Product Description

Four teenagers - all born on the same Valentine's Day - begin to disappear. As the bodies mount up, Pearl Linford has to work out what in the supernatural hell is going on, before it happens to her. Finn Blacklin is the boy with whom Pearl shares a birthday, the boy she has known all her life and disliked every second of it, the boy her subconscious has a totally annoying crush on. Finn is also the Valentine- a Seelie fairy changeling swapped for a human boy at birth. The Unseelie have come to kill the Valentine - except they don't know who it is. And now both the Seelie and the Unseelie think Pearl is the Valentine, and if they find out she isn't, she'll disappear too. Pearl must use all her wits to protect herself. Finn must come to terms with his newfound heritage. And then there's the explosive chemistry between them that neither of them know quite what to do about . . .Four teenagers - all born on the same Valentine's Day - begin to disappear.

Jodi is an author and academic from Kiama, a seaside holiday town on the south coast of New South Wales. She is a literary historian, and her PhD was awarded by Macquarie University in 2015. She is currently a lecturer in English at the University of Tasmania. Her academic work focuses on the history of love, sex, women and girls, popular culture and literatures. It means that reading romance novels and watching The Bachelor is technically work for her. You can find Jodi on Twitter at @JodiMcA, where she tweets regularly about her research, her writing, cool things she finds interesting, her hero worship of Kate Bush, and rainbows outside her office window.
