When grief cracks her open, magic answers.
After the sudden death of her grandmother, Mari Pollard is torn from her quiet life and thrust into the glittering, ruthless world of New York City's elite. Surrounded by wealth, secrets, and expectations she never asked for, Mari begins to feel something awakening beneath her skin, ancient, dangerous... and tied to her blood.
As forbidden power stirs, Mari is pulled into a hidden war between the Bloodwrights, wielders of perilous blood magic, and the Stonebound, sworn guardians of the mortal world. Her only guide is Alaric Gaines, the enigmatic boy sworn to train and protect her, even as he becomes the one person she's not sure she can trust.
Bound by grief, destiny, and a connection older than memory itself, Mari must navigate dark academia halls, morally gray alliances, and a slow-burning attraction that could either save her... or destroy everything.
Because in a world where loss fuels magic, the greatest danger isn't power.
It's who you become when fate finally calls your name.
