From bestselling author Tanya Huff, the second in a trilogy about the formidable Gale family, whose power to charm goes far beyond magic. Charlotte Gale has always been unconventional. She can follow a song to slip from one place to another in a moment, and unlike her homebody cousins and order-consumed aunties, she’s at ease wherever she rests her guitar case. She has a good life in Calgary, eating home cooking, playing country music, and giving misfit lessons to her fierce little cousin. But when her wild auntie prods her toward a Celtic music festival on the other side of the continent, Charlie’s more than ready to go—even though trouble will surely follow.

Because some challenges are meant only for the wild...
