Like his namesake before him, he fell for the girl who saw right through him-and loved her all the more for it. History has a way of repeating itself-another Potter chasing brilliance, another girl who swore she'd never fall for a boy like him... until she did.

He's charming, reckless, and about as subtle as a Bludger. She's brilliant, icy, and completely over it. Too bad they can't stop running into each other-or being assigned detention together. Again.

James Sirius Potter has inherited more than just a famous name-he's got the swagger, the hair, and the maddening talent for getting under people's skin, especially Cassiopeia Malfoy's. Hogwarts sees him as a golden boy: Quidditch captain, prank mastermind, and the unofficial ruler of any room he enters.

Cassie sees something else entirely: an arrogant toerag with too much charm and not nearly enough sense.

Daughter of Draco Malfoy, Cassiopeia has built a pristine reputation of academic brilliance and emotional armor. She's sharp, private, and entirely uninterested in the loud, ridiculous boy who keeps asking her out with increasingly ridiculous flair-from enchanted flower bouquets that explode into glitter to serenading her with a magically off-key lute in the middle of breakfast.
