Three hundred years ago, the people of Zodiac Cove gave up their magic to stop a jealous god’s curse from sinking their island into the sea. When an earthquake cracks open the old seal, magic floods back to the island and the curse wakes up with it. Twelve descendants of the zodiac signs discover they have powers, and the only way to save Zodiac Cove is for all of them to work together before the island is swallowed by the ocean.
Each book follows a new pair of characters with opposing zodiac signs as they figure out their abilities, face the growing threat, and fall for each other. The series starts with A Touch Magical, where the earthquake first hits and the magic returns, and builds through five more installments as the curse grows stronger, trapping residents on the island and blocking out the sun. By the final book, A Touch Spellbound, the full group of twelve must come together for a last stand against the force trying to destroy their home.
Hartl blends small-town romance with paranormal stakes, giving each couple their own story while keeping the larger plot moving. The zodiac element adds personality to the magic system, tying each character’s powers to their astrological sign. Readers who enjoy steamy romance mixed with a fantasy threat and a tight-knit community setting will find a lot to like in this series.
