Since her father’s death only months ago, Aulani has been forced to survive on quick fingers, quicker lies, and dreams of a life she was never born to have. None of those dreams being more impossible than Lord Hawthorn—the handsome young nobleman she has admired from afar and could only hope to touch.

Then… she stumbles upon a cursed artifact.

Suddenly, the impossible begins to happen.

Coins appear when she needs them. Locked doors open. Chance encounters become invitations. And before long, the girl who once watched the nobility from the streets finds herself welcomed into the lord’s glittering world after catching the attention of the man she has always wanted.

It seems her luck has finally changed.

But fortune is a fickle thing, and everything comes with a price.
