The elusive arts trilogy: Whispers of wind and flame

Book one of three.

"When there's a spark, there's a flame in the dark."

For only fire can melt even the purest of gold.
And her flames are those he'd never thought to behold.

Born into a life of pain and loss, she has learned to harden her heart against the world. Her mother's death left a void no one could fill, and her father's coldness forged her into a weapon-sharp, unfeeling, and utterly alone. But when a sudden surge of uncontrollable power shatters her fragile world, she is thrown into a new life she never wanted.

Arachmere Academy of Elusive Arts looms on the horizon, a place of power and prestige, but also one of secrets and lies. It's a school where strength is everything, and trust is a dangerous game. As she navigates this unfamiliar terrain, she is forced to confront the ghosts of her past and the truth of who she is.

Amidst strangers, she will find allies and enemies, truths wrapped in deceit, and friendships forged in fire. But as the shadows of the academy close in, she must decide: will she succumb to the weight of her past, or will she rise to meet the storm of her future?

In a world where betrayal lurks behind every smile and power comes at a cost, she must uncover the truth-or be consumed by it. Her journey has only just begun.
