But when she fails to grow out of her fear, she finds herself in Chanticleer, a land of mysterious beauty. She, like all the other students gathered there, is forced to face her pesky childhood fears in a series of frightful challenges Those who succeed will reap the benefits of their courage but those who can't--or won't--will be subject to a hideous fate. Macy vows to do everything she can to get out of Chanticleer quickly. Yet when she falls for Sebastian, a fellow student, she suddenly changes her mind. For to wake up from Chanticleer is to forget everyone there and forgetting Sebastian is the last thing she ever wants to do. But no one in Chanticleer is whom they seem to be, and Macy soon discovers that her fairy-tale ending will come at a terrible price, a price she may be too afraid to pay.
