The romance, the adventure, and the magic all culminate in this final book in the Protectors series.

When Grace escaped the castle and killed one of the most powerful Protectors, she knew a war was coming. She had no idea others wouldn't want her to be a part of it. Her parents are trying to protect her, the elders refuse to trust her with her family so close, and some even blame her for the prince's actions. Even as her powers evolve and as Sierra manifests her magic for the first time, the two of them are cast out of the fight.

Grace knows the answers about their new magic lies in the ancient texts, but they were hidden by the elders. A desperate effort to find them is foiled by another looking for the texts–Kilar. As he turns ally after ally against the Avialies in his quest to gain magic for himself, Grace and her friends are forced to find him to thwart his plans. If Kilar finds what he's looking for, he could be too powerful to stop. Grace, Dar, and Sierra face their biggest foe yet–and they may lose too much in the battle to persevere.
