Publisher's Synopsis
Art magic, sweet romance, and fast-paced adventure combine in this YA fantasy reimagining of Robin Hood!
Briar is a curse painter who can wreak havoc with the flick of a paintbrush, but she doesn't want to hurt people anymore. She has fled her family's deadly curse business to start a new life peddling nonlethal jinxes and petty revenge. Her destructive powers catch the eye of a charismatic young thief called Archer, who hires her to help him save a kidnapped friend from a ruthless baron. Briar joins Archer's ragtag outlaw band, thinking it's her chance to make amends for her crimes. But the family business won't let her go so easily. When her violent past jeopardizes Archer's rescue mission, Briar must confront the dark arts she left behind-and decide what she's willing to destroy in order to be good. "Engaging, witty, and full of action, Curse Painter is a phenomenally enjoyable book." - Sophia Lee Delorey
