"Hey piñata, it's my birthday, so I get a wish, and I want you to come to life." Nothing happens. Because, of course, nothing happens. "Fine. Be that way. It would be cool to have a little piñata friend every year for my birthday, though." Reminiscing over how fun birthdays used to be, Danelle still hopes something exciting could happen for her special day, despite being all grown up. Stella needs to find out what kind of piñata she is, even if that means facing one of her biggest fears—being broken. Together, they find out that sometimes people get their birthday wishes granted in unexpected ways. Smashed is book 12 in the Kyleverse, a series of sentient object romance short stories.
