Here’s the set-up:

‘Minerva was the Roman goddess of warriors and wisdom. William McGonagall is celebrated as the worst poet in British history. There was something irresistible to me about his name, and the idea that such a brilliant woman might be a distant relative of the buffoonish McGonagall.’ – J.K. Rowling

Pottermore Presents is a collection of J.K. Rowling’s writing from the Pottermore archives: short reads originally featured on pottermore.com with some exclusive new additions. These eBooks, with writing curated by Pottermore, will take you beyond the Harry Potter stories as J.K. Rowling reveals her inspiration, intricate details of characters’ lives and surprises from the wizarding world.

These stories of heroism, hardship and dangerous hobbies profile two of the Harry Potter stories’ most courageous and iconic characters: Minerva McGonagall and Remus Lupin. J.K. Rowling also gives us a peek behind the closed curtains of Sybill Trelawney’s life, and you’ll encounter the reckless, magical-beast-loving Silvanus Kettleburn along the way.

Here’s the set-up:

Senior Kelsey Quinn had it all. Nordstrom platinum card. New Car. Hot, rich boyfriend. Until her dad lost his job. Flash forward six months. Kelsey and her two sisters are stuck in a rundown farmhouse in the middle of Hickville, Texas. And if feeding chickens, slopping pigs, and mucking stalls isn’t bad enough; they also have to work in their parents’ feed store. Kelsey is determined to find a way to return to the Cinderella life she left in Chicago. But she doesn’t count on meeting the six-foot plus cowboy with the easy attitude and smiling eyes.
Austin McCoy feels sorry for the three greenhorn sisters from Chicago. It must be hell to have been plucked from their private school and shopping malls and plunked in the middle of Hillside, Texas. But the sister who really gets his pulse jumping is the oldest, Kelsey. On the outside she’s all attitude. But when no one is looking and she forgets to be angry, he sees another side of Kelsey Quinn. The one whose eyes light up when she feeds the chickens. Now all he has to do is convince her the guy she really wants is the cowboy working with her, not some rich dude taking her to a ball in Chicago.
