Description
Outlander gets a witchy Meg Cabot twist in this captivating and romantic YA contemporary fantasy following two witches who must travel back in time to stop an ancient curse.
The moment new guy Jarrod Thornton walks into the room, Kate senses something strange and mesmerizing about him. Something supernatural. Her instincts are proven correct a few minutes later when, bullied by his classmates, Jarrod conjures up a freak thunderstorm inside the classroom.
Only, Jarrod doesn't believe in the paranormal and has no idea his magic is behind the strange incidents that plague him. He finds Kate's convictions about magic especially frustrating because of the magnetic attraction between them. Why can't he fall for a normal girl?
But, eventually, not even Jarrod can dismiss his gift...or the mounting danger it's causing. To save their future, Jarrod and Kate embark on an incredible journey to the past where they must foil the curse that has plagued Jarrod's family for centuries. Can these fledgling witches summon the strength to emerge victorious?
