Summary:
Samantha may be falling for the beloved of the princess she is sent to save in this start to a hilarious, adventurous, and sweetly romantic trilogy.
When Samantha is summoned to the royal court of Nova for a secret mission, it’s her chance to put her training to the test: Princess Evelyn has taken an illegal love potion with disastrous effects, and Samantha, like her ancestors before her, is great at mixing potions. She may not be one of the naturally Talented—those who can heal or transform at the wave of their hands—but she is skilled nonetheless, and determined to find an antidote and cure Princess Evelyn. 
The problem? Princess Evelyn took the love potion to make her best friend Zain fall for her—and it’s Zain who Samantha keeps encountering on her hunt for antidote ingredients. As forbidden sparks between them fly, Samantha is forced to wonder: will curing Princess Evelyn doom her own chance at love?



 Here's another thing about me: I have a thing for potions! I used to mix shampoo, liquid soap, and water to create my "potion." Some of our plants died because of that. I also "brewed" some more crazy stuff.

Potions seem magical. They are magical, right?



And I love romance novels. Potions plus romance? Bingo. The cover and the colors- just perfect. I love it.

Madly is the first of The Potion Trilogy, and I want need this one.
