p>
