Cursed to the Bone

Vera Fiore is cursed. With bones like glass, she has spent her life chasing freedom-freedom from her fragile bones, freedom to study magic, and freedom to pursue the adventure. When she begins her studies at Sage University, she believes she has finally found it. Instead, the school's ancient wards become her cage.

After a trusted professor violently attacks Vera-revealed to be possessed by an unknown force-the professor's death marks the beginning of a series of escalating murder attempts. When the headmistress is killed, it becomes impossible to deny the truth: Vera isn't just in the way. She's the target. Someone within Sage University is trying to eliminate her, while someone far older and more powerful lurks beyond the school's barriers, seeking to possess her body for a purpose she doesn't yet understand.

Unable to leave the campus without surrendering the only protection keeping her alive, Vera is forced to rely on Luciano Castillo, a vampire professor whose motives are as inscrutable as his past. Luciano claims he is the only one who can help her avoid possession and survive long enough to uncover the truth. But his knowledge places him at the center of the mystery, where every secret carries teeth and trust may be the most dangerous gamble of all.

Trapped between two equally terrible fates, Vera must unravel the truth behind these attacks while forging alliances, dodging sinister plots, and learning to embrace the intuitive magic she has always kept at arm's length.
