◆BOOK I OF 'THE CALLING' SERIES◆ Harriet Summers has always believed in soulmates-the kind that ignite fireworks and make the world sharper, brighter, and full of meaning. But reality? It's nothing like the stories she's clung to. Fresh out of high school and stuck in a life that feels like an old, faded photograph, she longs for something more. Then, Morgana Ravenspell Academy calls. A world where vampires rule the night, cat shifters prowl, and mermaids whisper secrets beneath moonlit waters. Magic crackles in the air, but Harriet's focus doesn't waver-her soulmate is out there, the missing piece that can steady her unraveling powers. But fate has other plans. Because the one person who challenges her, infuriates her, and sets her world ablaze isn't the soulmate she expected. And when an ancient darkness rises, threatening to tear everything apart, Harriet must make an impossible choice: her best friend or her destined love? ************************************* Nicholas Sinclairley is a force of nature, sharp, untouchable, and dangerously in control. Power bends at his will, and emotions? They're nothing more than a liability. He's spent his life mastering the art of distance. Then she crashes into his world. Harriet Summers. Reckless. Stubborn. A walking contradiction wrapped in magic and chaos. She's hunting for her soulmate, convinced it's someone else. But Nicholas knows better. The pull between them isn't ordinary-it's wildfire, and every moment with her threatens to burn through the ice he's carefully built around himself. As the shadow of a 1000-year-old enemy looms closer, Nicholas is forced to make a choice of his own: fight for Harriet's heart or let her go before love destroys them both. Because for the first time in his life, power isn't enough. And losing her might mean losing himself. --------------------------------------- This story is an original work by Hazel Brown.
