Romeo and Juliet meets One Hundred Years of Solitude in
Emily Henry's brilliant follow-up to The Love That Split
the World, about the daughter and son of two long-feuding
families who fall in love while trying to uncover the
truth about the strange magic and harrowing curse that
has plagued their bloodlines for generations.
In their hometown of Five Fingers, Michigan, the
O'Donnells and the Angerts have mythic legacies. But for
all the tall tales they weave, both founding families are
tight-lipped about what caused the century-old rift
between them, except to say it began with a cherry tree.
Eighteen-year-old Jack “June” O’Donnell doesn't need a
better reason than that. She's an O'Donnell to her core,
just like her late father was, and O'Donnells stay away
from Angerts. Period.
But when Saul Angert, the son of June's father's mortal
enemy, returns to town after three mysterious years away,
June can't seem to avoid him. Soon the unthinkable
happens: She finds she doesn't exactly hate the gruff,
sarcastic boy she was born to loathe.
Saul’s arrival sparks a chain reaction, and as the magic,
ghosts, and coywolves of Five Fingers conspire to reveal
the truth about the dark moment that started the feud,
June must question everything she knows about her family
and the father she adored. And she must decide whether
it's finally time for her—and all of the O'Donnells
before her—to let go.
