About You A Novel

Wallis Kinney

A cursed woman has one last chance to enjoy the holiday season in this warm and wintry Yule tale from internationally bestselling author Wallis Kinney, perfect for fans of Stacy Sivinski and Lucy Jane Wood. Sophie Burns' time is almost up. Ever since her great-grandmother was abandoned on the steps of an old church as an infant, no one in the Burns' family has lived past the age of 28. With her final birthday just a few weeks ahead of her, Sophie decides to spend one last Yule in her hometown, where her great uncle has invited her to stay with him in his charming (and slightly sentient) Victorian home. Sophie's plans are thrown for a loop when she meets Ash, the enigmatic and flirtatious owner of the local bookstore. Though her uncle has warned her to stay away from him, Sophie sees no reason to be cautious when she'll be dead in a few weeks. Their attraction is undeniable, but there's something different about Ash. As they team up to cross every item off her childhood bucket list, Sophie can't help developing feelings for him, and when a risky opportunity to end her curse for good arises, Sophie must ask herself a perilous question: how can she face the possibility of living when she has only ever been prepared to die? About You is a love letter to the coldest months of the year and to choosing the life you want against all odds.
