This is a short novella and was perfect rainy day reading for me. Just the sort of lovely story to relax with. Nola is a top model. She has everything going for her and is thought to be one a very beautiful woman. However, on a flight back from Barbados, Nola's life is about to take on a staggering transformation thanks to a Mambo or a voodoo priestess.Can Nola really break the curse and get her life back on track? There's everything at stake here, including a top modelling job. But, as Nola soon begins to realise, she has forgotten about what the really important things in life are and what her humble beginnings were.  Meeting Louis soon changes her thinking, but is it enough to fix her life in time?This was such a fun read but with a serious message throughout. Nola's lessons throughout the book are lessons for the reader too. The story has just the right sprinkling of romance and humour that doesn't detract from the underlying message. Well done to Janice Horton for a lovely story.
