Esther McBride is ordinary, so completely and utterly ordinary, in fact, that she sails completely below the radar. Everybody's radar. That is, until her seventeenth birthday, when suddenly everything changes.

Seventeen isn't meant to be a big deal. There is, as a general rule, nothing especially extraordinary about turning seventeen. Unless you happen to be Esther Merilyn McBride, who, from her seventeenth birthday, discovers what it is to have power beyond imagination and an unbelievable heritage which just might save the world, not to mention an irritating and yet nearly always wise voice in her head, a bodyguard who is simply too good looking to be real and a whole new bunch of friends, each equally as extraordinary as it appears she has turned out to be.

Witches, warlocks, black and white magic and an adventure any ordinary girl could only ever dream of. Welcome to Esther's far-from-ordinary world.
