Fate can't be avoided.

Naileen Sharp will never forget her last sunny afternoon in Maine. She has plans—hang out with her best friend, play her favorite mobile game Vortex Beyond, and dodge the popular kids before junior year starts.

But that was before her kidnapping. Before her discovery.

Dragons are real.

Taken to a tropical island southeast of Hawaii, Nail and fifteen other teens are invited to join the Lumen Society as part of their newest class. Receiving her own dragon and a magical gift is everything Nail could ever dream of. All she has to do is stay... and join...

And give the Lumen Society her life.

Beneath the appeal of magic, dragons, new friendships, and a chance at true love lies a host of sinister realities: living with dragons is dangerous, magic always comes with a cost, and fate can't be avoided. When Nail's dragon pairing ceremony goes horribly wrong, she discovers that the cost she'll have to pay is higher than anyone else's.

Can she rise from the ashes and avoid a terrifying fate?

Or will she succumb to the flames?

Get it now!
