Chapter 1: part 1.

Ivy Morgan thought her biggest problem was being late for college.
Then the stranger with the icy‑blue eyes started watching her.
Then the storms followed her.
Then the manor opened its doors.

Blackwater Ridge has always been a quiet town - until Ivy discovers she's the first hybrid in history to survive to twenty‑one. A secret the coven would kill for.

Nathan, the ancient guardian who promised her mother he'd protect her, knows what's coming.
Alex, the vampire who's been watching her for weeks, is the only one she trusts - and the one she shouldn't.

Her magic is waking.
The coven is coming.
And Ivy is no longer safe in her own skin.

Midnight won't destroy her.
What comes after might.
