In a time of myth and magic, nine ancient mighty kingdoms are at war from as far as the inscriptions go back and stories are told. Leila is an orphan living in a magical world where she lives every day like it's her last. Leila has a past shadowed by misfortune, fires, unsavoury characters, evil sorcerers, dark magical creatures and all. Over the years she learns how to use all sorts of weapons; the once sweet little girl had grown up to be a dangerous woman. Things change drastically on Leilas sixteenth birthday and she is forced to serve the Golden Year. The Golden Year allows civilians the chance to escape the life laid out for them since birth. She has to leave what little she had behind in search of a new life. It means turning her back on her secret love, Theo, the self-crowned king of thieves. Leila begins to doubt her original assumptions about the royal family when she gets to know Prince Leonardo. However, the return of the dark lord could mean the end of everything she holds dear. She is put into the heart of a war between kingdoms at odds. She soon discovers her magical gifts and her destiny as the chosen one. She never expects to learn a new truth about her parents and herself. In this sweeping fantasy about Leila's journey to fulfil her destiny and all the monsters that stand in her way, only one monster does not have fangs or claws but he does have a powerful hold on her heart. Danger and betrayal, forbidden love and lust, dark secrets and enchantments threaten Leila's life and it could lead to her ultimate destruction.

Her destiny is her greatest fear. Seventeen-year-old Halen Windspeare will do anything to extinguish the flames that spark beneath her fingertips. But, returning to the place where she witnessed her father drown forces the fire to ignite. When she encounters a breathtaking stranger from the ocean depths, Halen discovers an underwater world where dark truths about her past surface. Her uncontrolled powers make her both a weapon and a target. Thrust into Dax's dangerous realm, Halen must learn to control the magick burning within her. But with a vindictive demon hunting her and allies keeping deadly secrets, she must navigate a web of lies to master powers that could either save everyone she loves-or destroy them all.
