Navigating the dating waters is complicated under the best of circumstances. After all, not every relationship is meant to last a lifetime, which means splitting up is in the cards, and getting over a breakup can be complicated for anyone.

Avoiding hurt feelings.

Separating your stuff.

Trying to avoid the other one at all costs?

For Hannah, a mage living in Philadelphia, she is facing the challenge of having a gaslighting human ex-girlfriend, Stacy, while falling for Aaron, an immortal man. With help from her family, both in the city and across the country, Hannah works to get over the complicated relationship and complex breakup with her ex.

Meanwhile, Stacy is struggling to come to terms with the breakup, the first time someone dumped her before she could dump them. When attempting to make sense of her newly single situation, Stacy gets carried away down the rabbit hole of conspiracies. Hannah, on the other hand, is moving on and at quite the pace, when she falls for Aaron faster than she thinks she should. Hannah's parents and an ancient library in Morocco may hold some details on the new relationship, at least for this supernatural couple. And what does any of this have to do with the Great Chicago Fire?

Having magical powers doesn't seem to be doing anyone any favors in this debut novel.
