Luck is its own kind of magic, in this first book in an electrifying new contemporary fantasy series from the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Hollows novels.Petra Grady has known since adolescence that she has no talent for magic - and that's never going to change. But as a sweeper first-class, she's parlayed her rare ability to handle dross - the damaging, magical waste generated by her more talented kin's spellwork - into a decent life working at the mages' university.Except Grady's relatively predictable life is about to be upended. When the oblivious, sexy, and oh-so-out-of-reach Benedict Strom needs someone with her abilities for a research project studying dross and how to render it harmless, she's stuck working on his team - whether she wants to or not.
