About Girl of Ill Omens

Born with a lethal jinx that strikes anyone she curses with immediate catastrophe, outcast country girl Penny Wilder never expected her bizarre supernatural curse would make her the most dangerous maid in the imperial royal palace. Desperate to afford life-saving medicine for her ailing sister, Penny signs away her freedom to serve in the imperial court. Her first day turns chaotic when she accidentally summons lightning upon a cruel head housekeeper. Meanwhile, Crown Prince Adrian Sterling has hit rock bottom: crippled by poison, stripped of his royal title, and locked away in bitter defiance. When the desperate king offers a massive bounty to anyone who can force the stubborn prince to take his cure, Penny takes the gamble. Armed with razor-sharp wit and an uncontrollable crow mouth, Penny shocks the brooding heir into submission. What begins as a battle of egos quickly sparks an unbreakable alliance. Together, the disgraced prince and the supposedly unlucky maiden outwit scheming consorts, crush traitorous plots, open desert trade routes, and reclaim the stolen throne. Transforming ill omens into ultimate triumph, Penny proves that even the worst luck can pave the path to royal glory and true love.
