Make It Work.

That’s what Cassandra South is trying to do. But making her life work turns out to be harder than she thought. All the same players are back as well as a few Cass has no plans for.

Just as Cass thinks she’s found some even ground, it gets rocky again. Pasts come back to haunt several key characters while others are left dealing with the truth of the present.

Things are changing and not always for the better.

By the end, Cass is left with a big decision, sticking with the past she knows or moving on to the future her mother saw for her and all the complications it entails.

All the while trying to remember that trust is not as hard as it seems.

Cassandra never believed in magic-until she woke up with wings. One moment, she's living her ordinary life in London. The next, she's stranded in a mysterious, ancient realm brimming with danger and beauty beyond imagination. As she grapples with her new reality, one thing becomes clear: there's no way home. Trapped in a world where myths are real and every corner holds a secret, Cassandra discovers she has powers tied to this land-powers she never knew existed. And she's not the only one interested in them. A brooding stranger with dark, haunting eyes seems to know more about her fate than he lets on, and as danger mounts, their connection deepens in ways neither can deny. Now, Cassandra must choose: fight to return to her old life or embrace the magic of this new world-and the powerful destiny waiting for her. But in a realm where nothing is as it seems, the greatest threat may be the one lurking deep within herself. Welcome to a world of forbidden power, treacherous secrets, and a fate that could change everything.
