"What do you want Little Flame?"
It was a question Kienna never dared to ask herself.
Raised behind the impenetrable walls of RiverStorm, Kienna was destined to serve, to protect her city from the evil festering beyond the barrier after the War of Liberation. She and four other Guardians were gifted magic by their great and powerful King...until she threw that gift back in his face.
Because Kienna discovered the King's secret.
When RiverStorm's lies shatter, Kienna makes the impossible choice: help a rebel army tear down the barrier and run. She never expected the other Guardians to follow. Now, hunted and broken, they discover a world far different than the one they were taught to fear. A world that forces them to question everything, including themselves.
As loyalties fracture and kingdoms prepare for war, Kienna must decide who she truly is: the obedient weapon the King forced...or the flame that will burn his empire to ash.
One Little Flame to defy fate, if she has the strength to let it burn.

In the process, she learns the weight of trust and that love may not be the weakness she once feared.

The Guardians were trained to protect River Storm.
Now they must decide whether to leave the war behind and claim the lives they were denied… or become the spark that burns the king’s empire to ash.
