Remy and Cam have been best friends forever. On a trip to Japan, Remy finally decides to tell Cam how she feels about him. But before she can, a magical love potion changes their lives forever. The potion has completely removed Cam’s memories of Remy and he no longer knows who she is. To regain his memories, Cam and Remy must travel through Tokyo together to try and reverse the potion’s effects. Will Remy ever be able to tell Cam how she feels? Will Cam regain his memories? The two must race against the clock to save their friendship and maybe something more…?
Our Cursed Love was such a great book! Julie Abe’s writing is so atmospheric and vivid. Readers will feel like they’re also adventuring through a magical Tokyo tinged in pastels, and filled with magical sweet treats. I would love to learn more about the magic system, so I hope Abe returns to this world one day! Remy and Cam have a great relationship, even when Cam’s memories go missing. Abe’s writing is filled with charm and expertly navigates the friends-to-lovers trope. I loved the subtle references to titles like One Last Stop, Made in Korea, and more! Readers who enjoy Your Name, friends-to-lovers, and magic with lots of sweetness will love this book!
