Cather Stevens doesn’t love. Not now, not ever. She has spent her entire life watching love ruin her mother, her aunts, her cousins, her grandmother, and she made a vow a long time ago that she would never let that happen to her. But when she meets a winged boy named Hermes who claims to be a Greek god, and he tells her that she is the key to ending a curse that has plagued the women in her family for centuries, she will have to redefine everything she knows about love, life, and herself.

With more than just her own heart on the line, she agrees to help Hermes find her great-great grandmother’s diary, which was hidden long ago beneath her town. Only it can answer all of her questions, especially one: are the stories of star-crossed love that she grew up hearing actually fiction like she was taught to believe, or are they something more…something real?
