As Bad Luck Would Have It

When Orla is literally pushed down a well on her wedding day, she expects disaster—but instead finds Mallory, a trickster fae who literally is bad luck itself, waiting at the bottom. He's desperate to win a wager against his awful brother by collecting a hundred unlucky years by month's end, and Orla is somehow the unluckiest person he's ever met, so they strike a deliciously devious bargain: he'll help her uncover who pushed her, and she'll rack up as much misfortune as possible in return. As they navigate high-society intrigue and increasingly close calls together, the real question becomes whether falling for the embodiment of bad luck might actually be the luckiest thing either of them could do. It's a gorgeously dark, witty fantasy romance that pairs enemies-to-lovers chemistry with a mystery that'll keep you guessing, all wrapped in Gillig's signature enchanting prose.
