She’s a demon with fire in her blood, a voice in her head, and a target on her back.

Nineteen-year-old Alina Rose thought slaving away at the local Taco Express was rock bottom—until a stranger in a nightclub tells her she’s not broken … just not human.

​

Dragged forcibly to the elite Astaroth Academy, hidden high in the Alps, Alina is thrown into a world of elemental magic, deadly rituals, and demons who party like gods and fight like monsters. But Alina’s unique magic draws the attention of the wrong kind of people, namely the Reavers, a rebel faction that wants to use her power to break open the gates between realms.

​

The only one who sees through her chaos is Aran May—brooding, brilliant, infuriating—and off-limits in every way. As her bond with the sharp-tongued voice in her mind (Machina) deepens, Alina must untangle a web of lies, survive the trials of the academy, and choose: burn down the world, or become the girl who saves it.

​

Great for fans of Zodiac Academy and Demon Queen Trials, this slow-burn romantasy blends sharp banter, deadly secrets, and a heroine who might be her own worst enemy.
