Jude is determined to fly under the radar. He just wants to draw his comics, host regular D&D night with his friends, work at his parents’ vinyl record store, and escape high school as unscathed as possible. That is, until the night he comes across a mysterious twenty-sided dice and finds himself inexplicably gifted with a bout of supernatural good luck.
Suddenly, everything Jude has ever wanted is within reach. His first art submission is accepted to his favorite fanzine. He helps his friend’s song become a finalist in a songwriting competition. And he’s the 100th caller to a local radio contest, winning him a pair of coveted concert tickets, which he uses to ask out the popular girl he’s been crushing on since elementary school. For a few blissful weeks, he feels invincible.
But when he loses the magic dice at a local music festival, his luck takes a turn for the worse. He struggles to reclaim his good fortune while fighting off long-buried feelings for his best friend―who is definitely not the girl he’s supposed to be in love with. Can Jude risk stepping into the spotlight long enough to win the true girl of his dreams? Or is he doomed to be unlucky in love forever?

Blending futuristic science fiction, fantasy, and classic folklore, speculative young adult fiction gained a fresh dimension through creative retellings of iconic fairy tales. American novelist Marissa Meyer rose to prominence with her debut novel Cinder in 2012, launching The Lunar Chronicles, a bestselling series that reimagined classic fairy-tale heroines within a high-stakes sci-fi universe.
Born on February 19, 1984, in Tacoma, Washington, Meyer developed a passion for storytelling early in childhood, writing plays, poems, and short stories before discovering fan fiction during her teenage years. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in creative writing from Pacific Lutheran University and subsequently worked as a book editor in Seattle. Represented by literary agent Jill Grinberg, she transitioned to full-time writing following the success of The Lunar Chronicles, which encompasses Cinder, Scarlet, and Cress.
In addition to her fiction career, Meyer hosted more than two hundred episodes of the motivational podcast The Happy Writer, interviewing authors, editors, and publishing industry insiders. This initiative inspired her nonfiction craft book The Happy Writer: Get More Ideas, Write More Words, and Find More Joy from First Draft to Publication and Beyond. She lives in Tacoma, Washington, with her husband, Jess, their twin daughters, and three cats.
Meyer's bibliography spans sci-fi fantasy, superhero sagas, graphic novels, and romance, characterized by morally complex characters, secret identities, and intricate world-building. A fan of geek culture, costume events, Sailor Moon, and Firefly, her work frequently explores themes of heroism, redemption, and agency across reinvented classic mythologies.
