In a world shaped by ancient magic, Ara was born with a connection unlike any other. Set in 5000 BCE, she and her twin sister, Nira, live in a small, tight-knit tribe. While Nira is adored, basking in the tribe's love and attention, Ara stands in her shadow-quiet, reserved, and attuned to a force far older than anyone can comprehend.

What begins as a faint whisper from the earth soon grows into an unstoppable power within Ara, a magic both sacred and dangerous. As her bond with the earth deepens, Ara finds herself isolated, her connection to her sister fraying and her relationship with Kahi, her closest friend, crumbling under the weight of secrets. Love, jealousy, and fear collide as Ara wrestles with a power she never asked for but cannot deny.

Chosen by the ancient forces of the earth, Ara is bound to a destiny that will stretch beyond her first life. Her tragic fate will set in motion a journey that transcends time, as she is reborn again and again, destined to live out her soul's path through different eras and worlds.

Can Ara learn to control the magic within her before it consumes her entirely, or will her power lead her down a path of destruction? What happens when, centuries later, she is reborn into the future, bound once again by time-and by the magic that refuses to let her go?

At 37, Cambry Keller has spent her entire life feeling as if something was just a bit... off. Her job, her relationships, her home-all perfectly ordinary, yet there was always a nagging feeling deep within her that she was meant for something more, something extraordinary. But nothing ever changed, and soon, she resigned herself to the quiet monotony of her life. Until the fall after she turned 37. In the span of a single autumn, everything Cambry thought she knew about herself-and the world around her-was turned upside down. Strange dreams begin to haunt her nights, filled with forgotten symbols and places she's never been, yet feels intimately familiar.

The dormant magic within her awakens, and Emily finds herself thrust into a world of enchantment, danger, and ancient forces vying for control.
