Living among a people who distrust magic in any form, Kiara has a secret. She can sense magic in others and she's maddeningly sure that she has the potential for magic, too. She just can't quite reach it. Considering the way her people react to magic, that might be just as well.

When her people are threatened, Kiara must make the choice whether to reveal her hidden talents in order to save them. And to trust the one man who can help her learn to use her magic—the same man who betrayed her trust once before.
