In warring magical kingdoms in New York City, two cursed teens have only a handful of stolen moments at dawn and dusk to find a way to save both themselves and their kingdoms in this romantic YA fantasy from New York Times-bestselling author Adriana Mather.

Once upon a time... no, scratch that. Once upon right now, a rebellious prince and an ambitious apprentice from rival kingdoms are each cursed to sleep while the other is awake. Ryder’s only awake at night, while Sadie falls asleep precisely at sunset. No. Matter. What.

But Ryder and Sadie have never met. They live on opposite sides of Manhattan, separated by an impassable magical wall that runs along 34th St. The Uptowners and the Downtowners have hated each other as long as anyone can remember, and the wall between them is the only thing keeping the peace. Until one day, in the fleeting moments of dusk, when Ryder crosses the wall and runs right into Sadie.

When Sadie collapses, Ryder realizes that this girl has the same curse he's been suffering under his entire life and she must be the key to breaking it. Yet, everyone seems to be conspiring to keep them apart! As the two work together and secrets come to light, they begin to realize that both they and their kingdoms have more in common than anyone ever imagined.
