POISON, by Bridget ZInn

The story: Master Potion-maker Kyra is on the run. She's just tried to kill princess Ariana (who also happens to be her best friend)--but somehow her usually perfect aim failed, and she missed. Now, along with trying to evade the King's guards, she's also got to keep a hand on her tracking pig, keep the local witches and criminals from guessing her true powers, and--most annoying of all--try to keep one step ahead of Fred, the handsomest guy (and best cook) she's met in a long time. Can she do it? One wrong step would be her last!

June Cleaver's rating: Language PG; Nudity, PG; Sexual Content PG; Violence PG, Substance Use PG; magic & the occult PG-13; GLBT content G; Overall rating PG (surprise!).

Liz's comments: I thought this was a charming story, and was sad to find out that author Bridget Zinn died very young just after it was published. There were several anachronisms that kept jerking me back to the present, but those aside, I think MS girls wouldn't be all that picky about those kinds of things and would really like Kyra's character a lot.
