A dragon within, a love she can’t have, and a destiny that could shatter the world… or save it.
Sixteen-year-old Cee Klinger is destined for heartbreak and she knows it. She's helplessly in love with Marcus, her childhood best friend. But soon they will change, transforming for the first time into whichever animal Clan they belong to, and once they join those Clans, they may never see one another again.
Cee is desperate to make the most of their remaining time, but after Marcus's brother leaves to join the Aerie, Marcus begins pulling away. And then Cee discovers she's harboring a dragon named Livian within herself, and the situation rapidly becomes volatile. Dragons are thought to be extinct, but Livian is very real. Powerful. Demanding. And potentially dangerous. Marcus begs her to have him removed by the ruling Magi Clan, but Cee begins to wonder whether it's worth losing a part of herself for a crush who can never return her love.
