*** 2019 FIRST PLACE WINNER OF THE GERTRUDE WARNER AWARD***
After an unfortunate incident during her school science fair, Vivian's mom and dad agree the time has come to reveal their long-hidden secret...fire powers run in the family and her entire childhood was a lie!
Vivian's worries quickly shift from life after graduation to mastering her newly found powers. That is, until her parents go missing. With her magic (and life) out of control she follows the trail of clues to RISE, an academy that trains demi-gods and fabled creatures spy skills for blending into our non-magical world. School isn't about fighting for good grades anymore. It's about fighting for her life!
With the help of her best friend, an errant god's son, and a flighty fairy, Vivian will need to find her parents and prevent a war between gods and men...while also avoiding burning her life to the ground.
