THE FUSE

For centuries, the Hua women held sway over the courts of emperors and the boardrooms of billionaires…and in every fifth generation, an eldest daughter is born with the rarest gift of all: the ability to summon true love. As a long-awaited fifth daughter, Lucy was supposed to be the miracle her exacting mother had been waiting for. But her magic failed and she fled. When a death in the family brings her home, she must confront the tangled threads of love, power, and identity...and ask herself whether her magic was ever truly gone, or waiting for her to decide what it means to be a daughter of the House of Hua.
