Publisher's Synopsis
In the heart of a bustling city, tucked away in an old, forgotten library, 22-year-old Ivy Turner discovers a hidden world she never knew existed. Ivy has always been drawn to the mysterious, but her mundane life as a bookstore clerk leaves her with little excitement beyond the pages of the books she devours. That is, until the night she stumbles upon a dusty tome in the library's forgotten archives. The book, bound in black leather and inscribed with strange symbols, reveals secrets of an ancient lineage-one that Ivy is unknowingly a part of. She learns that her family's history is entwined with the supernatural, and that she is a descendant of a long line of elemental wielders, capable of controlling fire, water, earth, and air. But with this revelation comes a startling truth: Ivy's power is awakening, and with it, the attention of forces both ancient and malevolent.
As Ivy struggles to come to terms with her newfound abilities, she meets Noah, a mysterious stranger with eyes that seem to see straight through her. Noah is a fire-wielder, part of a secret society called the Keepers, who protect those with elemental powers from dark entities that seek to exploit their abilities. Drawn to Ivy's raw power and the danger it brings, Noah becomes her reluctant guide, teaching her to control her volatile powers while warning her about the dangers lurking in the shadows. The connection between them sparks something deeper than either expected-an undeniable attraction, but also a dangerous tension. As Ivy's powers grow stronger, she uncovers an ancient conspiracy that threatens not only her life but the very fabric of reality. The elemental forces that she once thought were myths are now very real, and they are hunting her.
As Ivy and Noah uncover more about the dark forces targeting her, their growing feelings for each other complicate everything. Ivy must learn to harness her abilities before a sinister faction, led by an immortal being who seeks to consume her power, can claim it for their own. The more she learns about her lineage, the more she realizes that her role in this world is far more significant-and perilous-than she ever imagined. As the final confrontation looms, Ivy must decide whether to trust the man she's falling for, and whether her powers can be used to protect the ones she loves or if they will ultimately consume her. In the battle between light and shadow, the sparks between Ivy and Noah may either save them-or destroy everything they hold dear.
