After Kelsey leaves India and Ren, broken hearted, to Oregon, she starts college and tries to date other guys. No one can compare, but she is trying when Ren shows up.
Li and Ren have a dating"competition" to see who can 'win' her. Soon after their reconciliation, Lokesh attacks and captures Ren. Kelsey and Kishan escape back to India and try to find Ren.
When they cannot find Ren, they decide to continue to work on breaking the curse. Kishan takes Ren's place in more exciting adventures that once again go from the temple of Durga to the Dalai Lama.
This time they search out the Divine Scarf in Shangri-La. It proves to be a very different adventure and Kelsey learns Kishan has also fallen in love with her.
In the end, they are able to use the recovered gifts to help find and free Ren from Lokesh, but there is something amiss. Amnesia? Post- traumatic torture syndrome? This leads into books 3 and 4, hopefully, coming soon!
