'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a novelization anthology of the [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer novels|''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'' novels]] series. Written by [[Yvonne Navarro]], it was originally published on December 1, [[1999]] by [[Pocket Books]].

==Synopsis==
When [[Buffy Summers|Buffy]] the [[Slayer|Vampire Slayer]] arrived in [[Sunnydale]], she befriended a bookish, insecure girl named [[Willow Rosenberg|Willow]]. As a [[Scooby Gang|Slayerette]], Will uses her computer prowess for good, hacking into electronic government files and researching obscure rituals on the Web. But Willow's love life is severely lacking, consisting of an unfulfilled crush on her friend [[Alexander Harris|Xander]] and a short-lived fling with a deadly [[demon]] she met over the Internet.

Through her often life-threatening experiences with the Slayer, Willow gains the confidence to just be herself in the peer pressure-filled world of high school. And when her first real boyfriend, [[Daniel Osbourne|Oz]], turns out to be a bit… unusual… in his own right, Willow is just the girl to prove that love really is blind… and a little scary.<ref>[http://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Willow-Files/Yvonne-Navarro/Buffy-the-Vampire-Slayer/9781534421202 "The Willow Files eBook by Yvonne Navarro"].
