About this book

Now she is finally free—with untamed magic sparking in her veins.

They say she is destined to lead an army against corrupted darkness. They say the man she loves is dangerous—that she will never see him again. But Ary is done listening to what they say. She will choose her own destiny. It’s time for her to burn…
