What if your phone could deliver the perfect partner-at the tap of a heart-shaped icon?
In Cracked! A Magic iPhone Story, Morena, a statistician pushing forty and reeling from heartbreak, is gifted a mysterious iPhone by her ex. This isn't just any device: its sole app promises to conjure up the ideal mate, tailored to her every whim. But as a parade of oddball suitors and disastrous dates invades her Seattle life, Morena finds herself caught between the seductive pull of algorithmic romance and the messy, magical reality of true connection. With her fiercely loyal roommate Suzyn and the enigmatic Magic Guy-a centuries-old elf hiding in plain sight-Morena navigates the chaos of modern love, geeky storygames, and the dark allure of technology that promises everything but costs more than she ever imagined. Wickedly funny, heartfelt, and brimming with geek-culture charm, Cracked! A Magic iPhone Story is a sharp, contemporary fairy tale about friendship, addiction, and the courage to choose real love over easy answers. Will Morena find what she's truly searching for, or will the magic phone crack her world for good? Unlock the story that proves friendship is the most powerful magic of all. Winner of a Cygnus Award from Chanticleer, 2015.Author Biography
