The Zodiac Exchange

By Joshua Shackles

They wished the other could live their life for one day. The ancient pendant took them literally.

Museum scholar Evie Harper plans everything. Personal trainer Sebastian Langley survives on charm, instinct, and promises he means to keep. They have been best friends long enough to know exactly where the other is failing-and to say so during the argument that changes both their lives.

The next morning, Evie wakes in Sebastian's body. Sebastian wakes in hers.

Their birthday gift, a mysterious Aries pendant, will not reverse the exchange. Instead, a new mark appears each day while memories and reflexes begin bleeding across the boundary between them. To protect their jobs, families, relationships, and private selves, Evie and Sebastian must live by rules neither of them can afford to break.

Then an influential antiquities patron reveals that Aries is only one piece of an older design. He has spent lifetimes escaping age by stealing other bodies-and their exchange has opened the passage he needs for his next one.

With twelve days running out, Evie and Sebastian must expose the conspiracy behind the relics and find their way home before one identity consumes the other. But living each other's lives has uncovered a truth neither expected: the person who understands them best may also be the person they have been afraid to choose.

The Zodiac Exchange is an adult contemporary fantasy of stolen identities, occult artifacts, best-friend banter, and a slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance.
