At Soulfield, you survive your demons by integrating them.
Every night, he comes for her. She can't move, can't see his face. She can only feel his claws tracing her skin, his breath hot against her throat, his voice in her skull: We are bound by the cords of fate. Her body responds even as her mind screams to fight. Who, or what, is the demon that haunts her dreams?
For 18 years, Midnight O'Young has suppressed her gifts to keep the demons at bay. Now, admitted to Soulfield, she is ready to uncover the truth about the place her parents fled. But soul magic is drawn directly from the psyche, and Midnight’s subconscious is a minefield.
As Midnight's magic awakens, it surges beyond anything the school has seen in generations, and into something it fears.
She's caught between three forces: Alisdair, the protective heir whose unwavering presence pierces her walls; Jack, a volatile outsider who mirrors and understands her most shameful secrets; and the possessive demon who whispers he's the only one she needs, and demands nothing less than her total surrender.
As Midnight fights for her body, mind, and soul, she realizes the enemy may be closer than she could've imagined. When people close to her start to get attacked, all eyes turn to Midnight.
To survive, she must do what her parents forbade: stop running from her demons, and start embracing them.
At Soulfield, you don't kill your monsters. You integrate them.
