Unwelcome news. A shocking incident. And a terrible choice….

Holly's in trouble; her magic is growing faster than her control of it.

After an incident she flees the Ball in disarray.

But all is not well in the mountains.

A dryad lies near death and suspicion points at the humans.

Halfway through Holly's lessons, Leoflynn disappears.

And her father finally loses his tolerance for all things magical and decides they must leave the mountains for good.

Unable to persuade him otherwise, Holly must choose between her friends and her father.

But things are far from simple, and there are so many unanswered questions.

Who would hurt a dryad?

What has happened to Leoflynn?

And how can Holly move back to town, when she may be a danger to those around her?

Join Holly as her journey becomes darker and more exciting, culminating in the sequel, Holly Ablaze (due later in 2019).
