Magic is in my blood, but trouble is in my bones.
I thought tracking down an Eternal Flame would be the hardest part of this trip. Turns out, I was wrong. Between a hidden magical village, a smug lake monster, and a high priestess who may or may not hold the key to fixing my mistakes, I’m starting to think I should have stayed in bed.
But I don’t have that luxury. My magic is growing stronger by the day, but it’s volatile, and if I don’t get a grip, I won’t just lose control - I’ll lose everything.
Kaz’s life hangs by a thread, the fire I was born to protect is fading, and now, to top it off, magical objects are vanishing from under our noses. A stolen grimoire, a missing goblet, and a determined old goblin convinced there’s a thief on the loose… and somehow, I’m the one tasked with solving the mystery.
Then there’s Fraser, steadfast, infuriatingly level-headed, and always there when I need him. He’s been by my side through all of this, even when I’ve given him every reason to walk away. But with my past catching up to me and my future in the balance, I can’t afford any distractions - especially not the kind that makes my heart race.
If I don’t prove myself worthy of the Flame, everything I’ve fought for - my family’s legacy, my magic, and possibly my own soul - could be lost forever.
No pressure, right?
