Book Description

Two women discover friendship, adventure, and danger in a hidden world full of lost memories and magic. Eka stays in motion since losing her family, running from one adrenaline rush to the next and away from any connection. Christelle loves her close-knit family, but longs to spread her wings and explore the world away from their protectiveness. When an accident leaves Eka at Christelle’s doorstep, memories of magic, hidden within our everyday world, come flooding back to both of them. As they find themselves awakened to this new world, they also find that no one around them is aware of anything unusual, leaving them to navigate this reality together. At first, they seem unable to work with each other. Christelle is skeptical and cautious while Eka is ready to dive in blind-folded. But somehow, as they stumble through each new aspect of the magic, Eka finds herself trusting someone for the first time, while Christelle begins to find a strength outside her family. And, as their friendship grows, unique magical abilities grow within them. But soon a dangerous and destructive force, connected to their lost past, returns, destroying people around them and dredging up the darkest moments of their lives. When this force takes a personal interest in the two, both women will need to draw on their wits and fledgling magic if they have any chance of stopping it. But will their new abilities be strong enough when that moment arrives? Or will their newly discovered fears from the past cause them to fall back on old ways and destroy the friendship they’ll need to save themselves and everyone they love.
