Seventeen-year-old Salish has spent years tamping down the ember in her chest and pretending she’s just another girl at Wellsworth—until a party photo goes viral the same week the regime passes the Compliance & Propriety Act, a law designed to “weed out” witches by criminalising women's rights. Overnight, Salish becomes a target…and the ember becomes a blaze.

As curfews tighten and informants multiply, Salish finds a found family in three girls, and together their coven uncovers a forbidden library, test the edges of their power (hello, invisibility cloaks and mind-wipe snaps), and start to ask dangerous questions about the Council that rules them all. 

A long-buried prophecy claims Salish is the answer to collective magic waning, but complicating everything is the boy at school who feels inevitable…and the President’s beautiful, terrifying son who claims Salish for reasons written in blood. 

When the Council turns her scandal into a witch-hunt, Salish must choose—hide what she is, or ignite the storm she was born to lead.  

This is high-stakes romantasy where self-discovery is a weapon, love is leverage, and the first battle ends on a gasp-out-loud cliffhanger.
