After a year of hiding in a little farmhouse in the country with her brother and his family, two surprise visitors with shocking news could change the course of her life forever. And that news just might have something to do with the mysterious fire magic burning through her veins.

When the time comes to select her consort through the age-old contest, Lydia finds herself suffocating in a world of masks and manners.
