Aurora never wanted magic. She just wanted to belong.
When mysterious earth magic erupts from forest guardian Aurora at the worst possible moment, she's thrust into the Academy of Magic-a cutthroat institution where winged fae rule and bloodlines matter more than talent.
But Aurora's magic is different. Unstable. And someone powerful wants to control it.
Struggling with hostile classmates and impossible lessons, Aurora catches the attention of her influential mentor Acantha, who offers to unlock Aurora's true potential. The price seems too good to be true-because it is.
Now Aurora must choose: master her magic or become its victim.
With dangerous secrets lurking behind academy walls and her childhood crush Myron by her side, Aurora must embrace the very magic she feared... before it destroys everyone she loves.
