Impossible by Nancy Werlin

Impossible
By Nancy Werlin
There are three tasks that the daughters of Fenella must complete in order to break their curse: make a sweater without seams or needlework; plow an acre of land between salt water and sea strand with a goat’s horn; and sow the land with one grain of corn. Each generation has failed, and now it is Lucy’s turn to try, or succumb to the madness that has taken her family’s minds.
Lucy Scarborough has everything going for her, despite a crazy mother who abandoned her the day she was born. Her best friend Zach is coming back from college, she has a prom date and possible boyfriend, and loving foster parents. But everything changes when she finds herself pregnant at seventeen and realizes she must do the impossible tasks given to her to save not only herself, but her child from eternal misery.
Impossible by Nancy Werlin is a beautiful novel that shows how strong love and family can be, even when being confronted by an ancient foe. Lucy, Zach and her step-parents try to prevent the inevitable to save the next generations of Scarboroughs from going insane and becoming a slave to evil.
