Falling in love isn't the only problem for Ava Hannigan.

Seventeen-year-old Ava has always yearned for a normal life, but normalcy slips further away when she discovers she can breathe underwater-a clear sign her powers as a witch are awakening. With her initiation into the Elemental Enchanters, the most powerful coven in existence, looming, Ava feels the weight of a destiny she never wanted.

Her only solace comes from Peter, a human who shares her pain of growing up motherless. But their deep connection, which is forbidden, puts them both at risk. Just as Ava grapples with her new identity, a dark force reawakens. Devon, a vengeful enemy with a thirst for power, learns of Ava's newfound status and reignites a centuries-old war that threatens to destroy everything she holds dear.

Now, Ava must embrace the very thing she fears-her witch identity-to save Peter and protect humanity from a fate worse than death. But with ancient powers at play and the lines between good and evil blurring, can Ava find the strength to fight for her future, or will the darkness that seeks to claim consume her?
