The Cintamani Chronicles

Ill-Fated: Samara Stavros had been taught all her life never to wish. In a moment of weakness she ignored that lesson and made an innocent wish. It came true but suddenly, things began to go wrong in her life. Now, Sam has to find out what's going on before it's too late. Ill-Omened: Gabe Sheenan’s life changed the moment he was assigned to protect Samara Stavros. It was easy for him to see that Sam did not deserve to be struck down by the curse on the Stavros family. His orders have changed, though. He now has to safeguard the Berengar family instead.

Samara Stavros had been taught all her life never to wish. In a moment of weakness she ignored that lesson and made an innocent wish. It came true, but suddenly, things began to go wrong in her life. Now, Sam has to find out what's going on before it's too late. That, along with being a 17-year-old girl did not make Sam's life easy. The betrayal of old friends, the joy of new friends, the mysterious boy with indigo eyes, along with the desire to wish again and again, she's not at all sure what's going on in her life.

Gabe Sheenan’s life changed the moment he was assigned to protect Samara Stavros. It was easy for him to see that Sam was innocent, no one who deserved to be struck down by the curse on the Stavros family. But Gabe is a slave...and he’s been sold. His life has been turned inside out and now, he’s required to protect people he can’t stand. The Cintamani’s plan to take out every Stavros has now extended to reach Gabe’s new owners, who just happen to include Lydia Berengar. Gabe needs to find a way to break the curse, though everything is stacked against him.

Sam Stavros is cursed. Gabe Sheenan is a slave. Are the two doomed, or is there some hope for them? Gabe found out where the Cintamani was hidden, but he was sold before he could save Sam. His hope is dwindling. Sam and her new friends are working hard to find a way to free Gabe. The trouble is, the curse is alive and well. It wants the last of the Stavros line taken out.
