Escaping a life she never wanted, Nya expects Wilderwind Acres to be the fresh start she desperately needs. Instead, she inherits a homestead that seems determined to make her regret ever setting foot on its land. First the plants move. Then the creatures close in. All while something ancient begins stirring beneath the earth.

​

But the secrets that lie hidden within Wilderwind have attracted Jarethsia’s most corrupt and merciless figures, and they are willing to do whatever it takes to either uncover them or bury them deeper.

​

Help is something Nya has come to refuse, but when Kaylen and Alder become unwanted allies, she must decide what’s more dangerous: accepting their help, or facing the wilderness alone.

​

With her family’s judgment still haunting every choice, Nya must learn what she’s truly capable of before Wilderwind Acres becomes her grave.

​

Trust is fragile. Magic is unstable. And nowhere is safe.
