Mirella wants to be a normal college student...but she's far from normal. Since she was born, her mother has been hiding the truth. Mirella is a descendent of a powerful bloodline that spans centuries, a bloodline that gives her an uncontrollable sixth sense. Masked men desire her blood. Strangers long for her to join their cause, and a gorgeous man with magic of his own seeks to forge a forbidden bond between them.

Mirella has let go of her old life. As the heart maiden, her duty is to protect her people and seek out the precious heart flowers that keep magic flowing through their veins. There's only one problem...Mirella doesn't want any part in it. Then her enclave falls ill, and Mirella alone has the power to find the cure before it's too late. She embarks on a quest to heal her clan, a journey full of monsters and deception, where friends turn on friends and Mirella begins a romance that is sure to be forbidden. But the biggest betrayal is yet to come...and the cure might break her heart.

When alchemists invade her enclave, earth elemental Cora has one order to follow: Take the magical animals to safety—even if that means betraying her heart and leaving everyone she loves behind.

Mirella lives and breathes for her people—but her heart is broken. The man she loves is engaged to someone else, and his sense of duty is stronger than his affection for her. When Mirella’s friend Cora receives notice that tziganes from her enclave might still be alive, Mirella and her friends decide to investigate. As they piece together the mystery of the wiped-out clan, Mirella begins experiencing strange visions and whispers, voices that twist and warp her mind. Afraid she’s going crazy, Mirella pushes it all deep down and focuses on the battle that waits on the horizon.

"I’m losing my mind, and it’s because of my magic. It won’t be long before I become like her—before I become a monster". Mirella is suffering under the pressure of being the Heart Maiden. Her friends are keeping their distance, and she’s been abandoned by the man she loves. She’s never felt more alone. Then the mysterious Kane shows up, and Mirella’s feelings are called into question. The enclave is tossed into chaos as revenants infiltrate the camp and begin stealing souls

Mirella has failed in her duties as Heart Maiden. Distracted by past romances and unable to properly summon her powers, Mirella has left her enclave vulnerable. Then the worst happens—she slips fully into madness. Mirella is taken away to a facility where she’ll be held against her will, until the council decides the day of her execution. Even worse, the tziganes have taken her love, Kane, as prisoner.

The conflict between the tziganes and the alchemists has turned into war. Led by Damara, the alchemists are intent on destroying the enclave once and for all…and they’ll summon hell itself in order to commit genocide. But what’s unleashed isn’t tamable, nor is it able to be stopped. To save the people she loves, Mirella must team up the enemies she despises the most—and bind her soul to the man willing to do anything to protect her. Time’s up for Mirella. It’s either survival or extinction.
