Publisher Description
A modern Faerie Tale of romance and curse-breaking.
Lucy Scarborough is seventeen when she discovers that the women of her family have been cursed through the generations, forced to attempt three seemingly impossible tasks or to fall into madness upon their child's birth. But Lucy is the first girl who won't be alone as she tackles the list. She has her fiercely protective foster parents beside her. And she has Zach, whose strength amazes her more each day. Do they have enough love and resolve to overcome an age-old evil?
Inspired by the ballad "Scarborough Fair," the New York Times bestseller Impossible combines suspense, fantasy, and romance to tell a story of love and family conquering all.
Scarborough Fair Trilogy, Book 1.
Customer Reviews
I don’t know how to express my disgust with this book
This book is very sloppy, and full of deus ex machina. The characters are lackluster and I feel nothing for them. Lots of plot points are moved forward because the author says so, not because the characters would actually do these things. At one point, the main character is supposed to fit a model to make a vest, but for some inconceivable reason, she is disgusted by looking at the model, and has to stand the wet fabric to her shirtless best friend, and this helps move the plot forward. This is just lazy writing at its finest! The ending is a huge let down, and the character actually loses, just for her to “not actually lose” because the plot says so, and because she has plot armor. She literally doesn’t go insane because she tells the villain, “nah bro, I’d rather not”, and he listens!!?!? It’s a lot of filler, and the characters are unlikable, and the writer blames the weird behavior of of the protagonist on the curse and her being pregnant, not her bad writing. I would highly recommend against this book, I can find no redeeming qualities in it. Probably the worst book I actually finished. Read at your own risk, 0/10
