Publisher's summary
Magic. Romance. Adventure.
In a world where humans, elves, and inferniths—hybrid beings half-human, half-demons like muses and vampires—coexist, an ancient danger awakens.
On the eve of her 19th birthday, JudyAnn discovers her true identity: she is a geminie, heiress to an almost extinct magical lineage. She and three other geminies, the last of their kind, are brought together and taken to the great city of Godwynn to learn the basics of magic and discover their unique powers with Vincent, an enigmatic vampire-sorcerer.
The vampires, these inferniths she has always feared, then take on a new dimension through Vincent, whose mysterious demeanor and piercing gaze overturn all her convictions.
Faced with the threat of Kendrick, a feared dark mage, JudyAnn is forced to hide her true nature and quickly master her powers to protect herself.
Between her magic lessons, investigations, and missions, JudyAnn will learn that the truth is seldom simple and will question her beliefs about love, loyalty, and her own power.
As the old magician Edgar Grimm Mérindol will tell her: 'It is not our origins that define us, it is our choices.'
Embark on a fantastic epic, filled with colorful characters, where deceptive appearances give way to a truth more surprising than fiction.
Perfect for fans of Harry Potter and Twilight, this story with magic and romance will lead you in a world like no others…

A Magical Fantasy
I was entertained by this book; however, there were some things that left me disquieted. I enjoyed the worldbuilding, the various mythological creatures, the overall theme of good versus evil, and the idea that beings often have prejudices against other beings because they were different and not necessarily because their nature was inherently evil. While listening to the audiobook, I got the sense that the author was rather young in her style of writing; however, since I've found out that the story was originally written in French and then translated, I wondered if that youthful style was due to the translation and not the age of the author. When I first started listening to the audiobook, I thought Emma Sage's narration was choppy and there were quite a lot of slight pauses that were unnecessary and irritating. I listened to the audiobook at a slightly faster pace and that helped with my irritation at all the pauses, and I began to enjoy her clear diction. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which included my honest opinions regarding this story.
