A Chalice of Wind #1



The first installment in the supernatural Balefire series follows a seventeen-year-old who has to navigate newly revealed abilities and secret magical lineages.

“The action builds toward a tantalizing twist that will leave readers eager for future books in the Balefire series.”—Booklist

Thais Allard has just lost her father in a tragic accident, and now she must leave the only home she’s ever known to live with a total stranger in New Orleans. In this new place she will discover secrets that will shatter everything she’s ever believed . . .

Clio Martin has lived in New Orleans her entire life—which is as long as she’s known that she’s a witch, born with magick in her blood. But the truth of her heritage and power run far deeper than she ever realized . . .

Sharing a bond they never imagined, Thais and Clio are about to cross paths for the first time—and nothing will ever be the same.
