| Summary: | On an island built from ash and shrouded in fire, phoenix racing is a sport just as profitable as it is deadly. Seventeen-year-old Kel Varra and her team of underdogs, the Crimson Howlers, are desperate to win the annual races and the fortune that comes with it. But the Howlers need a new rider, which leads Kel to join forces with Warren "Coup" Coupers <U+2013> an arrogant rival she can't get out of her head. As tensions rise on and off the track, Kel's home is mistakenly burned down, and she's forced to take a job from a mysterious tech mogul with an unsettling interest in her phoenix, Savita. This sets in motion a conspiracy that threatens everyone Kel cares for, especially Coup, for whom her embers of resentment are quickly igniting into something dangerously new. Heart-pounding pages full of steamy romance, fiery confessions, political scheming, and volatile magic culminate in a final twist readers will never see coming. |
