Running away from the deadly Extremists seemed like the right thing to do.

But in Vela's escape with Linc to a hidden, remote place in Northern Canada, she soon finds being on the run is just as dangerous. Crossing Elemental territory lines where boundaries are the most volatile, and prejudices run hot, Vela and Linc struggle to stay alive.

Limping into the uppermost reaches of Canada to their off-the-grid sanctuary, they discover a utopia. Families of intermarriages, couples with differing elements, have produced children with multiple gifts and Vela and Linc see what their world could be if their clans stopped fighting.

The answer is to unite the clans, which a long-awaited prophecy promises if the Chosen Child comes. Vela is forced to accept she might be the mother of this Child, but is she willing to be a part of the prophecy?

To complicate her life further, Rayne, a resident of the community, is determined to win Vela's attentions. Her Intended bond with Linc doesn't stop him from trying everything he can to entice her.

Can Linc win the fight for her heart? Will this prophecy be her undoing or the Elementals' salvation?
