"Do you realize who you're talking about? That girl went through hell and back, literally, and she's alive to tell the tale. She may not remember it, but she will, eventually. She's not as fragile as you think. She is actually the strongest woman I've ever met. That's saying a lot, coming from me."

When Rose Aleksandrov stepped foot into the tiny town of Riverside, Maine, she was not expecting her life to turn completely upside down. With an army full of beings she never knew existed trying their hardest to end her life, Rose is forced to come to terms with who, and what, she is. But what happens when the only people she trusts enough to give her the answers, may be the ones telling her the biggest lies? And what about the dark attraction she can't ignore to the man who seems to despise her very existence? Rose is bound and determined to uncover the truth, but can she do it in time? Or will those answers cost her her life?
In a world divided between sky and earth, magic flows where it is permitted-and nowhere else. Above, floating cities gleam with wealth and power, their citizens living lives of ease under watchful eyes. Below, the forested villages cling to the land, unaware of the forces shaping their fates.
Seventeen-year-old Evelyn knows only the quiet rhythm of her village and the forge where she trains alongside her father. But when a mysterious crash shatters the forest's calm, she discovers something that should not exist-a remnant of a power long thought lost.
Drawn into a world of fire, secrets, and forces beyond imagination, Evelyn finds herself at the edge of a conflict that could change everything. A wounded stranger appears, carrying a secret that could either save them all-or destroy everything she has ever known.
As the forest trembles and shadows rise, the choices she makes could ignite a war-or save a world on the brink of ruin.
