Giselle Bowman never thought she'd be descended from a Greek god...or a monster. Klutzes and small-town girls don't get taken to Olympian Academy to learn to hone their godlike powers. But when Giselle accidentally summons a void that almost eats her friend, it's done. Except she doesn't get sorted into Olympian, but to Cursed Academy, where the descendants of dark gods and the monsters from Greek mythology learn to serve their betters. And that's just the start. Giselle 1.) has a new type of magic never seen before and 2.) gets to deal with an epic jerk, Ronin, from Olympian Academy next door. He's a descendant of Zeus, totally hot, and very out of her league. Giselle quickly learns her void-summoning powers aren't normal and that an unknown enemy—perhaps someone in Cursed Academy already—seeks to use her for a plan so vile, it threatens the gods and the modern world. With nowhere else to turn, Giselle must seek help from Ronin, who might have a clue on what she is. If only he'd stop making fun of her every time she trips over her shoelaces. Is Giselle ready to learn the terrifying truth about herself and her powers? Cursed Academy is a teen academy romance series based on the dark side of Greek mythology.
