Between fire and forest, nothing should burn yet something does. Zahira was born in the Fire Clan, heir to a world where loyalty is paid in blood and freedom is dangerous. Neteyam comes from another people, another destiny. When their paths cross, Zahira discovers what she was never allowed to imagine : choice, doubt, freedom. But loving the enemy, dreaming of another world, is to betray everything she has ever known. Between traditions, wars, and secrets, their forbidden bond could change the balance of Pandora or reduce it to ashes. When duty clashes with the desire for freedom, some flames cannot be put out.

The Pogues had one rule - no Pogue-on-Pogue macking - which people start to test the limits of. Olivia Thornton wasn't the first, nor was she the last to do so. During her treasure hunt with her friends she finds herself drawn to the one boy in the group who was the last person she'd call for help.
