Potions, Poisons, and Policies (Forrestbriar Academy)

When a rogue love potion turns Forrestbriar Academy's student body into a horde of googly-eyed disasters, Henri knows exactly who to blame — and it certainly isn't the insufferably smug Noah Lawrence. Unfortunately, solving the mystery might require working with him anyway.

Henri has spent three years perfecting the art of academically destroying her greatest rival. Noah has spent the same three years making sure she knows he's better. Now, with their classmates stumbling through the halls in potion-induced romantic stupors and a magical saboteur still on the loose, the two must form the most reluctant alliance in Forrestbriar history. Rules will be bent, potions will be analyzed, and absolutely no one will be catching feelings — especially not Henri.

Courtney Thorne blends the whip-smart banter of romantic comedy with the enchanting tension of romantasy and the pulse-quickening stakes of a magical mystery, creating a story that is equal parts hilarious and heart-pounding. The investigation pulls Henri and Noah closer than either would ever admit to wanting, and the real danger quickly becomes less about the chaos spreading through campus and more about what's quietly brewing between them.

Smart, witty, and genuinely surprising, *Potions, Poisons, and Policies* proves that the most intoxicating magic isn't always the kind you brew in a cauldron. For anyone who has ever wanted their academic rivals to just kiss already — this is the book you've been waiting for.
