And at seventeen, sharing is still their way of life--clothes, double dates, part-time jobs at their mom's cafe, Twin Roses. And then the harbinger of the second half of their curse shows up--the annoying man who caused the bear prince to be cursed in the first place who they must help if their prince--their fated love--is to return to their lives in human form, and they're ecstatic. But the sisters forgot one little detail. There are two of them, and only one Theo. And now only one of the sisters can have the happy ending.
