To Forge a Fate

By Bella-Lucia Baker

Twelve-year-old Elena Cruz thought the worst part of her life was bouncing between foster homes-until a cruise-ship explosion leaves her the sole survivor. But the attack wasn't random. The people responsible weren't human. And neither is she.

Elena is fae-born with a powerful, dormant Blessing and hidden among humans for her protection. Now cloaked assassins are hunting her, a mysterious boy is keeping dangerous secrets, and a hidden fae world filled with portals, Tribes, ancient laws, and breathtaking magic is awakening around her.

Taken in by a fae guardian who may know more than he's saying, Elena must uncover who wants her dead and why the Ritual she was never able to complete could change everything. But the deeper she goes, the more she realizes:

She wasn't just hidden-she was being hunted.

Perfect for readers who love Keeper of the Lost Cities, Percy Jackson, and Amari and the Night Brothers, To Forge a Fate blends mystery, found family, and heart-pounding magic into a story where identity is power...and fate is never set in stone.
