When his former life catches up with him, Traveler has to leave Lightning behind, and they might never find each other again. Can Lightning get past his natural suspicion and the wounds of his childhood to make a life with Traveler? Will Traveler’s past mistakes cost them both their chance at happiness and bring more than one curse down upon their heads? Magic, mayhem and true love reign in this gypsy tale!
