Impossible

Impossible – by Nancy Werlin

Lucy has nine months to break an ancient curse in order to save both herself and her unborn daughter.
Inspired by the ballad "Scarborough Fair," this riveting novel combines suspense, fantasy, and romance for an intensely page-turning and masterfully original tale.

Lucy is seventeen when she discovers that the women of her family have been cursed through the generations, forced to attempt three seemingly impossible tasks or to fall into madness upon their child's birth. But Lucy is the first girl who won't be alone as she tackles the list. She has her fiercely protective foster parents and her childhood friend Zach beside her. Do they have love and strength enough to overcome an age-old evil?

A clever story that has Lucy trying to complete the tasks in the ballad "Scarborough Fair” in order to break the age old curse.

I haven't heard of Impossible. Sounds like it has potential.

So far I've been intrigued at your choices, so I'm ordering this at the library. I suppose I should walk and kill two birds with one stone and walk some of those 100 miles we're doing.here's mine.

I thought this one sounded good when I ordered it for the library - I didn't know about the Scarborough Fair angle, that's cool. Guess I've got another one for the TBR list - I've enjoyed some of her other books.
