Ancient power. Three fated heirs. One woman who must claim her place among them... or watch their world burn. When Marigold is ripped from her quiet life of anonymity and thrust into the ruthless halls of Wickem Academy, she uncovers a legacy steeped in secrets and magic—one tied to her father’s treason and a necromantic bloodline that marks her as both a threat and a target. To survive, she must navigate a world of cutthroat politics, ancient magic, and dangerous alliances. Three dangerously compelling heirs—Cyrus, the fire-wielding warrior haunted by his mother's death; Elio, the illusionist prince masking pain behind perfect charm; and Keane, the quiet portal mage carrying shadows in his soul—stand between her and the answers she desperately seeks. Bound by ancient power and their own dark secrets, these heirs can't decide whether to protect, claim, or destroy her. As corruption spreads through Wickem's magic, Marigold must master her newfound abilities and uncover the truth about her father's death. Trust becomes her deadliest gamble—especially when her power may be the key to saving not just the heirs, but magic itself. Welcome to Wickem, where bloodlines reign supreme, old magic stirs in the shadows, and the heart's pull can be the most dangerous magic of all. ——- If you love steamy, why choose paranormal romance with enemies to lovers, fish out of water, forced proximity, and magic inheritances, you'll adore this new series by USA Today bestselling author Cali Mann.
