Kara Lane is a young adult that views her life as nothing more than ordinary as she starts Turtle Cove University, hoping that college will bring her something more in life. She resents her parents for neglecting her, not knowing that they all are part of something bigger and it was only to give her a normal life for as long as possible; but, that all is about to change. In the campus library she stumbles upon a thick, dusty, old, ancient book with a picture of the necklace her parents gave her years ago. Interestingly enough she finds that her necklace is the Calix, it holds the symbol of the dark moon and emerald crystal. It seems to be an ancient necklace that stays within her family, selecting its individuals who possess great power to take on the responsibility of being the most powerful witch. After meeting a mysterious guy on campus named Ares, she shortly finds out that he is part warrior, part guardian; one who is selected to protect witches and battle evil. Ares and Kara fight against their chemistry because of the one cardinal rule... that a guardian may not love the very one they are chosen to protect. As she learns about the life her parents have shielded her from she is faced with great obstacles. Her days are filled with hunters, dark magic, warriors, forbidden spells, unearthly realms, enchanting creatures all tied to her ancient artifact. Kara will have to learn quickly from her guardian, invoking who she truly is, so she can battle her family’s dark past, and the devious, treacherous, powerful souls with a venomous agenda. In the end she will master her abilities to help her coven, save her parents, and put a stop to the threat that lies ahead. But at what cost?
