Nemea Jones is a nobody? or so she thought. But after learning she's Bloodline-a segment of humanity infused with the blood of the higher races-she embarks on a quest to draw out her latent elemental magic, certain that great power lies within her, even if thus far her attempts have failed to bear fruit. Until one morning when Nemea finds herself lying naked and sore amongst the rubble of a ruined cabin, missing twelve hours' worth of memories. In their place, she has gained the ability to throw the world into chaos every time she feels even a flicker of emotion. And the arrival of a dark, devastatingly handsome stranger threatens to fan those sparks into full-on flames. From the small, exclusive art institute on the Puget Sound to the depths of Tartarus, Nemea will pursue power and mysteries she never dreamed possible, all while being forced to reckon with her strange fascination for the beings she encounters-and their mutual desire for her.
