Vie has spent her life being feared for the color of her hair, the strange violet of her eyes, and the amulet her dying mother begged her never to remove. When an army burns its way toward her quiet village, hunting a girl with her exact description, every lie her mother told her begins to unravel.
Rewyn was raised to be a weapon for the same dark power that wants Vie captured. Cold, dangerous, and trained to obey, he should have taken the amulet and delivered her to the Master. Instead, one impossible choice places him beside the girl he was sent to betray.
As Vie, Rewyn, and their uneasy companions follow the scattered pages of her mother's hidden journal, they uncover buried magic, living shadows, poisoned waters, and the truth of four ancient phoenixes reborn into human lives. The closer Vie comes to the answers, the closer the Master comes to finding her.
And somewhere between survival and betrayal, the boy who was never meant to feel begins to care for the girl who was never supposed to know what she is.
