"Water pooled around my feet, rising at an alarming rate. I stared - panicked - at the palms of my hands, willing the water gushing out of them to stop as miraculously as it had begun. I only sneezed!" Jasmine is struggling to control her new powers, causing floods and fires with an accidental flick of her wrist. In a desperate attempt to master at least one aspect of them, she travels to the Brizan Realm, where she comes closer to discovering the truth about her parents than ever before. But not everyone wants their secrets revealed. Alone, powerless and, for the first time in her life, afraid, Roxy has only one thought occupying her mind: escaping Cinaer's clutches before it's too late. Her flight will take her across the ocean, but not in the direction she is expecting. Before she can try and get back to Brae, she needs to rescue herself. Despite being on opposite sides of the world, the girls soon find themselves closer than ever. --- Water is updated on a weekly basis, every Friday (usually first thing in the morning). If you don't want to wait, you can buy the complete book from Amazon, Kobo, Barnes & Nobel or Smashwords. Air - the final novel in the series - is also available from these sellers.
