Hybris was named for the greek goddess of rebellion and insolence; as such, when she graduates high school, she leaves as a highly intelligent reject with a scholarship to an ivy league college and the disapproval of her parents and spoiled younger sister. The story begins with her graduation day, when she bids goodbye to everything she knows in favor of the harsh, adult world that awaits her beyond the prison she's been at for so long. 

The only problem is this creepy house in the woods that she stumbles across when she leaves graduation early, diploma secured and her worries expounding. When the darkness settles in and she has no choice but to stay there to weather out the night, she wonders what might be lurking in the house: the nothingness of a century passed or something else...?

Dive into the world of love and magic, any way you like to read. *** Sometimes love is the strongest magic of all *** Nineteen-year-old Rhia Greenbrook has lived in the sleepy town of Oakriver in a house with three generations of witches her entire life. Rhia draws her magic from the earth and likes to spend her time amongst plants and nature. Her practice is gentle, sacred, and-per her family's tradition-secret. New-to-town witch Valerie Morgan is looking for answers about her mother's disappearance from Oakriver seventeen years ago. Without her mother's guidance, Valerie has cultivated her fire magic on her own and she makes no effort to keep her powers hidden. Although Rhia is immediately annoyed by Valerie's blatant use of magic, she can't deny the instant magnetism between them. But amidst their magical connection, a dark presence looms over Oakriver. Unsettling visions from Rhia's grandmother and dangerous sleepwalking episodes throw into question Valerie's past and what role her presence plays in the strange happenings. And as Valerie gets tangled up further into the darkness, it's up to Rhia to tap into the full potential of her power in order to save the town she loves and the girl she's fallen for.
