Official synopsis Publisher
For South Bay High’s bold, beautiful Jayd Jackson, drama has reached record-breaking heights as she finds herself on the defensive at home, work, and school. Maybe it’s time to take her destiny–and her power–into her own hands. . .
Her relationship with now-ex boyfriend Jeremy behind her, Jayd realizes drama is just a never-ending part of daily life. Even so, she’s reached her limit, battling with her new boss, jealousies at school, and tensions at home. To deal with it all, Jayd is ready to give some attention to her legacy as one in a long line of conjure women. But that legacy comes with a line of rivals too–and a couple of them are much too close to home.
First, there’s Misty, Jayd’s enemy #1 and current girlfriend of Jayd’s other ex, KJ. Then there’s Jayd’s neighbor, Esmeralda, a conjurer from Louisiana whose crystal-clear blue eyes are said to be deadly. When Jayd spots Misty’s mom visiting Esmeralda, she knows something’s up and it’s time for Mama to fill her in. Turns out there’s a history between these families, and if Jayd wants to keep the drama under control, she’ll have to learn to use her power like never before–and become the woman she was born to be.
