When her fiancé mysteriously abandons her the night before their wedding, Manda Love learns it may be the result of a curse that came about before she was even born. It all began when Manda’s mother was a young woman living in the West Indies, and she stole the man that a powerful Obeah woman’s daughter was supposed to marry. The woman put a curse on her, declaring that she would have two daughters - the one in her belly would chase riches and die before she reaches 35; while the second daughter would live a miserable life and die alone. Manda’s parents moved away to England where she and her sister, Sierra, were born.
Now Manda is 33 and Sierra’s 35th birthday is fast approaching, and their lives seem to be playing out according to the curse. Manda decides to leave London and go to New York City where Sierra lives, on a mission to save them both from the curse that is supposed to end her sister’s life before her birthday. But will she be able to stop the dark destiny that threatens to destroy them?
This book is about breaking the limitations set on us by family legacies, and taking responsibility for our own destiny. It asks the question about whether curses are just self-fulfilling prophesies, or if they are real. Do curses have power outside of us, or do they only have the power we give them?
