One of Canada’s most acclaimed horror writers, Gemma Files presents a mosaic of interconnected stories about interconnected families. After fleeing Scotland, five clans settled in the fictional town of Dourvale in northern Ontario. Known as the Five-Family Coven, they are the descendants of witches and witch-children, none of whom were spared persecution in their native country. Now shamans, spellcasters, singers, and thieves, the members of the Devize, Druir, Glouwer, Roke, and Rusk families survive by trading their occult powers and talents.

Connie never dreamed she'd get the chance to follow in the footsteps of her beloved late mother, to become a classical singer. But when she attracts jealous comments from the choir, more attention than she would like from the lead tenor and some unwanted scandalous publicity involving the royal family, she starts to wonder if she is doing the right thing.

Connie Cooper should be basking in newlywed bliss. Instead, she's frantically juggling a long-distance marriage, a busy singing career, and the small matter of her best friends' wedding… which is in three weeks. In France. At Christmas. With absolutely nothing organised. Soon, Connie and her chaotic girl gang (the outrageous Dollz) are descending on a stunning chateau in the south of France to pull off the impossible. But diva demands, unexpected guests and risky secrets could get them all kicked out before the wedding can even take place.

Connie attempts to juggle her romantic break with an over-the-top stag do, an increasingly heavy workload and a case of unrequited love. With Ged and Liam turning into major bridezillas, Connie struggles to keep up with their incessant demands for forced enjoyment and their obsessive hunt for A-list celebrities. When the Dollz ramp up their reckless behaviour, Connie finds herself on the receiving end of some disgruntled local mobsters and an accidental wedding that should never have taken place. Amid the chaos, will her and Matteo’s love ever find a way?

Connie’s singing career isn’t exactly going to plan. On a final warning from her agent and failing every big audition, she’s desperate for a fresh start. So when she lands a last-minute gig in Benidorm (of all places) she jumps at the chance—despite knowing she’s completely out of her depth. Thrown into the wild world of the Dollz, a cocktail-fuelled girl group who love glitter as much as they love drama, Connie struggles to fit in. Then there’s Matteo—the brooding, annoyingly attractive local who seems to be everywhere she turns, throwing her further off course.
