5 parts Complete First day of college: blow up a lab, awaken ancient magic, try not to fall for a vampire.
●●●
Red Hathaway thought the worst part of her first day of college would be getting lost.
Not blowing up the biochemistry lab.
But the explosion was no accident-and neither is Red's life. For nineteen years, she believed she was just an ordinary girl navigating the chaos of school, bullies, and late-night movie marathons. But everything changes the moment her skin cracks with magic and something otherworldly stirs inside her.
Red isn't human. She never was.
Whisked away under moonlight to Mystic Academy, a hidden university for the supernatural elite, Red is thrown into a world pulsing with ancient magic and dark secrets. Elves with sharp smiles, witches who craft storms, vampires who thirst for more than blood-and werewolves who smell fear. Here, the monsters don't hide under beds. They share your dorm.
As Red struggles to control her powers, she finds herself drawn to a dangerously irresistible presence: a seductive vampire with secrets written in blood and a gaze that sees straight through her soul. He might be the key to unlocking her past-or the reason she doesn't survive her future.
But something darker hunts her. Something hungry. And if Red doesn't uncover who-or what-she really is, this new world might be the death of her.
Magic is calling. So is danger. And Red Hathaway is about to find out what happens when both answer at once.
