Description
"Sacrifice is a choice that must be made." Melissa has resigned herself to the heartache and loss that have become a constant darkness in her life. Despite the unyielding support of her friends, and the boy she loves, the days begin to seem like a futile struggle after watching her only remaining relative die in front of her eyes. It would be impossible not to give in to the numbness of pain - if it weren't for the child growing inside of her. After the revelation of her pregnancy, Melissa discovers that there is more to the child's fate than she imagined - and consequently, forces that threaten its life. She and her friends are thus taken in by the Order of the White Sages, a secret organization of witches that her parents had been a part of, who task themselves with protecting Melissa and the child from harm. Unknown magics are afoot as new enemies and allies come into the fold, and Melissa and the others must band together with the Sages as they tread the waters of fortune and destiny, and keep abreast of the truth of the magical world while trying to keep each other safe.
