Unfortunately for her, a dark and raucous force is at work – and it will take everything she has to harness her true powers and confront it. Even if that means learning to trust those around her…including Prince Dayen of the Fae Realm. --- ★The Brunswick Academy for Gifted Girls: There are only 5 girls graduating this year…students who have been more carefully selected and trained than they realize. The supernatural forces of the world have been thrown out of balance and the Headmistress of the Academy has finally figured out why. Five missing elements need to be reclaimed, and she has trained the perfect five students to do it. First up: Cara – Warrior Fae and badass extraordinaire. There is a wooden elemental totem out in the world, and she needs to find it.
