Searing Fire

In a land where magic is feared and monsters rule the night, their journey becomes the key to survival. At thirteen, Ari already knows that life is far from easy. But when tragedy strikes, she is forced to leave her remote village and everything she knows behind and journey to the king’s City in search of her only surviving relative. What awaits her is a world far more dangerous—and far more magical—than she ever imagined. Wes, a young soldier hiding the fact that he is also a mage, serves in a kingdom where magic is feared and mages are hunted. To survive, he must keep his powers secret, even when the king commands him to undertake a perilous mission that could change the fate of the realm. In a land haunted by undead hordes, ancient dragons, and forgotten magical creatures, Ari and Wes are thrust together on a treacherous quest. Their path is filled with dark secrets, powerful enemies, and long-buried truths. To survive, they must rely on every skill they possess—even the abilities they’ve yet to discover. Perfect for fans of epic fantasy, young adult adventure, and tales of hidden magic, this is a story of courage, destiny, and the power that awakens when darkness rises.
