“A high-enjoyable read! Clover hooks you from page one with its wonderful characters and an intriguing world that grabs ahold of you and won’t let go.”

— Stephanie Keyes, award-winning author of The Star Child

"Clover is an exciting action-packed urban fantasy full of both dashing and dastardly Irish Fae. Lucky are the teen readers who get this book!"

— D.G. Driver, author of Cry of the Sea: A Mermaid Novel

So much for the luck of the Irish.

When a handsome leprechaun reveals himself to Clover O’Leary on her eighteenth birthday, she is faced with three hard facts.

One: he is the reason for her remarkably charmed life.

Two: her luck has now taken a turn for the worse.

Three: her name is a curse; a malicious gift from the powerful leprechaun who named her while she was still in the womb.

In order to get her life back and undo the evil spell, she must travel to Ireland to seek the only creature who may be able to help: the Seelie Queen. With her intriguing leprechaun in tow, Clover crosses into the Faerie Realm, where fairies and mythical creatures abound and where finding her luck may ultimately lead to finding her love.

Review:

Clover is a magical revelation ensuring you will be swept away by this layered story of sacrifice, family, and sweet romance. Clover is a book about leprechauns, fairies, and luck. I love the use of luck and leprechauns in the book, as it is not something I have seen much of before. It’s the perfect read for St. Patrick’s Day if you celebrate it. I felt this was a quick read, and it kept me on the edge of my seat to see what would happen next. Clover had good luck her entire life and then suddenly had none, which is a huge change to deal with. Then, she discovered that it was her dad’s fault for making a horrible deal in a poker game. What a blow. I loved all the characters, the setting, and the bitterness of the fae world. Clover is a Debut novel and the first in the two-book series. I checked, and the author has not released anything else I could see, but I hope she does more cause I thoroughly enjoyed Clover and will check out book two.

Clover is her debut novel.
