The South Haven Academy for the
Gifted and Talented (SHAGT) not only houses the exceptionally intelligent, but
unknown to the normal students, a number of “gifted and talented” witches
attend class with them every day.
Among the student body is
fifteen-year-old Alexia Wick, a witch of the white-magic-practicing Alerium
coven. Like the regular students, Alexia feels the pressure to succeed and meet
her parents’ expectations, albeit with slightly different conditions. Rather
than fretting about finals or college placement tests, she is in an entirely
different arena—that of the Annual Trials.
In this prestigious competition
among the most powerful witches in the country, Alexia must prove her magic and
spell-casting abilities in order to advance in her skillset and bring triumph
to Alerium. Her focus is distracted when the handsome and confident Kaleb moves
to town.
Preparing for battle, falling in
love—yes, Alexia is just like the other students at SHAGT. But with betrayal
and death on the line, do the stakes of the competition and a romance shadowed
by a dark, life-threatening secret even compare to those of a normal teenager?
